Hualien #1

I managed to infiltrate a group of employees of a publishing company this weekend on their corporate bonding trip into eastern Taiwan. The Taiwanese are quite a clever lot and I could tell they were suspicious from the start. Nobody seemed to believe my cover story of being an unemployed comedian. Except Vicky. She starts laughing everytime she sees my face.

Most of the trip was spent inside a bus. Normally this would be pretty boring, right? The difference here being that we were driving on one of the most dramatic roads you could imagine. Basically, massive cliffs going straight down into the sea, with jungle covering every non vertical surface. As usual, my pictures do no justice to what I saw, and you'll just have to trust me when i say: If you are going to spend a day in a bus, make sure it's a bus going through Hualien in Taiwan.
