Hipstamatic

As you might already know, I do love making pictures. So I was happy to find an application for my phone called "Hipstamatic". The original is an old plastic camera from the 80's that purposely messes up your pictures a little bit. For a surprising effect. In the application you can choose your lens, type of flash and type of film roll. The effect won't be visible until after you took a picture through a small lens.

So here are a few shots I took last weeks in Taipei. Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did taking them! As a friend of me already mentioned, it's a bit like falling through a time machine.

How am I doing? Good! Life in Taiwan is nice, even though the weather is getting a bit hotter now. I do love our apartment! I know I mentioned it before, but it is so relaxing to come home. Most of the time that is. At this moment the neighbours upstairs are now drilling the whole floor away.... :-(

I'm still teaching English at the same place, at the same time I'm trying not to lose my urban planning background. I just finished an article about the urban planning in Taipei. Since the area I'm living in is going to have a lot more opportunities (read: money) next year, I wanted to point out to them how they can best spent it. I'm also sending it to some newspapers, hopefully with some success! But I'll update my blog if there is any progress in that area.

Jennifer's work is also fine. She's pretty busy from time to time, especially when there are some trips to Japan for the APEC meetings. But in general we can spent a lot of time together! :-)

Warm greetings from Taipei, until my next blog!
