<h1>We Ate Taiwan</h1>
</div>
<p class="introduction">In 2009, my girlfriend (now wife) and I visited her home country of Taiwan. During our two week vacation, I wrote daily notes of my experiences and together we took over a thousand photos. Those notes and photos have been compiled into this travel journal.</p>

<h2>Resources</h2>
<p>In preparation for my trip to Taiwan, I consulted the Lonely Planet's Taiwan travel guide (ISBN: 978-1-74104-548-2). The book might be best for someone who is going to be traveling light and touring all over the island (perhaps a college kid backpacking on vacation) but I found some of it to be really useful.</p>
<p>Taiwanese food can be very different. The base ingredients include many fruits, vegetables, and animal parts that we in the Western Hemisphere are not familiar with. The "Eating China" website provides a great <a href="http://www.eatingchina.com/articles/taiwan-food.htm">primer on Taiwanese cuisine</a> and links to several recipes.</p>
<h2>About the Date Format</h2>
<p>My travel journal contains one entry for each day of my trip. The date of each entry is based on the Taiwanese calendar. Their calendar begins in 1911, which is the year <a href="http://sun.yatsen.gov.tw/">Dr. Sun Yat-Sen</a> established the Republic of China. As a result, the western year 2009 is year 98 on the Taiwanese calendar. I have attempted to follow the standard ordering of the date numerals, starting with the year (年, nián), then the month (月, yuè), and finally the day (日, rì).</p>
