This is my bedroom, and yes I did clean it just to take the picture. This is my favorite place to relax at home. I sleep, play video games, and read (notice the large stack of books on the chest next to the bed?) in this room.

This is my house. It's two stories with a two car garage. In the picture you can see my mom's silver Volvo, my dad's black minivan, and my sister's red car. My mom and dad, me, my sister Morgan, and my brothers Adam, Andrew, and Aaron, as well as our dog Copper and two guinea pigs call this home.

This is my car. It's a '99 Mercury Mystique. It's not much, but it runs well enough and gets me to where I need to go. In case you were wondering, the giant dent in the back door is due to someone backing into my car in the Wal-Mart parking lot last spring. Overall, it's been a good car and I'm hoping to sell it before I go to Taiwan.

My First Post

Hey all!

This blog is for everyone to see what I am up to during my coming year in Taipei, Taiwan. The next couple of months will be me documenting my life in America for my host family(ies) to read about. Once I get to Taiwan, I won't be able to respond to any comments/email due to the immersion process, so please don't be offended if I don't reply.

Thanks!
Eric
