201704 An Amigo Couple Visited

201704  A Costa Rica Couple Visited

It is the 3rd time that Lin visited Taiwan and the 1st time.for his wife Yesenia. Due to geographic reason, Latin America people not quite often tour to Taiwan as well as Asia. Lots of things are different between both sides of the Pacific Ocean, so the culture shock is not unique to them.

During a 12-day stay on this Island, we, the relatives and Lin's father Thomas's best friend Joseph took them from the west side to the east side of Taiwan. 

This article is kept short intentionally and put lots of photos of L&Y, just for their reminders. If more photos was provided from other people, I will add them here from time to time. 

Lin is my nephew, a Chinese and Costa Rica hybrid. L&Y got merried on Dec. 2015. 


Welcomed by Uncle Joseph at THSR Chiayi Station
