Chi-Chia's blog

Paid leave should be spent catching up on sleep

I'm a software engineer living in Taiwan, and also a husband and a dad.

I enjoy traveling in Japan, and I also love manga, detective novels, sci-fi, and American TV series. This blog records my life, interests, and some work and thoughts.

This is my personal blog. I mainly organize travel logs, life updates, and a few personal thoughts. Many of my past trips only lived in private journals, and I plan to bring them over here gradually.

Besides travel, I also write about work, daily life, reading, and the occasional idea worth keeping.

A lot of older trip posts were only in my private journal. I'll keep moving them here so the archive becomes more complete.

I'm planning to write a novel and am still collecting material. I hope that one day I can turn my ideas into words and finish a novel that is truly compelling.
