Internship in Taiwan

My name is Izel Parada, I'm Honduran and I have lived here for four years in the city of Taipei where I am currently studying International Business and Trade Program at Ming Chuan University.

After four years of first landed on this island 台湾 (Taiwan - Taiwan Republic of China) I decided to take advantage of all the opportunities presented to explore. The adventure in this time is dedicated to Taizhong, the third largest city in this small island.

Through the Volunteer Internship Program of Agro-tourism for International Students organized by Taiwan Leisure Agriculture Association and supervised by The Council of Agriculture Executive Yuan, was achieved a contact with a family owner of this restaurant in Taizhong, who agreed to receive me and my partner in their new project, to exchange experiences and help them to promote this new Agro-tourism proposal that the Taiwanese government is encouraging.

On August 5, I started this new adventure; I arrived at the High Speed Train Station at Taizhong City at 17:00 hrs. local time , after waiting a couple of minutes  Phoebe , the daughter of the owner arrived to pick me up to take me to the restaurant whose name is 伏 见 稻荷 生机 园地, (Fujian dao he sheng ji  yuan di). 

The February 14th of 2013, the  “Rice and Lotus- Vitality Garden”  opened its doors to customers with a new proposed service area , here is served “All You Can Eat” vegetarian food especially , however they also serve red and white meats and seafood a la carte.
