Amy had got a new bike with an extra seat for Lien and together we left home in the morning. At the market, I left them to get some breakfast before I went to the post office. With the food, I sat down in a park and wondered how clean it was
(except some plastic bubble-tea cups and plastic bags) although there was not any dustbin around, something I find a bit annoying, if I have waste like a banana peel and don’t know how to keep it but also find no way to get rid of it. I prepared a package for Sevginaz, the 10y old girl in Urumieh (see day 55-57) that could talk English so well. She was sad when I left (and I was, too) and I wanted to send her “The little prince” as a present for her next birthday in April this year.
I wanted to buy the book in Taipei in Eslite bookstore (see day 211) but Li said she would give me her special edition in Chinese-English-French and Audio. So, this book would be a special present, because it has more than just the story inside to tell.
I added some of the stickers that I had got at Xinguang Junior High School as a present, because Sevginaz can also give them to friends and tell a story.
In Louisa café I started another working session and later continued it in the café/restaurant where Carrie’s friend is chef (see day 216). He suggested a Vegetarian dish, prepared and served it to me and it was great to eat warm crispy leaves mixed with a cold half boiled egg and all the other ingredients.
wrong order of pics, because… 
first I didn’t know if it is for pets or whatever
At 5, I went again to Hyvä
it you see this sign… 
…you should go to that field, so you need to wait 2x at the traffic light 🙁
to meet Amy and Lien, but it was not only meeting, I was invited to dinner by Ela and Robert, Amy’s parents.
I didn’t only enjoy their hospitality and a delicious meal, I also took advantage of the situation and caught again some lines for my “Bürgschaft”-Project.
Amy, Lien and I went back home by bike with a little detour to the little park where Ela danced with her friends nearly every day.
At home, Amy and I made a bilingual story-time for Lien and then Lien and Amy presented a Chinese children’s book to me.
When Neil came home, he, Lien and I went out again to get some food for a second dinner (hm, first for Neil, I guess). Directly neighbouring to the restaurant was a store for music instruments, mainly Ukuleles! I wanted to look inside and didn’t see the glass door, so I heavily crashed against the door and the owners startled rushed out of the back-office, maybe the thought a robber tries to enter? I was a bit dizzy and my forehead hurt but I felt lucky that no glass had broken, neither their door nor my glasses.
When I halfway had recovered, I tried two instruments and was pleased by the sound of one of them and decided to buy it (when I manage to withdraw money, because some problems had occurred recently, and I must find a way to solve them). At home, I also got a Bürgschaft-recording of Neil.
Then, I went to “my” room and wanted to write diary, but I got an email of Monica from Xinguang Junior High School with some feedback, questions and hints of her and her pupils, so I dealt with that to be prepared better for the next presentation and then it was late enough to sleep because another early morning lay in front of me.
