Finally arriving in Taiwan! What an awesome place. Almost surreal and lots of contrasts, when walking down the busy streets around Taipei 101, and then after a short cab drive stepping into the historical scene downtown at the “Snake Market”. Eating out (literally) on a table at the side of the road in the back street of the market, before taking of for a beer at Hooters which was .. refreshing.
When it comes to business we started of quite far away from having a good agreement with Taiwan Mobile. Still, with some luck and actually hard work – synchronised live with the team in Sweden – we could shake hand with Taiwan Mobile after they’ve lined up on a row starting with the developers and continued with the middle management and finally to the big boss himself. Cards were exchanged, off course. Bowing mandatory.
When leaving, Roger, Tom and I decided to go out for a last dinner while waiting for the airport taxi to arrive. We walked away to some local diner a quarter away from the hotel without telling anyone. After half an hour a guy from the hotel! nudged me polite on the back to tell me that my taxi had arrived and I should get going. A truly amazing find I’d say 🙂
