USA - 2001

The second time I visited USA was when I graduated from the university. I participated in a program, name "Work and Travel in USA" to visit USA for three and half months. I connected with the boss and got the student job when I was in Taiwan. In the first two months, I worked in a restaurant in the North Carolina. After that I traveled around USA and visited some cities.

When 911 happened, I was at Washington DC. Four days later, I visited New York.

It's my first backpacking trip, and it's exactly the trigger for my enthusiasm about traveling.

Indonesia - Bali - Flying in the cockpit - 2001/01/15

January 15, 2001, and unforgettable day, I had the opportunity to sit in the cockpit, flying to Denpasar and back to Taipei. Ten hours in the sky, everything, except for the sun and the stars, is under my feet, and I finally realized what a beautiful sight a bird must see.



Thanks for the senior's project about the workload evaluation of pilots. It was a very valuable experience because at that time I really liked airplanes and wanted to work for the business administration at airlines. :)
