The weather in Taipei has been sunny and very humid. The sun is strong and the air feels warm and heavy, so I start sweating after just a few minutes of walking outside. I've learned to always carry water, sunscreen and an umbrella, since it can also start raining out of nowhere!
There are a bunch of black Muscovy ducks on the campus of National Taiwan University! As NTU has a very big pond on campus, these ducks like to rest around it. The ducks have primarily black feathers and feature bumpy, bright red, warty skin around their eyes and bills.
I went to the tallest building in Taipei, called Taipei 101, which is an iconic landmark and symbol of Taiwan. From there, I took one of the world's fastest elevators to the top floor, where I saw the sunset overlooking the entirety of Taipei. The sunset illuminated the buildings, making it seem like I was truly on top of the world.
