since i stepped on the land of United State, my life has totally changed. i have no family here, i have no friends here, even i have not found me a place to live in at the first day when i got here. during this whole journey i am alone. everything i am familiar with was gone except the courage of innocence ( i mean all things i'll face to if i don't know them then i won't fear them). to travel alone is not a big deal to most of Americans but me. fortunately, i am the person who is quite independent.
everything is new but that's fine with me. the only thing which i don't get used to is transportation. in taiwan, it is very convinient to go everywhere whether by bus or riding scooter because Taiwan is a small tiny island, that's why each city is not far from each other. and you will find that it is very easy to get the things you want at any time. for example, when you are hungry at midnight, all you need to do is just go down stairs and you can easily find something food to eat because night market might be just next to your building.
yet in US, the land is so vast that each city is far from each other. without transportation, i can't go anywhere except to take public transportation. however, public transportation is not so popullar here because most residents have their own vehicles.
so, most of time i have togo to store to buy groceries by walk. and this is the most challange to me because it take me an hour to go to store back and forth. i don't think that i'll get used to it.

Yeah, the public transportation thing is a big problem for most foreigners.
