2015 was a year of change for me and looking back. This year will be a year for me to focus on gaining wisdom. Gaining insides to things that I still lack knowledge of and learning to handle certain situations is what I certainly seek.
Wisdom comes after one has experience and learned in life. It is something that is accumulated in time.
I seek to gain more wisdom in
the Bible
Leading the kids in their walk with GOD
knowing how to communicate efficiently with R and the kids.
building up passive income
motivating the people around me to achieving excellence
different languages
how to become a better me.
There are many decisions that one has to make on a daily basis which may drastically alter the fortunes that one faces. Wisdom is certainly important to make sure that one makes the RIGHT decisions.
Olive Tree, an inn we stayed in Miaoli has to be one of the best decorated accommodation I’ve seen.
Side view of the inn
It has a pleasant homely feel to the place. Every part of the place was beautifully decorated.
A cute looking cat
I saw many cat related artifacts at the inn. In fact they could be see almost at every corner of the eating hall/ reception.

Decorations on the table outside
We only stayed at Olive Tree for a night and arrived there extremely late at night so was not really able to explore the surroundings. It was raining heavily through the night making it one of the coldest night the kids and I experienced in Taiwan.
One of the family rooms that we booked- they had two queen size beds.
The sitting area of the room
The other family room
We booked 2 family rooms and had the whole 2nd floor of the inn to ourselves. It was a rather small place as there were only 3 floors of guest rooms in the inn.
The spiral staircase that led to the guestrooms
It was certainly a challenge to get to our accommodation that night as we had to climb the spiral staircase with all the heavy luggage.
The view from the window the next morning
It was extremely foggy the next morning as it had been raining the whole night. A lovely sight awaited us when we started out day. It was the first time for the kids to be so near the mountaintop. It was certainly refreshing waking up to so much greenery around.
The small alley leading to the breakfast area
As the main path was extremely wet and slippery we took the side path down the steps.

The table decorations
The yummy breakfast we had
The kids happily tucking into their breakfast
The breakfast portion served was really huge and the kids and I had trouble finishing our meal.
Waiting for our pick up at the entrance
This is certainly a place we would consider staying again if we visit Miaoli.
