It’s been too long since I’ve been back for Duanwu: the new zongzi flavors are startling me

A book I loved so much I brought it along with me throughout my summer travels - finished reading it a second time at Shaolin Temple in Henan, China.
Go read it. "The Minotaur at Calle Lanza" by @zeets.bsky.social

For younger readerly me, this bookstore was as formative as the classes across the street

My very 文青 afternoon continued into evening: a chamber concert celebrating the 160th birthday of Debussy, held at the lush and atmospheric Belle Époque inspired #antiquebar1900, located in a historic building in Dadaocheng.
(I love Taipei)
