Relocating from Taipei to Shanghai

After must uncertainty of dates, I am now confirmed to be moving from Taipei to Shanghai on 6/29. There's been a lot of packing and last minute stuffs (like hair cut, dentist maybe etc etc) these days and yeah in some sense it was quite rushed... I was planning on moving on 7/10 but some stuff came up so the date was shifted forward...

I'm actually working for the same company (Atelligent Global Consulting), just based in a different country.. our China office only started running last year late August and I consider myself lucky to be offered the chance to be so involved in the starting up and running of such a young office.. lots of new stuff to learn, new things to try out in a new market and environment... don't foresee it will be easy but like I say.. I'm still young enough to take these chances...

I will still be back in Taipei, maybe about once every 2 months, depending on the visa duration they give me... only until the whole registration and work permit application is over that I will be able to stay long term in China (these processes take sooo long in China)... so anyway, simply said Taipei will not be that easily rid of me for some time...

In any case, my current Taipei number will not work in China (no roaming on my pre-paid) so if you wanna reach me, just email / MSN / Facebook me (yes I have my means of getting on FB in China)... Thank you all for all the support, help, care and everything in Taiwan these past 1.5 years (nearly)... since my departure is super soon, there wasn't time to organize a get-together, but I definitely hope to see you all when I am back.. or just let me know if you happen to be in Shanghai...

Thanks again, and next updates will be from Shanghai!

Cheers!
