A More Detailed Itinerary

This has some more detail, but there are still a lot of blanks to fill in.


I'm hoping I will be able to hook up with my good buddy J-Diamond (Dusty) in either Taipei or Tokyo....or both. He has been in Asia since the fall and will probably be there until mid summer. This is a picture of him in front of/under the Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia. I'm hoping he can meet me for a picture in front of Taipei 101, the second tallest building in the world.


Here is the tallest building in the world, Burj Khalifa in Dubai. Nice photo Dusty. For those of you that don't know, Dusty and I studied Architecture together at Lawrence Tech, so we get a kick out of this stuff.

Some Details

As most of you already know, I am working on my MBA at the University of Michigan - Flint. I am pursuing the degree to help me move up the managerial ranks at the County. I am taking all of my elective classes in International Business in order to receive an International Business concentration, which is a subject I enjoy and is more of a resume builder. One of my International classes is a Study Abroad trip to Taiwan and Japan. I will be studying their ways of doing business as well as their cultures.

I leave American soil April 27, 2011 and return May 15, 2011. I will be traveling with 19 other students and two professors (who speak the languages). Here is a link to my tentative itinerary: http://japantaiwan.wordpress.com/itinerary/

To my biking buddies - While I am in Taiwan I will be visiting Giant.

Getting Started

Stay tuned for details of my Asia trip. I will be making posts leading up to my trip with an itinerary, etc. I will also be making posts while I'm traveling.
