It’s been five years since we’ve moved to Hualian, and two years since we’ve run the minsu business.
These days, Errantry Lodge has been working towards a goal- that one day, Hualian will become one of the must-see destinations to an international tourist. In the past, whenever we had the chance to travel to a foreign tourist attraction, we often lost track of which day of the week it was, because everyday these hot spots were packed with international tourists.
As a new migrant to Hualian, I hope that such phenomomon could be duplicated in Hulian, as I’m sure this will greatly improve the local economy and increase the employment opportunities for local youths.
Ideas as such has turned managing international toursists a dream and ideal goal for Errantry Lodge- for international tourists, they will visit not only on weeknds, but also during weekdays, and I believe this is what Hualianers need, to have holiday everyday, and everyday is a wonderful day.
I want to send out my heart-felt gratitude to the Ministry of Economy for establishing an internet forum for “Minsu Homes.” With their efforts, “Ki Taiwan work in exchange for lodge tour around Taiwan” has attracted thousands of people around the globe. During the summer, 5 international friends were enriched by the experience of “Ki Taiwan Work in exchange for lodge tour around Taiwan.”
They are all the best seeds, and also the best promoters. During the busiest months, these good friends helped maintained the customer satisfaction. As for the international friends, I believe that they will all carry the wonderful memories of in-depth tour and one-month long stay at Hualian and Taitung with them back home.
