Taiwan Experiences

Hi, My name is Apinun, student of Rajamangala university of Technology Lanna(RMUTL), ChiangMai. I got a good chance to join the NPTU Intelligent Robot Creative Design Camp at National Pingtung University, Taiwan on January 28th — February 5th 2018

This trip, I went with 2 younger members. One is Mr.Sukit and the last is Mr.Tawat. We started this trip by taking off from ChiangMai international airport by Thai VietJet Air flight VZ111 (A320) to Suvanabhumi airport,arrived on 23.06 PM (31 minutes late).

We had to depart from Thailand on January 27th because the air fare on 28th was very expensive (2times). To save budjet, we must sleep at the airport this night.

After finished immigration, We had been supported by a set of pizza, and King Power Lounge during waiting to board.

We went to Kaohsiung International Airport by Thai Smile Airways, flight WE688 (A320), arrived on 14.14PM (5 minutes early).

We called to The Riverside Hotel International for airport shuttle service. When I was on the car, I wasn’t used to because they drive by right hand side, but Thailand drive by left.

Arrived

I got some advice from someone who had already been to Taiwan, I needed to taste Taiwan milk tea with bubbles. Exactly, it’s better than Thailand. I drank ever day.

I travelled in Kaohsiung by walking to market and taking MRT to MEGA Far Eastern Department Store.

On January 28th, we turned to the airport at 15.00PM to meet the NPTU staff.

and we meet the students to Management X Culture X New Southbound Camp from RMUTL.

We meet students from Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi (RMUTT)and Chiang Rai Rajabhat University(CRRU). They all join the NPTU Intelligent Robot Creative Design Camp too.
