Taiwan House

Taiwan House

What do you want in the Taiwan house? What furnishings?

Mmmm… I don’t really mind… like… European?

European furnishings in a Taiwanese house?

(LOL) Yes… there’s a few “luxury” furniture stores that would have them — it’s so… Trumpy — but like, wealthy Taiwanese people like to “show off” with the European style furnishings…

(LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL)

Yeah… actually I don’t even know if that’s the trend anymore. Remember, all my memories are before the Pandemic!

(Chuckles) That’s okay, we’ll be retro…

Anyway, I am not that fussed about furnishings. And I’ll just — change it if I don’t like it — when I get there. It’ll be even easier than in Australia.

Oh? How so?!

The LABOUR costs?!?! It’s so much CHEAPER?!?! Just to call some furniture removalists, etc — it’s much, much cheaper than Australia.

Oh…

Anyway, I want a CHINESE HARP — a Guzheng.

Oooh…

Yes — it has sentimental value.

It does?

Yes. My mother played, when she was younger… she never got to teach me. She never got to bring her one to Australia… it’s still there in OUR house in Taiwan — but I rarely play it, I still don’t fully know how to play it.

If you buy me one — that’ll be nice.

Her one’s getting too old now… it’s collecting dust. It’s not that important. But if you buy A NICE ONE — something that could be a family heirloom to pass on for our daughters or nieces?

(Smiles) — I’m feeling kinda excited about a Chinese harp… any other traditional Chinese instruments?

I don’t have any other sentimental attachments, but if you’re personally curious — that’s fine. Go buy them and fill up a music room or whatever. Enjoy. Have fun. I don’t mind… get some soundproofing going on?

(BIG SMILES) — New projects for me!!!

Can you learn the Chinese harp and teach me?!?!!?

(LOL) Yes baby, I’ll do that for you…

It’s usually a “feminine” instrument though —

(LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL) THAT’S OKAY. I’M COMFORTABLE ENOUGH WITH MY MASCULINITY.

(Chuckles)… okay, go play it… and some other instruments, whatever you want….

I LOVE YOU!!!

Love you too… xoxoxoxoxxx
