He is reading Hell Yeah or No: What's Worth Doing, by Derek Sivers. It's his friend's book. Lately he hasn't had much time to read. He's studying computer science here in Taiwan, though originally from the Caribbean. How do Taiwan's beaches stack up? They don't really compare....the Caribbean is definitely more swimable.

More pictures below that I took when I was there the day before. It's the best beach I've seen in Taiwan yet...calm water due to the walls of cement around the area.
