As a person who indulges in horoscopes here and there, I’m always intrigued by reading the Chinese yearly horoscopes at the start of the Lunar New Year. Being born in ’92 I’m a monkey, so 2016 was supposed to be my year. This Saturday welcomes the year of the rooster and brings with it a new basket of opportunities.
Reading my horoscope for the year of the monkey was incredibly inspiring last winter. I held close bits of it throughout the year that I still hope to keep in my mind in 2017. One of my favorites being – have faith in your intuition, your heart will not steer you wrong.

This year, I’ll be celebrating the Chinese New Year in Taipei, Taiwan, and I’m looking forward to potentially witnessing some traditional celebrations. As this new year begins, as always, comes new opportunities. Hoping the year of the rooster brings more adventures, life experiences, and learning opportunities.
I’ll be posting photos of Taipei on Instagram so be sure to follow along at #bbmtravelstaipei.
Happy New Year!
