Kai Ming Senior Technical and Commercial Vocational School (新北市私立開明高級工商職業學校) was a private vocational senior high school in Xindian, New Taipei, founded in May 1964. The campus appeared as a filming location in Ang Lee’s 1994 film Eat Drink Man Woman (飲食男女). Falling enrolment amid Taiwan’s declining birthrate led the school to suspend admissions in 2020, and it ceased operation after its final cohort graduated in July 2022.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
