This time our lovely Starbucks Bearista are wearing pink kimono(Japanese style dress) with Sakura on the left ear. I bought it at ChungYou Department Store at Taichung City, and it was the last collection on the store(I think it's hard to find it in other store too...So lucky I am).

Before I bought it, at the night before, I went to that store and thought to buy the Bearista, but I rejected once and chose to not buy it. But since I know that Bearista have a long history and unique characteristis in every edition, I decided to start collect it.

To be honest this is my first time I bought Teddy Bear in my life, so it's getting hard for me to decided as Bearista collector. But after I bought it, it looks like I will look for another Bearista again. It was so cute(but I think is still more expensive for me>.<)!




So guys, thanks for read my blog and just prepare for my another Starbucks tumbler and Bearista story! XieXie!!!

My second Starbucks tumbler is the official product of Taipei International Flora Expo 2010. Taipei Flora Expo is garden festival recognized by the International Association of Horticultural Producers (AIPH / IAHP) and is categorized as an A2B1 horticulture exposition. This is the first time for Taiwan to held such internationally recognized exposition like it, and the seventh of it's kind to take place in Asia. If you ever go to Taipei for travel or study Chinese, this expo is located on Yuanshan MRT Station, one more station to Shilin Night Market.
Starbucks XinSheng Store(inside the Flora Expo)
Starbucks open two stores on this expo: Flora Expo XinSheng store and YuanShan store. XinSheng store was especially designed by Uni-President Starbucks Company for this expo, combined Taiwan traditional bamboo wood and Starbucks-style interior design. They put a big flower replica on the top of store.  The place is very cozy and crowded with people during the expo.

Two Kids playing kits
The other store (YuanShan store) is located on food court near the main gate. The store was designed as a small stall. I bought the tumbler at YuanShan store. Very love the design in that tumbler, it depict Taibei city building with the two kids graps kits flying on the air. Also they put Starbucks XinSheng store picture on the central of tumbler behind couples of trees on front of it.

The very first tumbler: Hsinchu

Hsinchu Tumbler
Date    : May 31st, 2011
Theme : Hsinchu City, Taiwan
Store   : 新竹市東區關新路38號1樓
Hsinchu edition is my very first Starbucks tumbler that I haved. I bought it during my spring(in the same time with sweep tomb day in Taiwan) holiday 2011. Hsinchu is located on Northern Taiwan, and well known as Windy City. Hsinchu is the base city of high technology industry in Taiwan. Hsinchu Science and Technology Industrial Park is home to 360 high tech companies such as TSMC and Philips. As a result, the city has the highest income level in Taiwan.

Hsinchu City Gate

Starbucks design the tumbler with the picture of
Hsinchu City Gate and some high buildings around it, also with another ornament and eye-catching detail about the city. The tumbler is dominated by green, blue and orange color. I think it represent ecofriendly-industry environment inside the city.
