Around one week of preparation, I got the US VISA today, already received the passport..kekekeke... Previously, since I heard that being unemployed is harder to get it, so I was a little nervious, I was thinking what if I cannot get the visa, I have to change whole the America schedule? But finally, it was passed successfully...
I prepared a lot of stuffs in order to go the interview on 8/28:
1. Prove of the bank saving.
2. Whole the round world schedule, including flight detail.
3. Father company and his business card.. in order to prove I can have a job easily here in Taiwan.
The migration interview personnel only asked me 2 questions:
Q: Where do you go?
A: I am going back to Argentina, and I will go back by round world trip method.
Q: Is this your job?
A: This is my father's company, I will work here after I come back from Argentina.
Then passed, incredibly is that he hasn't ask me to show any evidence... lol...
So, right now, the flight are already confirmed... US! I am coming...

4 VISAS to apply
First step was the flight, and now comes the VISA problem...
There are totally 4 VISAS to apply in whole the trip:
1. USA VISA: the most difficult to get, I don't know why USA think that everyone wants to stay in their country. I know that US is one of the strongest country, but for living I don't think so...However, this Friday 28th I will go to their interview, I am a little bit nervious, 'cause if I cannot get their VISA, the schedule will mess up... and I have to skip US schedule... it sucks.. hope everything will be OK.
Fee: USD 131+NTD 320.
2. Schengen VISA: European VISA, I guess there will no problem with that, I've already got Schengen VISA for 2 times.. Even it was for work, but I guess it will be OK.
Fee: NTD 2500 around.
3. Malaysia VISA: No doubt about it, it will be OK.
Fee: NTD 250 around.
4. India VISA: I guess it won't have much problem too.
Fee: NTD 1200 around.
Well, Further than this, Sri Lanka and UK do not need any VISA, and in order to go Santiago de Chile, I can use my DNI (Documento Nacional de Identidad) of Argentina without any VISA.
Then, after get the American VISA, my schedule will be confirmed soon.
