Hi! This was early February, which was the cherry blossom season as well in Taiwan. The weather was so nice and it was the best time to visit Sun Moon Lake. I guess, I would not rent the manual bike anymore if I go back to Sun Moon Lake to bike (there are options for electric and semi electric bikes, and I am not the fittest, active person) but it was a good experience but very tiring. I just prefer slow and non tiring activities 😅

@@xoorange Thanks for your insights! I myself am not the fittest either, lol, so I'm going to take this into consideration when I visit in February next year😄

Enjoy your trip ♡

Thank you so much! ♥︎

🥰✨

Super ✨

🥰🥰🥰

Thank you!

Life saver on an almost 4 hour flight

Thank you! Both the light rail (tram) and the subway can get you around Kaohsiung. I also use bus (very efficient) and uber (car and taxi) when going around. Google map is also helpful when navigating. Enjoy your Kaohsiung trip!

Hi! This was last week of January, January 31 to be exact.

Thank you! Kaohsiung really has a different vibe than Taipei and I really love the laidback vibe of the city. So many more cafes to explore in Kaohsiung and Tainan, hopefully I can go back (very) soon.

@@xoorange always looking forward to ur vlogs!^^

Thank you, gorgeous ✨

Cherry Blossoms are really a sight to see, worth a trip indeed. About my favorite night market, I have to choose Ningxia Night Market. Everything I want to eat is there (but it has tendency to get really crowded on weekends, I advice to come early 530pm-ish and visit on weekdays instead)

Hi! Since it's nighttime when we departed Juifen (and everyone is in queue for the Ruifang Station Bus or the bus routed to Taipei), luckily the bus to Keelung arrived. So we took the bus to Keelung then rode a TRA from Keelung to Taipei. Seems like a round trip but it was an experience (and the fares are affordable). By the way, the Keelung bus also dropped some passengers to Ruifang Station but most people seems not to know about it.

Enjoy your Taiwan trip! 💖

⁠​⁠@@xoorangeThank you for your prompt response. We will definitely enjoy our Taiwan trip😊

Hi! Dont worry about dining alone, I see a lot of people dining alone and enjoying their hotpot (not just hotpot but most of the restaurants in Taiwan). The hotpot place I went to specifically has personal hotpot and the portion are of for solo diners (set meal hotpot). Hope you enjoy your Taiwan trip! 🥰 There are also times that I dine alone during this trip (Taipei is an introvert friendly place)

Enjoy your Taiwan trip. ♥︎

Thank you! Appreciate those kind words. 💖

Thanks a lot 😊

Glad you like it

Hi, my apologies I really cannot recall if the bus can accept easycard payment. When we purchased our ticket from the kiosk, I just remember they gave us the ticket that looks like a voucher which need to give to the bus attendant before boarding the bus. We got the combo ticket which includes one way Taichung to SML and the roundtrip boat ride in Sun Moon Lake.

Taiwan really feels like home for me. Very comfortable travelling and wandering around. People are also very nice and kind. I love to visit Vietnam too, keeping my eye to visit Hoi An soon

✨🌸

Thank you, really appreciate it. Yes that bag store is just a few walk away from the steamed cake. Here's their location in google maps: maps.app.goo.gl/kZ9Su3URQzDz3kck6?g_st=ic . The place is easy to spot too as everyone is looking, holding, hoarding and buying those bags. ♡

@@xoorange ah thankyouuu! I’m thinking to get that bag as souvenirs for friends and family😆. I’m enjoying your videos so much as a guide for my coming trip.❤️

Thank you! Have fun in your upcoming trip. 🩷

Thank you so much! ❤️ Yes, definitely you can walk from Taipei Main Station to Dihua Street. I've done it couple of times before, just make sure to wear comfortable shoes. The "Y" exits as I believe leads to Beimen Station (got lost there just recently, from Airport Line). It's really nice to explore the underground malls as there as so much to see. Also tried that route as well last year when we are planning to go to Ning Xia Night Market by foot. Just make sure to follow the sign for Beimen Station as it will be nearest one going to Dihua Street. Enjoy your Taipei trip! Also forgot to mention, the underground malls have comfortable temperature, they turn on the airconditioning when it's hot outside and it's a little warm too when it's cold outside.

@@xoorange thank you for the detailed explanation!:) appreciate it! is google maps reliable to use there? in case we get lost walking, is it safe to follow google mapś directions?

@@xoorange may l also ask which mobile data plan did you use? did you purchase a local sim card? Iḿ using an iphone and dont prefer to remove my sim card so Iḿ looking into ways to get data without having to switch out my sim card!:)

Yes, google map is very reliable for locating places even transport route but bus time might be a little different, dont worry majority ofthe bus stops in taipei has screen to monitor estimated arrival time of certain bus but overall it is very accurate and easy to follow with using google maps. About SIM cards, I always buy local SIM before leaving the airport (and they are quite affordable). I've tried Chunghwa and Far East Tone, and never encountered any issues. They also have eSIMs available. The earliest telecom counter opens at 430AM and I believe they closes at midnight. For most of my visit, I also use Klook for purchasing SIM cards but the last time I visited a week ago, I just bought directly from the telecom counter in the airport without any Klook voucher.

Hello - Thank you so much! There are actually two MRT stations sandwiching Dihua Street but requires a bit of walking. The first one is Daqiatou MRT station (yellow lane) and this will bring you nearer to the back alley or the quiet part of Dihua Street, there are lots of cafes, teahouses and restaurants from this part. The second one, which i believe is the popular one, is the MRT Beimen Station (Green Line), this will lead you nearer to YongLe Market and the Visitor Center which is super busy especially during Chinese New Year festivities. Hope this help and enjoy your trip to Taipei. Let me know if you have other questions, I will be more than happy to share what I can. 🩷

@@xoorange Thank you so, so much for this! <3 Will definitely check out both. Manifesting you get to travel more because your vlogs are pure gems (especially your cafe-hopping bits). Also hoping to bump into you someday, whether in Manila or in Taipei! Thank you again. ^^

Thank you for those warm words, really appreciate it. Hopefully we see each other in cafes either in Taipei or Manila. Enjoy your Taiwan trip! 🥰

Taipei is always a good idea. There's so much to experience. Hope you enjoyed your Taiwan trip. 🩷

Thanks a lot! 🥰 Yes, from Taipei Main Station we took the TRA to Keelung Station. Then Bus from Keelung Station to Zhengbin Port; and then another bus from Zhengbin Port to Ruifang Station. From Ruifang Station we took the Pinxi Line train to Shifen. Hope that helps, it is really easy to navigate and DIY this route. Enjoy your trip!

@@xoorange Thank you so much for replying!!! Have a nice day🥰❤️

These were taken in Yangmingshan. 🌸

Thank you and enjoy your Taiwan trip 💖

It really is! There's just a lot to see, experience and taste. 💖

Thank you, appreciate those words 💖

It is, super love Taipei 💖

✨✨✨ Who knows? ✨✨✨

@@xoorange gulatin mo sila 😂🤸‍♀️

For this trip, we stayed at Big Bear Hotel near Formosa Blvd Station. It is nice to look for hotel near Formosa Blvd MRT as it is very convenient. Also tried Royal Hotel (this one is near Kaohsiung Station).

@@xoorange yay, thank you so much. I really enjoyed watching all your Taiwan vlogs :) More vlogs please :)

This was first week of February. Kaohsiung is way warmer than Taipei (but still very windy). If I remember correctly temperature was low 20s during the day and drops to 18 in the evenings. Enjoy your Taiwan trip.

Thank you ❤

Enjoy your Taipei trip ❤️

Thank you ❤️🥰

You're welcome and enjoy your Taiwan trip next month. 🥰 Can't wait to also go back in Taiwan soon!

Hi! Cherry blossom season starts early in Taiwan compared to Japan and Korea because of weather. There are still Cherry Blossoms or Plum Blossoms but not as many and might be on higher altitude areas like mountains and national parks. Best time for cherry blossoms in Taiwan is February. Hope that helps and enjoy your Taiwan trip!

Thank you! 😃
