I really think 7-11 should have sponsored you guys for this trip. and it definitely will be a good TV commercial to promote either tourism in taiwan or 7-11 brand.
You have an excellent point. -Eric
It's really beautiful of the eastern part of Taiwan. You took very nice video, and very good introduction of my country. Thank you and welcome to you visit again.
I wish I could go back again :( Living in the states right now, specifically in Michigan and it's cold as shit at around -10 degrees. I'm craving stinky tofu and milk tea right now.
Btw, those big blocks at the beach are for stopping invasions..
Yeah we stayed in the same town outside Toroko (Xincheng, I think) and yes, there's very little in the way of eateries there. We bought fruit from an old lady the first night and found a tiny old restsurant on the outskirts of town the next day. The 3rd morning we went to Hualien and had breakfast at Country Mothers... highly recommended. By the way the four-flanged keys have a dot that you have to line up with the dot on the keyhole. that's how you know which way it goes in. We did the hike to Water Curtain Cave too. A pretty cool hike!
CNVideos Oh nice. We never found any great food in that area. No big deal, we still enjoyed it! -Eric
I really enjoy that these vids go up Sunday morning US time. They are a great way to start my Sunday :)
That Changchun shrine trail is absolutely beautiful.
You are an adorable couple. I so enjoyed your trip to Taiwan. My husband and I lived in Taiwan for a year during Vietnam. Lived in Taiwan and went to Sun Moon Lake and other areas so it was so fun to see current day as it was quite different when we were there. Thanks , keep the videos coming and enjoy life!
Nice! We wish we could see Asia back before massive westernization took hold, I bet it was a drastically different experience. We still love it now though! Thanks for the comment! -Eric
The plugs can be different and sometimes the voltages are different but nearly every modern electronic device out there can accept every voltage in the world so you don't need a voltage converter. You just sometimes need a small adapter for the plug shape which is usually under $5USD. We had a small laptop with us, and a lot of our devices can charge via USB cables from it, so we did that too.
Can't believe that you guys wore that thin and sandals riding on the highest mountain road in Taiwan. But glad you saw the true beauty of Taiwan. At 43:30 of the video, it is one of the best spot to see sun set. Also, if you go there at night, there will be hundreds of thousands stars filled up the dark sky. BTW the egg is stewed with tea leaf and soy sauce, and the beef in the noodle was called beef shank, muscle part of beef.
Yea, it was cold up there! We figured we'd be OK because it was summer! -Eric
Kyde and Eric so at 43:30 where is that exactly?. im planing to visit taiwan next year :D
AceLorh Diu
It is somewhere along the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Cross-Island_Highway . A photo taken near where the video was shot has the GPS location of: 24.165898, 121.289361 , punch that into google maps. -Eric
Awesome, Keep making video like this guys.. Thanks again
part 3 of 5 The egg , 茶葉蛋(tea leaf egg) , is boiled with tea leaf . The brown color is from the tea and soy sauce. Also , people put some herbs for the flavor.
We used to live in Kumagaya, pretty far away from the tornado. We do have friends at work that live in Koshigaya and I messaged him right when I heard about it. No one we know was hurt.
It was in the middle of summer that we went to Taiwan, 7/27 - 8/7.
What a great trip! You guys had fun on this one. Such beautiful scenery. Thanks!
You guys are my absolute favorite channel on RUclips!
What u were eating was a tea egg.. With some soy sauce and other spices. That's y the water is brown. The longer they stay there... Off course the more flavor.
This video of course just reconfirmed why you guys are in charge of my favorite channel! I can't wait until the next video. Until then, I'll be mostly bored of RUclips.
The beef in the noodle dish were slices of the muscles on a cow or an ox's leg, so each slices has the meat parts and the tendons, the transparent part. Those are actually expensive beef for locals.
Great work Kyde and Eric! Good to see the vid receive traction so fast and there is even becoming ad worthy. Remember me!
I do enjoy the journey and I enjoy talking about the small and big parts of the journey. I will definitely pack some extra tissues in the future if I am back in Taiwan. Just thought they would be a little more on top of it.
Those roads around the mountains remind me of NZ. it all looks so beautiful.
Yea, it is. But I don't like to zoom during video, even with the Sony's brilliant stabilization if can be ugly and disorienting. Sometimes we set a zoom before shooting and that is usually OK.
Awesome, can't wait. Watching some of your other travels now.
Hi!
I was born there and have not been back for 30 years. It is interesting to see all the positive changes. last time I went back, it was still a developing country - no rapid transit. pollution was horrible. You almost never see North Americans there 30 years ago. I remember street vendor use to bring "Stinky Tofu" cart into the residential area and sell it house to house. good memories! I am now thinking of taking my kids there!
Binge watching for the past few days , funny as hell , and Kyde said she almost got fucked had me in tears lol
Freddy Lon Haha, thanks! -Eric
Dude I can't stop watching your videos cuz I miss home SO MUCH!!!!!
Absolutely yes. I am studying the College of Dupage. I will come back next year summer break. I suggest you can go to Kenting National Park. The national park is closed my hometown. My hometown is Kaohsiung.( south of Taiwan) Kaohsiung is the second big city in Taiwan.
Just reached the point after the pebble beach where Eric mentions reaching a culinary disaster. Kyde's expression just speaks volumes ;D
We loved every minute of it! Thanks for watching! -Kyde
I asked myself the "in/on" question many times, and for me, if it is a sovereign country like Taiwan or Cuba or Malta, I'd say "in", while with parts of countries (Penang, Hokkaido, Bali), I'd say "on".
+frappuccino68 Haha, yea, it's still a funny question. -E
The bird on the 1,000 New Taiwan dollar banknote is Mikado pheasant not Taiwan blue magpie.
In the 2007 National Bird Voting Campaign held by the Taiwan International Birding Association,[3] there were over 1 million votes cast from 53 countries. The Taiwan blue magpie defeated the Mikado pheasant and was chosen as Taiwan's national bird, though it has yet to be formally accepted.
the marble is definitely in the cliffs and mountains~~ and somtimes you will see it in the river or along the river band, but we don't pay attention to it because it looks just like grey or dark rocks...
I was rewatching this episode and decided while watching that I'll do the Google Street View of the Toroko national park and it wasn't long as I scooted down the virtual road that I came to the path that's open for ten minutes every hour.
Beef noodles use slice of beef shank. After cook, it shrink a little. That's the beef they eat at 55:06 in video.
The most entertaining hour of the day! Thanks!
I love your videos, I can't travel right now because of expenses, but you guys have filled that yern, somewhat. I'm sure your videos affect everybody in their own way. You Japan videos are my fav.
Not sure if you already knew this but the 7-11 that you guys stopped by towards the end is actually the "highest" 7-11 altitude wise in Ching Jing. You can kind of see the "2050 meters high" sign in your video. That's why it had touristy souvenirs because Ching Jing is a very popular place to see Alpacas.
refotsirkol Oh wow, that's awesome! We had no idea. Cool info, thanks! -Eric
I learned a valuable lesson on one of my earliest trips, always pack layers of both warm (thermal underwear is good) and cool clothing. You never know what the weather will bring.
i loved the discussion about "in" "on" Taiwan... I'm going to Taiwan in two weeks, I am loving your videos!
Awesome, have fun, Taiwan is amazing. -Eric
About the 16th picture in your blog, kydeanderic . com, the Big Blocks.
They were put on the sandy coast to break the waves and protect the coast line, or our territory will become smaller and smaller by erosion.
You guys are the best thing on RUclips!
I would only could only dream of having a adventure like the 2 of you!! Super cool!
I really thought that people could access the tags for the video. Hmm... Was there a place in particular you were interested in?
We were only passing through Ching Jing and needed a quick snack. People were helpful and kind to us, I think we looked more lost on video than we actually were. The google map app helped too and we were happy to have it, especially as we were on a scooter.
Yes, they are!!
Above 3,000 meter mountatin, the temperature is colder than plains more than 10C at least especially your were on riding.
Damn, that water pressure is so good the water falls out of the sink! LOL!
The ones that died building the road- I think they used army personnel and dynamite-lotsa marble to blast through and that 's why so many died.
This is so sad since it has only been a month or so since we went, but I don't remember the price for gas!
Love your vids ❣️the days of your life answer many questions I would have to have answered before I travel ❤️ especially when I can’t speak it 🤣🤣
These are great videos! Makes me want to go back to Taiwan
Eric bouncing on the suspension bridge really made me laugh and think of Indiana Jones again xD
The egg in black soup at 45:00 in video call "Tea Egg". In Taiwan, we cook egg by red tea to make tea's flavor into the egg.
about question 2.
It must be the sunlight. If you seat on the bike properly, the hot engine will not cause the burn unless you touch it. And if you touch it, you meat will burn like teppanyaki.
Bathrooms and toilets are like that throughout all of Taiwan. You can find them from inside high schools to even inside the fanciest of restaurants. Most of them are openings in the ground because the Taiwanese believe that crouching down helps one have a better bowl movement, and natives are accustomed to carrying around their own toilet paper. The toilet paper also isn't meant to be flushed but to be thrown away. So please don't call it "2nd world" when it is merely an aspect of the culture.
Thanks for explaining! We have always wondered that.
We didn't hear anything about marble, but maybe the big cliffs have marble in them?
I went to Sun Moon Lake too but I stayed at a really nice 5 star hotel over the lake though.
Bryan Fang Nice, that must have been wonderful. -Eric
Wow, sun moon lake! My parent's honeymoon was there :) The beef is actually beef shank. It's not a mishmash of beef parts, but the leg of the beef. It is actually my favourite cut of beef :D
soloartizan Sun Moon Lake was really nice! Good place for a honeymoon for sure! Haha, thanks for the details on the beef shank. -Eric
It'll be up this weekend!
i really enjoyed watching. thank you for the beautiful job.
lol the warning signs are hilarious . I am from Taiwan originally and your video really makes me home sick. Thank you for sharing and I hope you had a pleasant visit in my country!
We loved it! -Eric
You can have it! Just keep adding scoops!
So cool that you 2 visited the same places I did when I went to taiwan. Did you get to go to ALISHAN mountain? its a very famous lake where the emperors vacationed in the olden times. Plus there is a really old lady selling the BEST tea soaked eggs I've ever had in that mountain.
Chris Lee I'm really not sure, doesn't ring a bell. If we went, it'll be in the videos! -Eric
Kyde and Eric Yep you guys did visit Sun Moon Lake lol.
We tried to get wifi in many places and you had to already have wifi to get it. It would tell you to check your email to get a password! Never worked for us!
I'll keep it in mind when I tag videos in the future! -Kyde
The mystery meat you ate near the end is probably braised beef shank meant. They have funky marbling.
Can you give a time stamp? For some reason, I can't remember!
I have been here a couple times, nice to see footage of it again :) If you ever go back to taiwan you should definitely hit up the south coast. Kaohsiung is a great city and Kenting is a nice little beach town, although a bit touristy. And that thing you ate in the first Taipei vlog (pretty sure) was "dan bing" (my bad romanization). Constantly craving it and have never found anything similar in any country I've been to. BTW if you ever end up in Kaohsiung, my family owns a pizza restaurant and it is the best in the city ;)
Haley Roach We *really* want to return to Taiwan and check out the southern part of the country. I hope we get a chance to dine at your family's pizza restaurant! -Eric
TO Dear Kyde and Eric: The egg you ate on the high mountain is called "Chinese tea egg", boiled in water blended with tea, spices, soy saucer, etc... very popular food in Taiwan. I'm taiwanese btw, I love your video so much :)
Yeah you can go to the nearest mrt station ask 'em for a format. As soon as filled up all the info it requires, you can get free wi-fi when you at following places. MRT station hospital and city hall or another state-owned facilities. Your phone number will be your user name / ID, you gonna have to set up a four to six digits password for yourself.
Hopefully this weekend.
I thought taroko was known for its marble.. is that one of the attractions that you skipped? I'm really enjoying the detailed videos btw, would love to travel one day
@ 10:57 I think the "no stopping" refers to, you shouldn't linger there in case it starts raining down stones atop your head. No picnics on the rock face!
43:30! I live in Taipei and seriously thinking of your recommendation!
How long did it take you guys to drive from Taroko to Yuchi? I did a simular cross mountain trip (in a car) from Fuxing to Hualian and it took me 9 hours driving (and about 1.5 hours picture taking for the 1000s of waterfalls all over the place).
Can't wait for another upload!
i don't know if this is a dumb question or not but are there different electrical outlets where you guys go? if so, how do you adapt to that? as far as keeping your phones charged and whatnot....
Yup!
How are you doing
Another Great video Kyde and Eric.
Thanks for uploading.
Got hooked on your videos. I live in the US but everytime I go to TW for business, I GOT to have the stinky tofu... EVERYDAY! Sorry to hear you guys did not like it. Keep up the great work, you guys look so happy!
Haha, you're on your own with the stinky tofu, brother! -Eric
@22:05 Water Curtain Cave - 水簾洞 - Think Monkey King, Sun Wukong.
While I love seeing the scenery and all the stuff you guys explore on your adventures, I think Kyde's "toilet mystery" musings made this video. Also, how was that General Tso's? It looked a helluva lot better than the tofu and it's my favorite American-Chinese dish. Did that place do it any justice?
Why you so afraid to use awesome Sony zoom!?? Another great video!
Hi, Can you tell me how long it took you to ride from Hualien over the mountains to the nearest town on the other side? I am thinking about taking a similar trip. Thanks
I'm not sure exactly, it took the better part of a day I think. -Eric
haha about the incident with the toilet, but a lot of public restroom in Taiwan don't offer toilet paper so you just have to bring your own. You will see they sell small packet of tissue paper in store or even you can get it for free if people are passing them out with advertisement on them. It is always convenience to carry small packet of tissue paper with you.
In taiwan,95 unleaded gasoline 1 L = 35.5 NT
(1 gallon =3.785 L) 1 gallon gas = 135 NT
( if 30NT =1 US dollars) then 1 gallon gas is 4.5 in taiwan
OK what about zoom out panoramas? Would have been great with all the mountains! Excuse me as I ponder how mad I am; going on about zooms.
I know your using the DSC-HX20V lol - The 20x optical zoom is amazing imo. Sure, after that up to 30x it's all digital, but even that is pretty good. (If that's what you're referring as ugly)
The egg is called tea leaf egg... It's boil with tea and other Chinese herbs
Kady is spot on, 'we are "in" Hawaii or "in" Taiwan but we are "on" the object (eg. Shinxen mountain).
Jamie Day Thank you! -Kyde
You should chow down the tofu, chicken, and rice all together. It goes nice with other things, I found (and yes, I also really enjoy tofu). Stinky tofu is basically "fermented" tofu.
Just shared on FB.
BTW Koshigaya is where you lived previously, isn't it. Did you hear about the tornado? Someone you know might have filmed it...or not.
It was in the middle of summer when you went to Taiwan no? A bit before? So this video is "cool"...lol
That's such a nice thing to say! -Kyde
thats 100% real beef, its just cut differently, kinda like marbleing except its cartilidge, makes the beef more tender
The brown eggs you are eating is called Tea eggs.
soy souse water with tealeaves.
Thanks for clarifying!
In or On depends on the sentence. I think.
@ 30:28 They make them four-sided like that to make them harder to pick. They should have at least given you a dot or a ridge so you can see which way is up without fumbling.
I have spent a quality hour by watching your video.
Fun video especially the commentary.
Just for information, the birds on the back of the 1,000 dollar (Taiwan Currency Note) are the "Urocissa caerulea “, or "Taiwan Blue Magpie ruclips.net/video/KLe3CtPzztY/видео.html", (or Mikado pheasant, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Taiwan_dollar ). Taiwan Blue Magpie is the National Bird of Taiwan and if you have look carefully they are standing on the ground and not doing the "F" thing as you guys were thought.
+King-Whei Lin Haha, yea, we were just joking. -Eric
