    Taiwan is one of my favorite places to visit for a short holiday (been there twice within this year alone), different but yet also familiar for me as a Singaporean.

    Very well done! I've watched quite a few vlogs about Taiwan, but yours provides some real time experience such as how to get out of the airport then get to Taipei, etc. , which is so important for foreigners as to getting around. It makes me want to visit Taiwan at my soonest opportunity. Thank you so much for sharing.

I am surprised that people travel to a new country and do so little research about what to see and how to get around. I liked your step by step walk through of the airport and using the MRT. I'll be doing that at 7:00 tonight!

    Although Taipei is not the most populated city in Taiwan, it is the densest. Taipei and the surrounding New Taipei, plus the port city of Keelung, make up the greater Taipei metropolitan area.
    Try to get a reloadable Easy Card. It makes taking the metro, local trains, and buses very easy.

    Your Japanese dinner looked really delicious! What you had ate in the blue warm cup is called Chawanmushi. If or when you visit Japan, and I think you sort of gave it away. From my understanding, the Japanese once had a major influence in Taiwan, so you may see lots of similarities when you get to Japan. Enjoy your travels!!!

      Do what the locals do and get your beer at PXmart or 7-11 or Family Mart. Taiwan Beer or Bar Beer are popular. :) The steamed egg thing you ate is called Chawanmushi, it's Japanese style steamed egg with a little bit of fish cake. 228 Memorial Day is observed every year in Taiwan on February 28. The number “228” represents the date of February 28, when an uprising led to the massacre of thousands of people in Taiwan. If you have any questions, happy to assist, I lived on Yong Kang Street in Taipei for 3 years, back home for now but will be back in a month. :) Subscribed.
