Taiwan!


The streets of Dan Shui


The last time I went to Taiwan was in 2004 (abt 6 yrs ago). This time around, Taiwan was nothing like I remembered. It way exceeded my expectations. I LOVE TAIWANESE PEOPLE!!

The Taiwanese are so nice and polite. I love how they’re so friendly and let you try everything in the store and don’t get mad when you walk away! They practically shove the samples in yr face! And how they bow and greet you in unison when you walk into the malls (I feel a little bit uncomfortable at the bowing part, but yea, you get the gist). My sister and I also concluded that Taiwanese girls are not acting cute, they are just naturally polite but at the same time, do it uber cutesie-ly! Taiwanese guys are also pretty handsome!! The ones with Jerry Yan-ish bodies… ): I didn’t get to see my Jerry Yan. Too bad!

Some pictures frm uber lousy cameras (I BROKE MY SISTER’S CAMERA IN TW! Good job!)


At Spring Villa. Super uber pretty villa in the mountains. Where I stayed in to watch TV because the damn mosquitoes were attacking me. My whole leg is filled w mosquito bites now. DAMN GROSS!


I can still enjoy the view from inside the air conditioned and un-mosquito infested room! My sister says i’m horrible.


At the Beer factory gulping down Taiwan Beer only because my dad asked me to.


At Xi Men Ding trying to blend in w the Taiwanese people. Eating Mee Sua on a stool needs skill ok. The bowl was freaking HOT.


My Ah Ma in raybans! Uber cuute!


Chicken Cutlets as big as yr face at Shihlin Night Market. Didn’t eat these though. Watched a documentary on Opera Winfrey about meat, and i’m possibly scarred for life from Chicken and most other poultry. Shouldn’t have watched it before my Taiwan trip…


Opted for fried mushrooms instead!! YUMYUM! Oyster mushrooms, Straw mushrooms, and Shitake mushrooms!


My sister and her super gross Taiwanese sausage! Super dodgy meat!


On the volcanic mountains. Very very very beautiful. Except for the stupid mosquitoes.


Bumped into my friend, Samuel in Taiwan! Of all places! And I haven’t seen him in AGES! 3years? WHOAHH.


My papa and I outside Taipei 101!

I really had so much fun w the family! My dad is so retarded with his lousy Chinese (nt that mine was any better). He kept trying to converse w everyone there in his Chinese and NO ONE CAN UNDERSTAND HIM -.- Super funny!

Spent a lot of $$, ate a lot of food, talked a lot of crap. Need to stop holidaying. Will def go mad. Few more days left in sg ): Sighh, idk why but it’s getting more and more dreadful to return to Perth ): Super sad.
