Welcome to Taipei, Taiwan.
The country with a Family Mart or 7/11 every 50m to satisfy your every need. Check out these buns!
The country that is normal to see cute cartoon games being advertised. Such as the game above, Maple Story. The only story it offered me was '6-7 hours a day in front of the computer screen' during my teenage years. I sent this picture to my friend (who was equally addicted) and we had a stroke of nostalgia.
The country with sausages every where. I took this photo in a Carrefour supermarket. Taiwanese don't joke when it comes to sausages and deep fried chicken.
And the variety of bread on offer in Carrefour... But many more can be found in smaller shops that sell an even great range of savory and sweet buns. My favorite had to be bread with meat floss.
The country famous for its night markets. Many different dishes to try but I too, have my physical limit. I simply cannot try every food stall in one night.
The country that was lucky enough to offer me the experience of a life time: The biggest Typhoon in Taiwan. It left a trail of destruction...
It had a domino effect...
Things fell from the heavens....
And trees too a nap on pedestrian paths. How rude.
But it could not take my sunset away from me...This was taken when I was walking along the Tamsui River near HuaJiangYanYa Natural Park 華江雁鴨公園。
On another day, I hiked to the top of Elephant Mountain 象山 to witness this beauty.
Surrounded with tonnes of hiking trails for me to explore. My second hike was from 劍潭 metro station to 劍南路 metro station. I got lost but I found my way eventually!
Taipei. My home for four weeks and so much more to explore....
