TRAVELING TO TAIWAN'S EAST COAST! (Taiwan Vlog)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ต.ค. 2024
- Join us for a travel day with stunning views of Taiwan as we take the bus and train to get from Kenting to Taitung. We hadn't heard of a train with ocean views before, but this one came with plenty. Today we leave Kenting, take the bus for Fangliao, where we head to Taiwan's beautiful east coast, where our first stop will be Taitung. The views from the train are especially beautiful with mountain views on one side and ocean views on the other side.
We will be staying in Taiwan for the coming weeks/months. If you want to discover what it is like to live as a foreigner in Taiwan, what daily life looks like (costs, apartment, etc.) as well as exploring some of the beauty Taiwan has to offer, then subscribe to our channel.

If you can reserve some time for a lazy afternoon, try to check out Cheela Cafe (小屋咖啡馆) in Taidong City. I love that place! Guy
不常在東部坐公車真的會搞不清楚，希望大家以後在公車站看到外國人能主動幫忙！
人生絕對沒有辦法事事都達到完美，你們在語言不同的國家旅行，這樣已經是很棒！
東部從台東、花蓮到宜蘭真的很漂亮，希望你們接下來在那裏留下此生最美的旅程！🥰👍
這就是我為什麼那麼喜歡看你們拍攝的影片，綠行跟人生一樣，有順利也會碰到困境，解決後，又是新的一天的開始。說真的，像我碰到那樣巴士不停的，我也會罵髒話，太喜歡你們的影片了！請繼續保持這樣的初心錄影片，不用一味的吹捧，這才是最真的你們。祝福未來無論到哪裡都平安。
40 thousands fans are all rooting for you.
真的該讓交通局跟觀光局來看看
外國人到台灣來搭乘火車、高鐵、捷運以外的交通工具是多麼的不方便。 總不能只打捷運好乾淨的廣告而已吧
真的，至少用英文寫句請揮手攔車😂
打電話給林老師家龍吧
真的，有些縣市的大眾交通很不足。而足夠的英文指標則是普遍缺乏。
我真佩服這些不通中文卻敢來台灣玩的外國人，勇氣十足！
個人覺得台灣的公共交通已經很發達了 (我是ABC). 台鐵到處都有車站. 鄉下地方可能因為使用率不高所以缺少班次. 反倒美國這邊根本沒有大眾交通的概念, 沒有汽車就等於沒腳. 主要是搭公車必須揮手很不習慣而已
Another great video. I love how real you guys are on your channel. It really feels like we’re traveling with you, through the ups and downs. Enjoy Taidong!
Thanks Wes 😊
You guys are realistic, not like other travel influencers who only focus on flashing the luxury travel lifestyle. I feel your work is genuine. Keep it up.
In Taiwan, when you see the bus coming, you need to raise your hand and wave to the driver to get on the bus. This is very important. If you were only standing at the bus stop and not waving to the bus driver, he would think that you don’t want to take the bus. This is weird but true, because many bus drivers pull over based on whether someone waves to him.
That is true. Bus drivers in Taiwan will only stop when they see a waving hand because not every passenger is taking the same bus (there are usually different number buses for the same bus stop). There is no direct train from Kenting to Taitung because there are not enough passengers to support it. (Most visitors to Kenting are from the west coast.)
Nope, funny enough on the same spot driver ignored me.. despite me waving enthusiastically.
@@michellokhorst5883 Too "Enthusiastically" might be the problem. The driver was shy to stop.
鄉下搭公車看到車來，遠遠的就要招招手，不然司機會以為沒人要搭車喔
謝謝您們喜歡台灣~~
聽你們發射負能量還帶點喜感，挺有趣😄，不過還是希望你們一路順風。這種天氣很多人都往山上避暑，辛苦兩位了。
悶熱的天氣，難免會讓人有不舒服之感，要多補充水分。別在意～
台灣的公車站，有時會有好幾處不同路的公車，請事先招手；司機先生才知道你們要搭車噢！
祝福你們～
我很喜歡你們的影片及感想說法，因為充滿幽默，尤其你們一到台灣時，你們的聊天式夾雜著幽默，讓我常忍不住的大笑!所以很愛看你們的影片！
祝你們好運連連，有著美好時光!!
KIM的說話藝術絕對是我學習的對象~偶爾會在結尾放出超幽默的冷箭~偶爾又非常懂得把負能量瞬間轉化成正能量~你超棒的!!
你們夫妻倆真的很利害 台灣觀光局應給你們倆頒發最佳外國旅客 把台灣介紹那麼好 拍的那麼美 感謝您們
台灣歡迎你們
在台灣搭公車記得要招手輝手👋要讓司機看到~這樣公車才會停下來靠站喔

1. Please remember raising your hand and waving to the bus driver when buses are approaching, then the driver will know he/she must stop the bus for you.
2. Can try 18-day Taiwan Beer👍
3. I don’t like waiting for buses either, only feel better when I’m in Taipei area (cause there’re arriving times on electronic bulletin boards.)
4. Scenic spots recommend: 清水斷崖、伯朗大道
Thanks a lot for the great tips!
Up days, down days. We all have them, no need to apologise. Still enjoying your travels from where l am watching. Stay safe in this crazy time.
放開玩，不再想太多，你們很棒了，會很快回到快樂的心態上是很棒的事，希望以後不管遇到什麼事都要保持正面的能量喔，加油!!!
情緒低落可能跟輕微中暑有關。多喝水，多休息，去超市買加塩的黑松沙士來喝，可以消除身上的熱氣
It’s still quite positive that you are showing the real side of lives in this video. We are all humans and nothing wrong about having emotions. Videos on social media should not only have shown the bright cheerful and happy part as it’s not always the case in reality. There are of course ups and downs especially when you are backpacking under the pandemics filled with so many uncertainties. Please keep the spirits and travel safe especially. 💪🏻💪🏻
We try to share the ups as well as as some of the lows. Traveling is fun and rewarding, but it comes with its own set of challenges.
有國語字幕太好了謝謝 祝旅途愉快
東部是台灣最美的地方，其中一個原因就是相對原始未被開發，所以交通上自然就不太方便，這是沒辦法的事，加油！
天氣太熱也會影響好心情，吃碗冰再加油^^
一直期待您們的新視頻。希望您們能把台灣走透透。
Thanks so much for the videos. In this difficult time we all get a little discouraged when we can't do what our hearts desire. I live in South Korea, but am from the US originally. I like traveling around Korea but so many things are canceled and Seoul is having an outbreak. I have had to cancel our vacation for Egypt. Which is how I found your channel. I have been watching your TH-cam videos as a way to explore virtually. Again, thank you for the videos.
It's hot and humid this season in Taiwan,backpacking is not easy, that will make you feel tired and frustrating. especially when things are not going well as you expecting. But think of the bright side, you are sooooooo~lucky can still travelling in this island, one of the most safe place in the world now, small but safe, and you can go anywhere you like.,enjoy the nature 、the food..still a lot to explore. and you are welcomed here. People are friendly and nice and love your sharing. Take easy and enjoy the process. Have a good sleep tonight, and try good food tomorrow ! Cheer Up! Love you two!
Thanks a lot for your kind words. After a good nights rest and a couple of beef noodle soups, we feel a lot better ;)
@@NaickKim Happy to know that! Everyday is a brand new day! Enjoy! Sweet dream~
Like Naick & Kim real mood. Bless the trip to Taitung, will be more and more smooth!
Thank you!!
Great vlog. Taiwan is an amazing country 👍👍
台灣夏天的濕熱也可能是心情糟的原因
連台灣人都受不了
The hot and humid summer in Taiwan may also be the reason for the bad mood.
Even Taiwanese can't stand it sometimes.
Its really hot recently.
You are right, the humidity and heat probably did not help :)
How can they travel while Taiwan close its border. I am confused
Glad your day got better. We enjoy your videos. Thank you and stay healthy
台灣夏天,天氣滿悶熱~希望妳們還能習慣~
I started following you as a result for a search of quarantine videos in TW. Since then I've been watching your videos. You're in a good place now and when the world calms down, you can leave this wonderful Oasis called Taiwan. To be honest, I've lived in NYC my entire life after immigrating from Europe. I'd love to retire and live in Taiwan.
I enjoy your video a lot and I like you guys a lot! Thank you so much for the informative travel guide and your experience and frank open descriptions along the way. Appreciate it so much!
這種天氣真的很熱，不過到了台灣的後花園東部，那就好好放鬆的玩吧!
或許當環島一圈後，國際情況或有大的改變(希望是變好)
總之，台灣人說的一句話"既來之，則安之"
加油!你們的每個影片我都有看喔!
Life always up and down, please keep positive and stay safely, thank you for making these great videos to show beautiful Taiwan.
下一站花蓮，大山大海，鬼斧神工的太魯閣，一望無際的七星潭，心情馬上就會好起來，加油。
Thanks for sharing the tough and stressful day you have experienced. That do let us know what it might happen during traveling. Really appreciate your honesty in video. Enjoy the peaceful Taitung. And good luck in the trip.
東台灣有台灣最美的山海田園風光，宜蘭人歡迎大家光臨！宜花東太美太迷人🥰😍❤️
搭乘大眾交通工具戴口罩😷保護自己和他人，做了最佳示範！好棒
祝你們旅遊平安愉快❤️😘😘😘
Finally😍😍Amazing East Taiwan! Enjoy Natural at East Taiwan! It's different than other big city.
Thanks a lot!
加油!很喜歡妳們，台東和花蓮是我最愛的地方 祝福妳們玩的開心，旅途平安~
I like your video. You guys went to more places in Taiwan than I have went to. I should learn from your guys to visit more places in Taiwan.
甘巴爹 Wish you everywhere have wonderful memory in Taiwan😘😍💗❤💖🎉🎉🎉
❤️It is tough traveling to foreign countries and making videos, lots work involved. Thank you for your wonderful works !
Like K's confession and humor, you are you, you don't need sunshine forever, there are ups and downs to be pleasantly surprised!
Thank you Cindy :)
You have to wave your hand to stop the bus. The train is loud because it's running on a diesel engine.
Yes! You rode on the last section of Taiwan Rail's main routes that have not yet been electrified. Guy
subscribed!!! LOVE u guys!!!
I so enjoy your videos! Traveling for such a long time is bound to make anyone a little cranky! You make me laugh every video, and I'm excited to get there and enjoy Taiwan. You make me look forward to my adventure!
Thank you for posting your videos. It helps me a lot to see a normal lifestyle. 🥰
Don't dilute your spirit , you are one of the very positive couples, I have come across , and in these troubled times ,you are a whiff of fresh air and watching your videos is a treat . I can understand at times traveling may become bit monotonous and tiring for you , but then it was your choice , and due to that sole reason you are in such a lovely , corona free country , you have no clue what is happening elsewhere at the ground level across the world .So , stay safe and keep travelling and blogging .
Thanks Arvind! We will 💪
I've been following you since you two arrived in Taiwan--thanks to Wes DaviesTH-cam channel, and great to see you finally made it to Taitung. As a Taiwanese, the east is my favorite part of this island. Besides the beautiful scenery, if you take a close look, you'll surely find that some people here look a bit different from those in the western part of Taiwan. There are various aboriginal peoples in Taitung and Hualien like Paiwan, Rukai, Pyuma, Amis, Bunon, Amis, and so on. They have their own languages and cultures that are totally different from the ethnic Chinese's. Hope you find it and have wonderful experience of it.
Go,Go,Go !
Hope you will enjoy the trips. The train is super old and probably serve for 30 years and you are lucky. BTW, you can go to the kinmen island and full of historic and Chinese architecture just like Tainan.
That's so awesome you guys make it to Taitung!! I have to admit it. It is quite confusing to take bus while away from bigger cities in TW. Every time before I go back to Taiwan from New Zealand, I have to do some research and ask someone at the stop to double check to see if I take the right one! lol Became a tourist now in TW. Anyhow you guys are so adorable and positive although having a bad mood( I always blame the hot and humid weather). In east coast, it's much more convenient to rent a car, because it's quite hard to get a taxi when away from the city centre. Have a fabulous travel in east coast!! And safe travel too~~
C’est la vie.
Life is always a combination of both positive and negative stuffs and it gets balance eventually.
Enjoy the life in east of Taiwan and get the power from nature.
Thanks for the authenticity guys❤!
願意用行動支持你們，那就是努力看完廣告，即使有5分鐘以上，仍然播放完畢，加油!! 希望你們在台灣有很多美好回憶。 享受當下
It's good you guys are flexible. Not being able to read the signs can be a pain sometimes.
In large swaths of Taiwan, signage can be irrelevant as some lazy bus companies can't be bothered to change their posted schedules when the schedules are updated or modified. Cheers, Guy
台灣的朋友，讓我們來幫助他吧！讓每個經過自己家鄉的人都能感覺到溫暖，透過實際的行動我們會一步步看見自己的美好成真❤️
的確應該改善一下墾丁的公車，大眾交通系統。🤔🤔
要從外國遊客的觀點審視。
Good to learn about it! The best of Taiwan is the eastern part, enjoy it:)
天天都想看到你們夫妻的影片 加油!
Cheer up! Thing will be back to right way finally!
Glad your day got better. We enjoy your videos, thank you!
Taitung Dulan is very beautiful!Can go and see!There are many surfers and foreign backpackers!
I like your videos very much, very natural and real. My family and I are following together.
Thank you Lilly! So happy you and your family are enjoying our videos 🤗
Aww I feel you, the public transport system can be a little bit frustrating sometimes. It's normal to have a down moment, we are only human. But I'm sure that Taitung will help you bounce back. Btw, there's an annular solar eclipse next sunday (6/21), it will be something to witness, in case you don't know yet.
Hi Kim, the train you took was at least 22 years old(oldest of the kind is 38 years old), and it's diesel. That's the last part of railroads in Taiwan that isn't electrified, so the trains there tend to be noisier. I think the government is working on electrifying the railroads there, so they haven't bought as much newer diesel trains that are quieter. Sorry about the bad train ride experience 😅 Hope the view makes you forget about the noise
Love to see you speaking out the difficulty for moving from KenTing to TaiDong which Taiwan need to improve in the near future, and glad to see your overcome this as well
Hello, I am just here to remind that when you see the bus you are expecting that is approaching the bus stop, don't forget to raise your hand and maybe wave to let the bus driver know he needs to stop to pick you up. It happens that sometimes things don't go well when traveling, but, yeah, hope Taiwanese food have healed all the uncomfortable and inconvenience when in your stay in Taiwan.
Hi~Women in Taiwan usually use parasols when it's sunny outside. Cause you're outdoors a lot, you could actually buy a parasol that's specially designed to protect you from ultraviolet light, which is very helpful for cooling down. Have a nice weekend!
Taitung have high quality rice and hot spring, and the weather is really hot now!
In summer, the highest temperature in Taiwan is always happening in Taitung, remember to drink more water than usual!
Thanks for your enjoyable video . I’ve been watching them since u came to TW . BTW. There is a thing I would like to remind you that June 25-28 is a holiday which called Dragon Boat Festival in TW. During the days it would be difficult to book a hotel room. Especially in Taitung and Huialien. I suggest you to arrange your travel plans and book your room beforehand.
You have no idea how I envy you travelling around Taiwan and having beef noodle...
Love following your adventures in Taiwan, I really want to move there once the pandemic is under control and international travel is allowed. I miss Asia so much and your adventures keep me going in these difficult times, thank you so much! Sending all my love to you both 💕
The bus is
inconvenient in somewhere, due to not many people take it, so the shift would very less or wait for a while.
One more thing, the engine of the train that your guys take is driven by diesel, called diesel multiple unit, so the sound is a little bit loud than electric locomotive.
Haha Kim still carry that Blue umbrella . So so Q love it
公車，真的是很難控制的移動式機器。 很喜歡你們的視頻哦，加油
Totally resonate with you for the part waiting for the bus. Especially under such humidity! Take a good night sleep and everything will be reset the next day. For sure!
Welcome to Taitung, my hometown
You guys are just getting into the most remote part of coastal Taiwan. That is why it is so much fun. Much better than the west coast which really runs all together into one huge metropolis.
Regular buses, slow trains, not so easy but you need to enjoy that slower pace. That is like when I visited Taitung in 1975. The train stopped In Kaohsiung and it was all regular buses to Taitung, Hualian to Yilan. In Taitung then they had pedicabs not taxis. We took the freight boat from Taitung to Orchid Island about 8 hours and very rough seas. Orchid had no vehicles so we walked the 20 km around in the heat. Good way to lose some weight. And see no one except the prisoners (it was a jail Island then). Slow down and enjoy the east coast.
You could open a beef noodle restaurant in Belgium and make a lot of money. This dish is very easy as you have good beef. You charge Euro 10 per bowl. Lines will form.
巴士快到之前要招手。恭喜你們搭到真正的火車，engine train ，臺灣僅存的一段，已經要改成電力了。
Thanks for the great vid, so enjoyable following your adventures. Enjoy Taitung guys it's fantastic, don't let the travelling part get you down, as it's not the destination that makes the trip, but the journey there. Hey be careful swimming, there are some very powerful rips along the coastal beaches there, especially the surf beaches just north of Taitung.
祝福你们幸福快乐一辈子！永远在一起天长地老
Down days are normal Naick and Kim. The good thing is you realize them and you are always up for something better like food. Food is indeed life and happiness. Keep the videos coming it is really happy pill. Keep safe and healthy always.
In my opinion,the east coast of Taiwan is the most beautiful scene of Taiwan.
It's so glad to see you here to travel around Taiwan and had a good time.
It's hot,drink more water to avoid Heatstroke.
Take care of yourselves！
Public transportation in countryside of Taiwan is not easy even for natives. Your guys made great achievement today.
Fully support you with the remaining trip and wish the best of luck and weather! Too bad I am not near to help out...
Thank you Richard 👍
We were just in Taitung for Green Island! East coast is beautiful you guys will love it. Let us know when you guys reach Taipei! Would love collab or something!
I have gone to watch some videos on your channel. I love your mv-like videos so much (the cinematography is insane!) Love your wonderful story-telling content too! Very refreshing perspectives and the scenery looks so beautiful! It will be great if you can meet up in Taipei for some collaboration since Grace lives in Taipei!
We are human and all of us have the same feeling and emotion sometimes.
Taiwan buses used to drive me nuts not stopping, especially when i was waiting for the last bus. Looking back it was a pain, but solving the problem just left positive memories, so don't beat yourself up if it isnt always 100% positive. It is a tiny issue in the grand scheme of life. Thanks for sharing
Amazing editing as always!
加油！台東是我最喜歡的台灣城市，可以讓人，放空並減壓
When you see the bus coming, you have to wave your hand before the car stops
Beef noodle soup is surely a wonderful comfort food
In order to make the bus stop please wave your hand to bus; so the bus driver know you are there. You are great. We all love you.
Hi guys, we’re living in a unprecedented time, it’s only human to fell like sh*t occasionally. To be frank, if you’re cheerful all the time, I might wonder what you’re smoking! 😆
Can’t travel to other places? Just stay here and be a full-time TH-camr talking about Taiwan, problem solved!
到時候再找好和弦feat🤣
Cool place
The hot dense summer in Taiwan can be really a patient killer , and make sure you are always hydrated 😅Hope u guys have a great time in Tai-Ting too !
Thank you!
