In Hualien, last week, I stayed at an AIRBNB on a farm. The owner distilled rice alcohol, rice wine, fruit wine and made his own sausage. He shared it all with us. Kind, loving, generous, beautiful experience.
7:25 - it’s the anxiety over the travel that makes it exhausting, no matter how long it takes - There’s nothing wrong with feeling tired even after only a short bit of travel - particularly when you add in the additional stimuli of lighting, noise & (at times) crowds!
If you go to Taroko gorge… one of my favorite places in the world… the last few times I stayed at the Liwu hotel. It’s near the entrance to the gorge. And there’s a train station closer to the gorge than Hualien. And near that station you can rent a motorcycle. This is my favorite way to go now. The gorge is kind of far from Hualien
6:22 Yeah, it is common for people to carry little package of tissue paper with them on the go. You can get them in every supermarket or convenience store, the flat pocket size tissue paper pack. Some public toilet have a small vending machine for tissue paper, I think I have seen vending machine on trains, too. I am not too sure. It's probably a good idea for traveler in Taiwan to carry pocket pack of tissue papers. get a bunch in any supermarket, and its handy everywhere. can also be use as cushion in backpack when needed.
10:35 The shop is known for the running egg yolk. It's named "Bomb" Scallion Pancake. Because 'bomb' and 'fried egg' sounds the same in Mandarin. Instead of onion, it is made with scallion/spring onion. Using the stem part of scallion, instead of the bulbil of onion. Scallion Pancake is popular all island around. While the scallion from the north-east county of Yilan is renowned and very good in fragrance.
@@katekaft And don't be afraid to ask other customers there on how to get an order. Many people will glad to help out. As it can be more confusing at place like this. Sometimes food stands have a more casual manner on queue. You can be too polite and not knowing when to order and ending up wating for nothing while others 'cut in line'. In this sense it is not really a rude cutting line. But just how the street stands work. But if everyone there is politely in queue of course lets follow the queue too. I read maybe the shop will give you a number after you ordered. And you will pickup the food when they call out your number. If you can't understand Mandarin number very well, again just ask someone on the scene to help you with it. ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ
@@katekaft There are three scallion pancake shops that is popular in the area. You can consider look them all up on the map. The other two are : "老牌炸蛋蔥油餅" and "林記～明禮路葱油餅"
Too bad it was raining when you got to Hualien - but nothing extraordinary since Taiwan's East Coast gets a lot of rain. And yes: it does feel like a different country when compared to the always busy and glitzy Taipei. Personally I like Taitung even more than Hualien - laid back, a bit rough around the edges but perfect to recharge one's batteries. No surprise that the trains were fully booked around LNY. I've had the same experience when it's tomb sweeping holidays. And last November I wanted to change my habits and took an ordinary TRA train to Taichung rather than the HSR. Sunday afternoon, 2pm - fully booked, yould not get a reserved seat and ended up sitting for 30mins and standing for a full two hours. Won't be doing that again for sure...
So happy your extending your stay and can't wait to see the rest of the series. Also as a American living down under I'm excited your coming to Australia! Where do you plan to go and I will see if I can help with ideas. 🇦🇺
Thanks for the videos of Taiwan. I really miss the place. I lived there from 1997 till 2002. Btw, January isnt the best time to visit Northern Taiwan because it's so cold and wet then (mid winter). Pity you didn't take the train right around the Island. I did that once after my Taiwanese girlfriend dumped me in the year 2000. I was originally going ride my scooter all the way around but after reaching Ilan city and having major mechanical problems I had to dump the scooter and jump on the train there. If you ever go back to Taiwan take the train all the way around and stop off at Kending in the southern tip. It's convenient because most towns and cities in Taiwan have cheap hotels beside the train station. And of course to save more money catch the slow (local) train. Cheers, Karl
So excited that you're coming to Australia and fascinated to see what you plan to do in your 3 1/2 weeks. Your budget will definitely take a hit here, be prepared.
Another great Vlog. And thanks for the update on your future plans. Can’t wait to see all the wonderful places that you go all the best to you from San Diego California.
That’s sweet you guys are doing the Everest Base Camp trek. I did it and it was wild vlogging while trying to get enough oxygen in my lungs. I got altitude sickness and had to get helicoptered out. Make sure you acclimate slowly. Get in touch if you need any tips. Best of luck.
@@natelewis8529 You should do it. It’s a once in a lifetime experience for sure. One of the hardest things I’ve ever done though and I’ve done a lot of crazy stuff
Nice to see that food truck is still in Hualien, I had that about 12 years ago and it was fantastic (if it is the same one, but the street and everything makes me think it is). Not sure if it is classed as a cong you bing or not.
Next time, when high speed train to 花蓮 is unavailable, try local bus from Taipei city hall to 羅東，into take one hour time,if there is no traffic iam. After that,take train again from 羅東 to 花蓮，It only takes thirty minutes. Wish for happy journey for your next. Happy Lunar year.
Gold coaster here too…can’t wait to hear the plans for aus.. I am a kiwi as well living in aus hopefully one day you will make it to n.z it’s expensive but worth it so beautiful. Base camp better get in some training haha. Lovely to see the journey you are taking can’t wait to see the mountains.
By the way Chinese New Year changes things. Some places stay open and some close for a day or two. And some close for a week. I hope everything goes well for you
Hi Guys been watching your posts for over a year now, loved all your adventures. So happy to hear of your plans include a trip to down under plenty to see and do. Have recommended your chanel to my adult children. Keep up the great work Cheers David
When you get back to Taipei, I recommend you to drop by Zhuji to get their beef meat pie. It’s sooo good and they’ve been around for 50 years. They have several restaurants on the island. each pie cost $50NT. Wash it down with a bowl of millet. Everything else is meh. Eating instruction is the same as the soupy buns!
✨I'm drooling over the Egg things...can't afford in U.S. anymore, Washington DC area EIGHT DOLLARS a dozen. 😥 They say it's because of a bird flu. Thanks for sharing, and be safe ❤
Hello Tia & Chev did I hear you are coming to our Aussie Land so excited. Many places to see if you get a chance I lived and my family live on the Gold Coast a place to consider and the Great Barrier Reef and Cairns North Queensland and many Island you can visit I now live not far from t North Queensland I am sure you would really enjoy plus bonus the weather is warm lol but anywhere in Australia you will enjoy. Love your videos Take Care 😍😍
You guys went to my hometown! Please enjoy the taroko and if weather is good, drop by the title island! Taipei MRT was so filled of people, I'm surprise the slow train is so empty! Can't want to see your adventure in Malaysia and Australia ❤️
awesome awesome awesome!!! My daughter and I just got back from Seoul 3 days ago and it was fantastic. I love your content and the fact that your still on the road!!!!!
Cool that you guys are coming to Australia. Definitely lots for you to see and do in Australia. I'm on the Gold Coast in Queensland and there is the Great Barrier Reef up north in QLD. If you get over to Western Australia you got to try to get to Rottnest island and see the cutest animals on the planet Quokkas.
They are such a nice couple. They have now been in Australia for 2 months and they are planning to spend another 3 months travelling around the top of it? They have a lot of long drives ahead.
other foods to try in Oz, chicken parmy, ie parmigana, pavlova, lamingtons, yes it's expensive compared to asia, but the A$ is 0.67 USD so the exchange rate is favourable for you guys, have fun xjas
I was so hoping after Australia you would pop over to New Zealand to check us out too. Looking forward to your Aussie adventures though, it is a lovely country.
Queensland- I would go gold coast and Brisbane for one full day and that's it. Better to spend time in Noosa and also if you have time an absolute MUST is Fraser Island [must take a guide/tour as you need a 4wd]. Go Byron Bay that is a must- I know it's NSW but it's closer to Brisbane. You can visit crystal castle while you are there.
So excited to see you guys travel in Malaysia and Australia - I love both countries so much! Would love to give you more local recommendations in Singapore once you're here :)
I am in Penang, Malaysia now . The people are kind, warm and hospitable. Will be leaving for Singapore on Monday , the place where I was born . It’s changed a lot . Wish I could run into both of you but I’ll be back home to Canada by time you are there . Have an awesome time
I'm a simple guy. I hear KL, Singapore, and I click like. Actually, I'm simpler than that, you upload and I click like. Seriously, love all these places you have been going lately.
Hey, I'm in KL now! Funny how some of my favorite TH-camrs end up in the same city, problem is you think you're there at the same time, but the vids are sometimes weeks behind...I'm starting a channel called 'Stalker' where I travel the world catching TH-camrs off guard! When we went to Hualien from Taipei we did a day tour. Flew in, got on bus and went to the gorge, then the sales tour after (jewelry, furniture, granite stuff).😁 Then flew back to Taipei...
Your adventures are so encouraging. Like 2 peas in a pod. Penang and Perth should definitely be on your list. My son and I just spent an amazing 5 days in Tokyo. If you get to Western Australia we’d love a catch up. Keep up the great travels and enjoy all you do.
It will be AWSOME to see you in Australia , but be forewarned. It’s EXPENSIVE. Interior travel cost more than travelling across say Europe , Asia or the States(so everywhere.)
Finally ...Australia .I seldom find TH-camrs go and explore Australia or New Zealand..well at least you guys are going there(Australia)...most of them they will go to Europe,South America,,Africa or Asia.....can't wait.! Thanks again for all the videos you guys have made..safe journey and happy travelling.
AUSTRALIA!!!!! I started watching your japan videos wanting to travel there and now you guys are coming here, im so excited. If you need any tips and help feel free to reach out, can be a bit expensive down here with food and accomodation. Make sure you come and visit Melbourne though!!
I had started following you since your Japan trip because it was around that time I went to Japan and all kinds of Japan videos were popping up on my homepage. Weird seeing you guys somewhere else lol
Thanks for the great video, it was exciting to hear your plans for future travel. I would be really interested to see your videos from Penang in Malaysia. When visiting Australia, I would strongly encourage you to stop off in Cairns or Port Douglas. Located in far north Queensland. This is the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef and the world heritage listed Daintree rainforest.
SO excited to hear you guys are doing Everest Base Camp, I did the trek in September and LOVED it 😍 Cant wait to see your videos and relive it again! Enjoy guys safe travels. X
nice that you planned out next 2 months.... seems like trip to Australia sticks out, coming from Singapore! would it be more cost effective to go somewhere in SEA... like Philippines and then go to Nepal.. AU is not cheap.. but im sure the air from singapore to PHilippines would be cheaper as well and cost in PH is "cheaper" and fits better for your budget. enjoy!
Nice vlog you guys . I suppose when you come to Australia you will go to Sydney . I live in Perth and that’s all the way over the other side on the West coast , it would cost too much to come to Perth but at least you will see how great Australia is . Happy travels :-)
Heard that you 2 are planning to come Singapore. As Singapore lodgings are very expensive, you may want to look at Johor, Malaysia, just a cross border to Singapore. You can find some that is very to customs (CIQ) at Johor. You can travel train (S$5 one way) or bus to Singapore. Not sure if it is good option for you all but definitely it is cost savings one.
Can't wait for you to go to Singapore, the country of my origin. I first found your channel when you visited there. I've been watching you since! Also, can't wait for you to go to Australia. I have many friends and relatives in Perth. I loved it there when I visited!
If you guys go to malaysia then singapore then to australia, you can buy a singapore airlines flight from KL to australia and i think they may allow a stopover in singapore. I think Singapore airlines is having a sale or promotional fares now... but read the terms and conditions. It might just be slightly more than a budget airline
How did you go to Hualien from Taipei? do you need to book the train in advance or just walk in to the station and buy ticket at the day you will depart to Hualien.
Is this Park Taipei? We wanted to stay there but made mistake on going with our 2nd alternative LOL... should have went with my gut LOL .. Our hotel was just the next block south at Tapei Fullerton.. not bad but next time Park Taipei.. I recognize it because of where you guys stood and we walk by it heading north a lot to Macu BBT LOL
Hahaha yup, it was Park Taipei. Nice place definitely, I think it opened in September '22 so everything is very new. Nice gym! The pool is closed for the winter though.
In Hualien, last week, I stayed at an AIRBNB on a farm. The owner distilled rice alcohol, rice wine, fruit wine and made his own sausage. He shared it all with us. Kind, loving, generous, beautiful experience.
How much was the rate in AirBnB?
So glad to see you enjoying Taiwan. I live here for some 14 years and can't see myself moving anywhere else.

Heard that you 2 are planning to come Singapore. As Singapore lodgings are very expensive, you may want to look at Johor, Malaysia, just a cross border to Singapore. You can find some that is very to customs (CIQ) at Johor. You can travel train (S$5 one way) or bus to Singapore. Not sure if it is good option for you all but definitely it is cost savings one.
Can't wait for you to go to Singapore, the country of my origin. I first found your channel when you visited there. I've been watching you since! Also, can't wait for you to go to Australia. I have many friends and relatives in Perth. I loved it there when I visited!
Amazing plans!!!
I recommend Georgia/Azerbaijan/Uzbekistan too
India would be epic too
Straya!!! Come to NZ while your down these ways
NZ is definitely happening, we just gotta work out the details
Hah you went through my neighbourhood of Banqiao!
If you guys go to malaysia then singapore then to australia, you can buy a singapore airlines flight from KL to australia and i think they may allow a stopover in singapore. I think Singapore airlines is having a sale or promotional fares now... but read the terms and conditions. It might just be slightly more than a budget airline
hope you come to the philippines too 😊
How did you go to Hualien from Taipei? do you need to book the train in advance or just walk in to the station and buy ticket at the day you will depart to Hualien.

Our hotel was just the next block south at Tapei Fullerton.. not bad but next time Park Taipei.. I recognize it because of where you guys stood and we walk by it heading north a lot to Macu BBT LOL
Hahaha yup, it was Park Taipei. Nice place definitely, I think it opened in September '22 so everything is very new. Nice gym! The pool is closed for the winter though.
