＊這是優質頻道，希望大家多關照，請幫忙分享，敬謝！＊ It should be explained: Taiwan is the kingdom of butterflies, being surrounded by butterflies means that you are a lucky person, and it also means that you will come back to Taiwan again! As I watched this video, I gradually realized that you are cuter than those animals in the zoo, you are like superstars! The point is that I don't need to spend money to buy a ticket to watch you, haha! You both are awesome, thanks for sharing such a lovely video! Happy travels! 👍🥰🙏
Hahaha it was definitely a beautiful day and moment!! The Taipei Zoo was amazing - we totally agree that it would be easy to spend a day there! We had to visit twice during our stay! 😍
Nothing is more delicious than having osmanthus with black sesame & fried peanut sweet dumplings. I can’t wait to try it again when I go back in September.
I been watching Taiwan vlogs all week and finally found my way to your channel. The best videos about Taiwan! I'm going in december so doing research. Thanks for sharing!
Hey!! Glad you found them and have found them to be helpful!!! :D Hope you have an amazing trip!! Taiwan it awesome!! If you ever need tips or anything, don't hesitate to reach out!! :D
I just want to give you guys a Shout out from the US. You guys are hands down the best TH-cam Travel Couple. Tbh, it really shows in the Vibe of your Videos which have a very inviting tone. The work you two do together is Unique and very well put together. I really appreciate you taking the time and making the effort to share your experience and content. Keep on Rockin. I really now want to go to Taipei. Not just because i've wanted to go for a while now but also because now i have a great blue print from two of my Fave YTers.
Wow! Thank you SO much for your comment! Seriously it is so nice and means a lot to us! 😭🙏 Comments like yours really keep us going! You should definitely check out Taipei, it is an awesome and underrated travel destination! Don't hesitate to reach out if you need any travel tips when you make it there! :D
Love this video, so chill and pleasant.😘 The beauty of the forest is really breathtaking, especially when the trees were washed by the rain, everything was so green and full of life. I just couldn't take my eyes off those scenes in this video, feeling my heart has been washed as well. Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip. 😍 The Taiwan government should have invited you guys to be the Taiwan Tourism Promotion Ambassadors! 😉
Thank you so much!! So happy you enjoyed it! The chill videos are our favorite to make! Taiwan is so beautiful, the camera definitely does not do it justice! Maybe one day they will! We’d love to work with a tourism board!!
I really enjoyed seeing Alan have his Disney Princess moment! I’ve been to the taipei zoo two times and still haven’t seen everything. Can’t wait to go back to Taiwan and check out some of the places you two went and I missed! I last went right before covid hit
He really loves being a disney princess hahaha. The Taipei zoo is truly world class!! We hope you make it back to Taiwan soon! It's such an incredible little country! I wonder how different it will be now in the post-covid world!
It also brings me joy of every brief clip of him with his hands buried in a street cat’s fur. You guys slip it in so quick haha I’ve definitely been some more roadside zoos in Taiwan which make me more sad. And their aquariums aren’t the greatest in terms of their beluga whales. But the taipei zoo is top notch Hopefully early next year! I’m not sure if it’ll be too different. Maybe slightly more mask wearing, but most people already wore masks due to pollution and just as a general preventive for illness. They went through SARS so while covid was still shocking it wasn’t as great of a shock as it was in the US.
Hahaha, we just love cats!! Oh we did not know they had roadside zoos. I think they are becoming less frequent throughout the world though as people learn how to treat animals. The mask wearing was not too bad! like you said, some people will still choose to, but it is not required in most places! I think they dropped the transit requirement near the end of our visit even!
Tips for saving energy when visiting Taipei Zoo😘 Take the shuttle bus from the zoo at the entrance to the top and walk down to visit. I remember a single trip only took 5 NTD👍, but it was already a long time ago😅
Hi!! Yes, we are back on after about a month long break! We've had some family stuff going o and just decided we needed to take some time to spend with them! But we have plenty more videos coming!
Pangolins are such endangered species. I wish more was done to protect them! Wonderful animals! I recently heard Taipei zoo is one of the biggest in Asia. I may check that tea house you went to in Maokong, it looks mad decent.
Oh yes! We totally agree, it’s very sad what has been happening to them. 😢 We read that the Taipei zoo is the only zoo in the world that has successfully bred them in captivity- I hope they can succeed in their conservation program!
I love both of you as a couple! It's so comfortable watching both of you in videos. You have such nice character and temperament and make great travel and life partners together. ❤😊
I am with you on the Xiao Long Bao...those and spicy wontons I think I could eat daily.....DELICIOUS! Wonderful videos of Taiwan. This helps so much in my planning. THANK YOU!
24:43 When I was in college, I majored in Chinese culinary arts and there's one time I wanted to try how powerful the stoves are so I leaved a empty pot on top for 20 minutes and it melted
Hi! Great video-- love how you explained things in a way that first timers will understand. Will visit this May 2025 and looking to visit the tea place in Maokong. What is its name? Unsure if it's the right "Humble House" I see on Google Maps. Thanks!
Ahh thank you! So happy you have found it to be easy to understand. So exciting you will be visiting! For some reason the humble house does not come up on google maps.. but here is a link that may help! goo.gl/maps/CpFtynzqxTNsV6ft6 If you go, it has the red umbrellas and styrofoam/rock sign! hope that helps!! :D
As someone who likes nature, this was one of my favorite Taipei videos. I will go to Taipei in September and I will definitely go and visit the tea house on top of the mountain!
We absolutely love it too!! Hope you have an amazing time on your visit! The tea houses are adorable. If you love nature and hiking we highly recommend Yangmingshan too, its also near Taipei and so beautiful!
Thank you for introducing the beautiful side of Taipei City in Taiwan. I hope you can continue to love the beauty of the counties and cities in Taiwan. 🇹🇼❤️
Thank you so much for your kind comment!! We absolutely loved our time in Taiwan! An amazing country, awesome people, great food, beautiful nature. What’s not to love? We have a few more videos about Taipei and a few on other cities coming soon too! 😃
Thank you so much!!! We loved our visit! And the food 😋!! We covered Taipei the best we could and have a few more videos, but also visited Hualien, Kaohsiung, Cijin island, Tainan, and Xiaoliuqiu! Those will come later!! 😃
been watching a lot of your taiwan videos (my mom was born there). love the videos and the depth of them! the award winning tea farm looks amazing. much love from california!
Thank you so very much!! Taiwan was such an amazing place. Would you want to visit to see where your mom was from? Also the tea farm was so fantastic, if you make it out there it is definitely worth a visit! So awesome you're from CA, we're both from there too! :D
@@IfWeGoTo I've been Taipei & Tainan area when I was younger to visit family, but didn't get to explore much other than some MRT trips to different stations and such. Didn't know there was a zoo there, and I really wanna check out that Cat Cafe haha. Wow, that's cool you guys are from CA! Which part? I'm in the LA area.
@nockk_ hopefully you can return for a visit sometime to see more, Taiwan is so so so beautiful and has so many things to do! Alan is from San Diego and I’m from the Silicon Valley!
@@IfWeGoTo yeah definitely hoping to in the near future! Your vids are a great guide. Oh wow, that’s cool. I would have guessed Alan was from NorCal and you from SoCal haha
Yayyy! Glad you think so! If you ever need any travel tips don’t hesitate to reach out!! Hahaha yes, I have a bit of a SoCal accent - not sure where it came from! 😆
Dude those butterflies were really digging Princess Alan 😂 I have a crippling fear of heights and when I took one of the crystal cabins earlier this year I was mom's spaghetti the whole ride lol. You did a wonderful job of capturing the Maokong experience, really made me feel like I was back there! That was a pretty authentic tea tasting and Alan did a perfect job explaining all the steps- that is exactly how my dad used to do it for me when I was growing up. Glad you guys enjoyed the tangyuan, those are one of my favorite snacks. You definitely got the peanut filling but if you have a chance to try the ones with black sesame you gotta do it- they are practically life-changing. Y'all are really making me miss Taiwan!
Ahh sorry we somehow didn’t see your comment!! I do now though!! The Alan’s loved him! It was so cute lol. Hahaha yeah it was a bit spooky.. but not much worse than the regular car 😂 are you from Taiwan?? And next time we’ll be sure to get the black sesame flavor!! Thanks for your comment, it means a lot to get awesome ones like yours!!
@@IfWeGoTo My parents are from Taiwan but I was born and grew up in the US. Been back to visit Taiwan a few times but honestly I wasn't that interested in my Taiwanese heritage until recently. I had an amazing trip to Taipei and Yilan earlier this year and I'm kind of obsessed with Taiwan now lol. I was having such bad TW withdrawal after the trip and coincidentally found you guys, watching your vlogs has been so therapeutic for me 😄 Huge fan now!
Oh that’s super cool! I’m glad you got to visit and experience it. It’s such an amazing little country! 🥰 We noticed there wasn’t a lot out there on Taiwan/Taipei so we tried to cover it as well as we could!! It makes us seriously so happy to hear that you’ve enjoyed them, thank you so much!! 😃
小籠包 xiao long boa is not necessarily soupy. Some restaurants specifically offer 小籠湯包 xiao long tong bao where tong = broth, soup. Those are normally more soupy than regular xiao long bao.
Such a chill and relaxing vibe, well done guys 😀Editing was on point and you got some great b-roll. Suggest you bump up the levels on your vocals- the quality is muffled in parts but overall quite good, but the levels are a little low especially during the walk-and-talks. No need to push the gain on your mics/audio recorder, but you should be able to lift the levels in editing without even getting close to clipping or blowing out. If you get your vocals to match the levels of your music I think you'll be golden!
Hey!! Thank you so much for the tips, it is super helpful!!! We have been having some problems with our mics.. need to diagnose them!! 😢 do you have any tips for editing audio in post??
@@IfWeGoToUnfortunately it's been almost 15 years since film school and I haven't edited anything myself in a long time 😢 The part I was suggesting was to look at the audio waveforms in your editing software, and raising the levels on your vocal tracks so that the peaks match the peaks of your music tracks- does that make sense? It won't do anything to clear up a muddy recording, or fix anything if your mics are acting up- but it will at least bring your voices to the same level as your music, which will fix the problem of quiet voices and loud music.
@@IfWeGoToAlso- for the sections where you couldn't record good audio and it sounds like you were relying on the onboard mic with lots of background noise- I'm pretty sure there are filters or plugins you can use that are specifically designed to reduce noise and boost vocal frequencies. Sorry I can't recommend anything in particular, all the tech I used to edit with is 15 years old and obsolete lol, but I'm pretty sure you can find tools like that nowadays for free or cheap.
Ohhh yeah yeah. We did mess around with some of the settings but honestly the audio we collected is just bad and I don't think we could come back from it without some seriously good AI or something - we have done some sound correction and added depth using Premiere, but It seems the cords we used are not working as well as they need to be unfortunately and are collecting a lot of strange noise. We will look into some better audio balancing between the voice/music though. We have been relying on our program to make these determinations and usually we don't get feedback about the balance being off, but I think our bad cords have changed this. Though our next few videos will probably (and unfortunately) have this problem, we'll try some new audio balancing! Thanks for pointing out this is a problem!!
@@IfWeGoTo oh no I meant did you do dance or play an instrument growing up? Haha I just thought ur likely to be a dancer or musician if you do an edit like that
@@danzwku ohhhh! Haha I must have misread!! No, we didn’t really - other than when we were kids 😂. I love music though! & Beats are usually pretty easy to pick out, but the wave forms can help if it’s hard to recognize!!
@@IfWeGoTo got it Thank you so much PS:Allow me to recommend a restaurant with a night view named 草山夜未眠 to you and another restaurant named 台北陽明山The Top屋頂上 is also not bad
@@IfWeGoToThey filmed the opening scene in Taipei Zoo with post-editing digitally, so the animals in the opening are in that zoo, including Taiwan black bear and Formosan sika deer, etc. Actually most of that movie was filmed in a pool in Taichung with artificial wave makers, and the meerkat island as well as the final landing beach were filmed in Kenting.
We loooove xiaolongbao!! But to be entirely honest, we didn’t live Din Tai Fungs!! It was good, but we thought their chili wontons were better!! We did find some xiaolongbao in Tainan that were phenomenal though!
That intro tho..😗 *chefs kiss* Good job, guys! Another great video. If those butterflies are attracted to sweat, I'd have the whole damn encloser all over me, with that Taipei humidity . 😂😂 Wish we had been able to stay longer than a few days in Taiwan. You guys are really making us excited to go back. 😊
Hope you make it back soon! Right now we are in the USA, unfortunately we have a close relative having some health struggles right now. So we'll probably be around here for a bit!
@@IfWeGoTo any seafood stir fried... go to the Taipei Fish Market, pick a seafood like fish or clams, shrimps, etc.. and they can cook it for you right then and there.. find a spot to nosh on... Keelung has a squid sausage with raw garlic that is delicious... Taiwan has so many it is hard to pick.. i find the food in the south and smaller villages tastes better ...and cheaper
Oh gosh yes, we very much enjoyed our time there!! We actually did visit a dentist there!! But just to check for a problem. Do you have any recommendations on a good dentist for foreigners!
I love pangolins. To me they don't get enough attention. They are mammals equipped with their own lorica squamata. I think they are at least as awesome as platypuses. I still haven't managed to see one in the wild though. Hopefully one of these days I will have a chance encounter with them when I go hiking. They are called lâ-lí here in the local Taigi language, and qam, HaRem, and qalum in various indigenous Austronesian languages, ultimately from *qaRem in Proto-Austronesian. This word managed to survive in Austronesian languages in Borneo as ahem or ayem. The problem is that since the Philippines was not connected to the rest of Sundaland, nor Taiwan, nor Asian mainland, it didn't have any pangolins. Meaning early Austronesians settlers from Taiwan didn't expand slowly through the Philippines, but expanded fast enough for the word for pangolin to still be fresh in the memories when early settlers in Borneo met one. I always have butterflies landing on me when I go hiking as well. I used to think I too am a Disney princess. Thanks to your video, now I know it'd just because I have BO...
Oh definitely! They are amazing creatures.. I hope they get the attention they deserve! And the little bit of history you shared about them is very interesting - thank you! Do you know where the best are in Taiwan to see them is?? Hahah someone here said that it is good luck to have all of the butterflies land on you - maybe you are lucky too (or maybe it is just BO, who knows! lol)! :D
Hi, I hope you can help. I've been on Google maps for the last hour, trying to find the route to humble house from the tea promotional center but I'm not sure where it is. Can you help? Which road should we walk into (can't find the shrine/landmark too).
Hi!! Yes, I’d be happy to help!! On google the name of the exact tea house is “寒舍茶坊” and the address is No. 6號, Lane 40, Section 3, Zhinan Rd, Wenshan District, Taipei City, Taiwan 116. The address may pull up a location called the “Yao Yue Teahouse”! The Humble house and the Yao Yue Teahouse have the same main entrance, you’ll find an archway with red lanterns! Follow the road until a fork, and you’ll go follow the track with the styrofoam sign in our video at 21:27! I hope that helps! If you need any more direction please let me know! Hope you have a great trip! 😃
@@IfWeGoTo I see that, actually found it on google maps, but I think the street view isn't updated, so it doesn't really show me where to go, or where that fork on the road or the tori gate is. T_T
@@ayzprincess ohh it won’t come up on street view because the Humble House set back on a walking path! The drivers with google’s cameras only stick to public roads!! You can see the gate you need to enter from the road at 15:02 in the video though! You’ll walk through that down the path which cars can’t access! So you walk straight down that foot path and there will be a fork in the path, you’ll see two signs. The one at 15:11 in the video, and the one at 21:11. Follow the sign at 21:11!
Do not drink oolong tea before food:) drink 30 minutes after a meal. Never on empty stomach;) and yes- that’s the best tea in the world - but u must know how to make it;)
Taiwan Zoo play fee fare => one person "2" US dollar Children under the age of 6, elders over the age of 65 => gratis free =almost free to play= other Many attractions in Taiwan are almost free
Hi!! We noticed that too! we’ve got a great microphone set, but we recently had to switch a cable so I think something may be off with it! Going to buy a new one soon! Thanks for pointing it out though, your feedback really helps!!
I like your video. But don’t just stay in the cities of Taiwan. There are a lot more to see at the east coast, mountainside, and outer islands. Trust me:)
Thank you so much!! We have a few videos left on Taipei (we tried to cover it pretty comprehensively!!), but we also have some from Hualien, Kaohsiung (and Cijin), Tainan, and Lambai island coming too! 😃

@nockk_ hopefully you can return for a visit sometime to see more, Taiwan is so so so beautiful and has so many things to do!
Alan is from San Diego and I’m from the Silicon Valley!
@@IfWeGoTo yeah definitely hoping to in the near future! Your vids are a great guide.
Oh wow, that’s cool. I would have guessed Alan was from NorCal and you from SoCal haha
Yayyy! Glad you think so! If you ever need any travel tips don’t hesitate to reach out!!
Hahaha yes, I have a bit of a SoCal accent - not sure where it came from! 😆
非常好看，希望能每週上傳❤️
謝謝你！！我們絕對嘗試至少每週一次！
Lovely couple, quality content, please enjoy your stay in Taiwan!
Thank you so much! We loved Taiwan!
Dude those butterflies were really digging Princess Alan 😂
I have a crippling fear of heights and when I took one of the crystal cabins earlier this year I was mom's spaghetti the whole ride lol. You did a wonderful job of capturing the Maokong experience, really made me feel like I was back there! That was a pretty authentic tea tasting and Alan did a perfect job explaining all the steps- that is exactly how my dad used to do it for me when I was growing up.
Glad you guys enjoyed the tangyuan, those are one of my favorite snacks. You definitely got the peanut filling but if you have a chance to try the ones with black sesame you gotta do it- they are practically life-changing. Y'all are really making me miss Taiwan!
Ahh sorry we somehow didn’t see your comment!! I do now though!!
The Alan’s loved him! It was so cute lol.
Hahaha yeah it was a bit spooky.. but not much worse than the regular car 😂 are you from Taiwan??
And next time we’ll be sure to get the black sesame flavor!!
Thanks for your comment, it means a lot to get awesome ones like yours!!
@@IfWeGoTo My parents are from Taiwan but I was born and grew up in the US. Been back to visit Taiwan a few times but honestly I wasn't that interested in my Taiwanese heritage until recently. I had an amazing trip to Taipei and Yilan earlier this year and I'm kind of obsessed with Taiwan now lol. I was having such bad TW withdrawal after the trip and coincidentally found you guys, watching your vlogs has been so therapeutic for me 😄 Huge fan now!
Oh that’s super cool! I’m glad you got to visit and experience it. It’s such an amazing little country! 🥰
We noticed there wasn’t a lot out there on Taiwan/Taipei so we tried to cover it as well as we could!! It makes us seriously so happy to hear that you’ve enjoyed them, thank you so much!! 😃
That butterfly scene was really cool. Another great video. Cool series on the districts of Taipei.
Thank you so much!!! Glad you enjoyed it!! That was our favorite part too!! 😃
That smokey flavor is known as wok hei or breath of the wok -- this can only be achieved with an open flame under the wok.
Ohh I didn’t know that! Thanks for sharing!
祝福 平安健康 事事順心 台灣旅遊愉悅.
謝謝你！！
來台灣一定要去南部喔 有很多美食還有風景 謝謝你們的影片讓大家知道台灣
哦是的！！台北系列之後我們還會有更多來自其他地區的視頻！！
台南也有好茶，好風景，還有古蹟，歡迎來喔！
我們將在幾週後發布來自台南的視頻！那是一座美妙的城市！希望再次光臨！！
So good 👍👍👍
Thank you 🙏 😃
小籠包 xiao long boa is not necessarily soupy. Some restaurants specifically offer 小籠湯包 xiao long tong bao where tong = broth, soup. Those are normally more soupy than regular xiao long bao.
Oh we didn’t know that either!! Thanks for sharing your tips!! 😃
Thanks for the video! Love the tea house experience. How far was the walk from the mao kong gondola?
I think it was about a 10 minute walk! It was quite close! :)
Thank you!
Anytime! Happy travels!
Such a chill and relaxing vibe, well done guys 😀Editing was on point and you got some great b-roll. Suggest you bump up the levels on your vocals- the quality is muffled in parts but overall quite good, but the levels are a little low especially during the walk-and-talks. No need to push the gain on your mics/audio recorder, but you should be able to lift the levels in editing without even getting close to clipping or blowing out. If you get your vocals to match the levels of your music I think you'll be golden!
Hey!! Thank you so much for the tips, it is super helpful!!! We have been having some problems with our mics.. need to diagnose them!! 😢 do you have any tips for editing audio in post??
@@IfWeGoToUnfortunately it's been almost 15 years since film school and I haven't edited anything myself in a long time 😢 The part I was suggesting was to look at the audio waveforms in your editing software, and raising the levels on your vocal tracks so that the peaks match the peaks of your music tracks- does that make sense? It won't do anything to clear up a muddy recording, or fix anything if your mics are acting up- but it will at least bring your voices to the same level as your music, which will fix the problem of quiet voices and loud music.
@@IfWeGoToAlso- for the sections where you couldn't record good audio and it sounds like you were relying on the onboard mic with lots of background noise- I'm pretty sure there are filters or plugins you can use that are specifically designed to reduce noise and boost vocal frequencies. Sorry I can't recommend anything in particular, all the tech I used to edit with is 15 years old and obsolete lol, but I'm pretty sure you can find tools like that nowadays for free or cheap.
Ohhh yeah yeah. We did mess around with some of the settings but honestly the audio we collected is just bad and I don't think we could come back from it without some seriously good AI or something - we have done some sound correction and added depth using Premiere, but It seems the cords we used are not working as well as they need to be unfortunately and are collecting a lot of strange noise. We will look into some better audio balancing between the voice/music though. We have been relying on our program to make these determinations and usually we don't get feedback about the balance being off, but I think our bad cords have changed this.
Though our next few videos will probably (and unfortunately) have this problem, we'll try some new audio balancing! Thanks for pointing out this is a problem!!
23:16 I love when you do edits like this! Did you do music or dance before? I like how it cuts with the rhythm of the music
Haha thank you!! we always film everything before and pick music that kind of works later!!
@@IfWeGoTo oh no I meant did you do dance or play an instrument growing up? Haha I just thought ur likely to be a dancer or musician if you do an edit like that
@@danzwku ohhhh! Haha I must have misread!! No, we didn’t really - other than when we were kids 😂. I love music though! & Beats are usually pretty easy to pick out, but the wave forms can help if it’s hard to recognize!!
welcome to taiwan❤
Thank you!!!
👍👍
Thank you!!
歡迎，歡迎您們!
謝謝你! 😃
好喜歡聽你們的英文發音 好好聽 當然 Love this video
謝謝你! 😃 你在學英文嗎？？
@@IfWeGoTo 我没有在學英文 只是我聽到你們的英文發音 有種英國紳士和淑女的感覺 很親切 太太也很漂亮 先生也很温和穏重 總之你們的影片很吸引人来看
Ohh haha! We speak American english! But it is very similar to other accents too. :)
Thank you so much! Your comment is very kind!
@@IfWeGoTo got it Thank you so much PS:Allow me to recommend a restaurant with a night view named 草山夜未眠 to you and another restaurant named 台北陽明山The Top屋頂上 is also not bad
FYI: the Oscar-winningTaiwanese director, Ang Lee, filmed the opening scene of his movie “Life of Pi” in Taipei Zoo.
Oh we had no idea!!! That’s super cool! I will have to watch it!
@@IfWeGoToThey filmed the opening scene in Taipei Zoo with post-editing digitally, so the animals in the opening are in that zoo, including Taiwan black bear and Formosan sika deer, etc. Actually most of that movie was filmed in a pool in Taichung with artificial wave makers, and the meerkat island as well as the final landing beach were filmed in Kenting.
聽你們一講，原來迪士尼公主都是汗味(是香的喔)❤😂
哈哈哈哈哈哈我猜迪士尼公主一定是滿頭大汗 😂
@@IfWeGoTo 哈哈哈哈～不只是滿頭大汗.還濕背秀。
歡迎你們🎉
謝謝你！！
if you're down for a good xiaolongbao, no one does it with more consistency at a high level than DinTaiFung.
We loooove xiaolongbao!! But to be entirely honest, we didn’t live Din Tai Fungs!! It was good, but we thought their chili wontons were better!!
We did find some xiaolongbao in Tainan that were phenomenal though!
That intro tho..😗 *chefs kiss*
Good job, guys! Another great video.
If those butterflies are attracted to sweat, I'd have the whole damn encloser all over me, with that Taipei humidity . 😂😂
Wish we had been able to stay longer than a few days in Taiwan. You guys are really making us excited to go back. 😊
Ahh thank you so much!!
They probably would have loved you too!! 😊
Do you guys have any plans to in the near future??
@@IfWeGoTo We will likely be back in Asia some time next year..just not quite sure when.
Where are you guys at these days?!
Hope you make it back soon! Right now we are in the USA, unfortunately we have a close relative having some health struggles right now. So we'll probably be around here for a bit!
This is my home💕
You’re very lucky!!
You know what guys,... when in Taiwan, you must have/gorge on fresh all types of seafood!
What seafood would you recommend? Alan doesn’t like seafood, but I do!! Would love to try it sometime!
@@IfWeGoTo any seafood stir fried... go to the Taipei Fish Market, pick a seafood like fish or clams, shrimps, etc.. and they can cook it for you right then and there.. find a spot to nosh on... Keelung has a squid sausage with raw garlic that is delicious... Taiwan has so many it is hard to pick.. i find the food in the south and smaller villages tastes better ...and cheaper
Thank you so much for the tips! :D
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!!
Hello
I am from india
You and your video is very beautiful 👍
Hello!! Wow! What part of India are you from?! We visited India earlier this year as well!
Thank you very much for watching and your kind words! 🙏
Up
You and your wife look very beautiful
Hey! Please came india this month
Aww thank you!! We’d love to visit again and hope to soon! We’re visiting family for a bit back in our home country though!
I work at zhinan temple 4 years
Oh really?? What do you do at your job?!
@@IfWeGoTo nursing home
Oh wow!! I definitely have very much respect for those who work in care for others :)

Thank you!!’
It seems that you have fallen in love with Taiwan, do you want to consider staying here for a few years? Seeing a dentist in Taiwan is very cheap😁~~
Oh gosh yes, we very much enjoyed our time there!!
We actually did visit a dentist there!! But just to check for a problem. Do you have any recommendations on a good dentist for foreigners!
❤😂❤❤，你們兩位很懂吃
這是旅行中最好的部分之一！😋
I love pangolins. To me they don't get enough attention. They are mammals equipped with their own lorica squamata. I think they are at least as awesome as platypuses. I still haven't managed to see one in the wild though. Hopefully one of these days I will have a chance encounter with them when I go hiking. They are called lâ-lí here in the local Taigi language, and qam, HaRem, and qalum in various indigenous Austronesian languages, ultimately from *qaRem in Proto-Austronesian. This word managed to survive in Austronesian languages in Borneo as ahem or ayem. The problem is that since the Philippines was not connected to the rest of Sundaland, nor Taiwan, nor Asian mainland, it didn't have any pangolins. Meaning early Austronesians settlers from Taiwan didn't expand slowly through the Philippines, but expanded fast enough for the word for pangolin to still be fresh in the memories when early settlers in Borneo met one.
I always have butterflies landing on me when I go hiking as well. I used to think I too am a Disney princess. Thanks to your video, now I know it'd just because I have BO...
Oh definitely! They are amazing creatures.. I hope they get the attention they deserve! And the little bit of history you shared about them is very interesting - thank you!
Do you know where the best are in Taiwan to see them is??
Hahah someone here said that it is good luck to have all of the butterflies land on you - maybe you are lucky too (or maybe it is just BO, who knows! lol)! :D

Can somebody share the google map location of HUMBLE HOUSE? Can’t find it on maps. Thank you
goo.gl/maps/CpFtynzqxTNsV6ft6
If you go, it has the red umbrellas and styrofoam/rock sign!
hope that helps!! :D
Pandas!!! 🐼🐼🐼🐼😱😱😱
They’re so cute!!! We found out the San Diego zoo doesn’t have them anymore either
Oh no!!! I want to see pandas. I suppose I need to go to Taiwan and eat some soup dumplings too. I love soup dumplings.
@louisecallanta5968 you can visit when you decide to revisit Japan too!! It’s worth a stop!
26:38 that makes me laugh so hard😂😂😂😂
It was a wild ride 😂
taipei zoo is biggest zoo in asia
Definitely not surprised!! It was huuuge 😱
😊👍
Thank you!!! ❤️
Butterfly-chosen Disney Prince😍
Right??? 😍
This is a great trip and funny!
Hahaha thank you!! It was one of our favorite days!!
Love the video, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!!
That’s not basil. That’s water spinach or ong choy. Beef with that veggie is probably one of the most common stir fry dishes around Taiwan.
Ahh thank you!! We thought it was, but it definitely didn’t taste like it!! Uh was delicious though!!
😎❤️🇹🇼‼️
Thank you!!

Can I reach the milestones of 1K or 2K here ?❤️
Good luck! 🤗
San diego zoo charge 110
It’s pretty expensive now 😣
Hi, I hope you can help. I've been on Google maps for the last hour, trying to find the route to humble house from the tea promotional center but I'm not sure where it is. Can you help? Which road should we walk into (can't find the shrine/landmark too).
Hi!! Yes, I’d be happy to help!!
On google the name of the exact tea house is “寒舍茶坊” and the address is No. 6號, Lane 40, Section 3, Zhinan Rd, Wenshan District, Taipei City, Taiwan 116.
The address may pull up a location called the “Yao Yue Teahouse”! The Humble house and the Yao Yue Teahouse have the same main entrance, you’ll find an archway with red lanterns! Follow the road until a fork, and you’ll go follow the track with the styrofoam sign in our video at 21:27!
I hope that helps! If you need any more direction please let me know! Hope you have a great trip! 😃
@@IfWeGoTo I see that, actually found it on google maps, but I think the street view isn't updated, so it doesn't really show me where to go, or where that fork on the road or the tori gate is. T_T
@@IfWeGoTo I found it!!
@@ayzprincess ohh it won’t come up on street view because the Humble House set back on a walking path! The drivers with google’s cameras only stick to public roads!!
You can see the gate you need to enter from the road at 15:02 in the video though! You’ll walk through that down the path which cars can’t access!
So you walk straight down that foot path and there will be a fork in the path, you’ll see two signs. The one at 15:11 in the video, and the one at 21:11.
Follow the sign at 21:11!
Oh fantastic!! I hope you have an amazing trip! If you need any extra help, don't hesitate to reach out! :) @@ayzprincess
Do not drink oolong tea before food:) drink 30 minutes after a meal. Never on empty stomach;) and yes- that’s the best tea in the world - but u must know how to make it;)
Oh yes, it can make you sick huh?? Thank you!!
Taiwan Zoo play fee

Thank you!!! Also love the the animal emojis!!! 🦒
Brandi sounds a bit muted in this video. Perhaps you need a better microphone? It will certainly pay back in views. Love the channel btw.
Hi!! We noticed that too! we’ve got a great microphone set, but we recently had to switch a cable so I think something may be off with it! Going to buy a new one soon!
Thanks for pointing it out though, your feedback really helps!!
來台灣一定要吃雞排

Low blood pressure??? 😅

Was that filmed here too!!
I like your video. But don’t just stay in the cities of Taiwan. There are a lot more to see at the east coast, mountainside, and outer islands. Trust me:)
Thank you so much!! We have a few videos left on Taipei (we tried to cover it pretty comprehensively!!), but we also have some from Hualien, Kaohsiung (and Cijin), Tainan, and Lambai island coming too! 😃
Your girlfriend is beautiful. If I were you, I would love her forever.
Thank you!!!
我喜歡你們的影片，但是這里不是中國，是台灣，請你尊重

Why were you wearing those silly masks?? Is it "mandatory?
Some businesses still request you wear them, so yeah
