Nice video, I don’t know who made your Chinese subtitle but it would be better if you could hire a Taiwanese for your subtitle. Your translator used too many terms from China. For example avocado we call it 酪梨 not 鱷梨 and mayo is 美奶滋 not 蛋黃醬. A bit disturbing. Anyways hope this will help to expand your audience in Taiwan :)
Actually the person who subtitles my videos is from southern Taiwan but has lived abroad for a long time in 🇨🇦 which is why maybe their vocab is different from what is normally used here. Regardless, I hope you enjoyed the video and my take on Keelung :)
We really had a blast during this trip! It was fun to have you with us, and definitely refreshing to see those 2 days through your eyes! To many more! 🍻
We have jelly bean houses on the coasts in the UK (we don't call them that, I don't think they have a name), I never knew that's why they painted them like that! Kwan Yin (goddess of mercy) is my girl! I thought maybe the multiple armed goddess in the mountain temple was a version of her as Avalokiteshvara (an androgynous Deity) who she started out as, but could be wrong after reading online it might be Tara. Taiwan is so beautiful, it has nature, history and cute modern cafes, it's so full of culture 😁 you picked a good place to live!
I love your videos. 🧡 I used to live in Taipei and when I went back home, I still go and visit at least once a year. Last time I was there was Dec 2019 then COVID happened and ruined my 2020 (and looks like my 2021 plans as well). I miss it terribly. Living vicariously through you for now. Keep the videos coming! 😊
Your video reminded me of Anthony Bourdain's Keelung night market episode years back. He really nailed it with Taiwan's culture, history, and especially food.
@@LayersOfJenn He was a famous American chef and travel documentarian who was dead in 2018😞 I loved watching his show “Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations “ so much...
@@LayersOfJenn Anthony Bourdain is so worth researching! He was a deep soul who really gave so much exposure to the way food connects people and always produced his own videos, traveled to less popular places. A must see, read, watch! And I love your videos, found you from her.atlas!
Thank you for that little piece of history of Keelung for those Taiwanese that don't know much about Taiwan history (me😅). I love black cats too. Really hope I could have one in the future!
4:25 The birds singing in the background is Taiwan barbet 6:55 YES!! And I love butterflies so much that I would try to raise them myself if I find the larvae in the wild bc there are too many predators outside. Then I would release them after they emerge
@@LayersOfJenn I love birds so much since I was in elementary school lol Thanks to my mom who bought a series of tapes recording many Taiwanese wild birds songs. And those helped me memorized many common species till today
Such a nice video! I love how the locals seem to interact a lot with you guys and show you around. That is amazing! For European standards, it's pretty inexpensive regarding costs. You are giving me Taiwan vacay fever!! Congrats on yet another awesome video!
Thank you very much!! I swear every trip I have an experience like this with someone. Even when I went to Nanto! I just didn’t film it then but a nice person helped me.
The "Keelung" sign is a step above the "Hollywood" sign, which hasn't been light since the 2000 New Years Eve celebration, and that was only for that one night! Prior to that, the "Hollywood" sign hadn't been lit since the 1940's.
Ohhh I had no idea lol. I thought it was cool we could walk up to the Keelung sign and not be fined ! Because in my head if you to go to close to the Hollywood sign… Aren’t you fined!? 🤔
@@LayersOfJenn The area around the sign has a chain-link fence. You'd technically be trespassing, but the odds of being fined would be rather low unless you actually altered, defaced or damaged the sign. People have altered it to read "Hollyweed", "hollyweird", and "caltech" in the past. There are many hiking trails in the hills around that area, On a clear day, the view of downtown LA and the ocean is pretty special. When first put up, the sign read "Hollywoodland" and was intended to be an advertisement for a housing development just below where the sign is located.
The cactus ice cream is my favorite. It's made from Crab Cactus fruit and is actually a local dessert of Penghu. Love it since I first ate it at my elementary school fair.
I really enjoy your little trips around Taiwan. It's like I'm there with you even all the way from Scotland. Looking forward to see where you will heading to next.
Not gonna lie - I'm so jealous that you're having all these fun adventures! The food looks incredible, and the sights are truly spectacular. I also didn't know about the "jellybean houses" and why they were painted those bright colours. Very cool! Meanwhile, here in Ontario, we're going into lockdown again (3rd time in the past year), so I can only imagine. Then again, there isn't as much to see here anyway (not within walking distance, at least). lol
Yes! It’s an Atlantic Canada thing~ I’m not sure about the west coast 🤔 And stay safe back home in Canada. I’m kinda shocked at how slow Canada is rolling out the vaccine too TBH
@@LayersOfJenn For sure, I will be very careful. Yeah, I'm pretty stunned by how poorly the vaccination process has been going here. Seems like the US is gonna beat us to the finish line. Oh well...🤷
Hi! I love your videos. I'm Taiwanese but I live in Germany and I miss Taiwan but your videos help me so much:) I'm planning on moving to Taiwan this summer though.
This definitely is an affordable trip for sure. The places you went to should be guided by locals or who are familiar with the area. This is more like an in-depth city tour that different from just going to eat at Keelung night market.
This is my dad’s hometown. His family owns a store there and I used to visit during the summer growing up. Was very nostalgic watching your video. Thanks for sharing!! Hopefully I’ll get to go back to visit soon!
OH, I love this vlog. The Renai market reminds of crazy rich Asian, where they go this kind of place more a meal. I never had an interest in Taiwan nor knew anything about it but I feel like I am learning a lot more than I did before. Cannot wait for you to soon hit 100k. P.s this trips is so cheap. £76 is a great deal
Ohh! I miss so much the old beginning of your videos, you doing coffee and your makeup and just chatting. But I love your travel vlogs, I learned so much of places I don't even knew existed. Thank You! I always enjoy your content. ❤️
I really enjoyed watching this video! I appreciate that you always provide background information about the history and meaning of the places you visit !! :)
We are applying to adopt a girl from Taiwan, I just found your videos and I am LOVING all the stuff you show beyond street food and market shops (those look fun too 😜) thanks!
This is the city my father grew up and you were lucky not meeting any rain during your trip. Keelung is the most rainy city in Taiwan (200+ raining days per year). If you plan to visit again, I would recommend to combine the trip to Jiufen (九份) and Badouzi (八斗子) where you can find a interesting Badouzi Train Station, the National Museum of Marine Science and Technology, and the beautiful seaside parks (There are two of them, one is on a hill and need to climb a bit called 忘憂谷, the other is right by the Musume called 潮境公園). Or you may want to book a boat trip to the Keelung Islet which just opens to public visit in recent years.
That looks like a super fun trip! I went to Keelung from Taipei when I was there but just a little 1/2 day trip to visit one of the night markets that happened to have loads of vegan stalls! It was also the first place I ever tried bubble tea so it holds a special place in my heart!
@@LayersOfJenn Yeah! I was so excited / surprised at how much there was. This is pretty old now but I wrote about the options on my old blog back in 2016, here's a link veganinbrighton.blogspot.com/2016/02/night-market-eats-in-keelung-taiwan.html
Watches like a documentary...really enjoyed this one as usual:) It’s really cool to see places via your videos that I will likely never see. Can’t wait for more!
Halifax has those loading docks here now too, there is a bunch of the cranes by Point Pleasant Park and in The Bedford Basin in Fairview cove so it really does look even more like there now. Downtown has changed a lot over the past few years , and the city just keeps spreading out further and further in all directions , you’d be surprised I think. Out this way it’s not so bad so far, the road isn’t wide enough to handle traffic and houses are right up to the road so they can’t widen it much. There are a few subdivisions sneaking in though, it won’t be long. Looks like you had a blast👍🏻. Much more fun to go explore with new friends is better than alone . 🙋🏼 It was a really cheap trip.
Another great temple you should visit is Wenwu Temple (No. 63, Zhongzheng Road, Yuchi Township, Nantou County, Taiwan 555) It is really great, spectacular temple design and breath taking view. (Went there in 2020, you have my word on it) 😁
Haha , you are lucky to visit there on a sunny day, Keelung gets alot of rain due to geography reasons(moisture from the pacific gets block by the mountains there), I think it rains over 300 days of the year
nice visit, my wife and I stopped by Keelung in 2018, we stayed at a little hotel I think it was East Coast Hotel, it was over near the cruise ship docking, but I had checked out several small hotels in the area online prior to the trip since we traveled without reservations, and just walked up to the front desk each time to ask for a room. The perception of "expensive" versus not, is simply proportional to how much money is in your pocket at the time.I do enjoy visiting Taiwan now, with a better budget and not needing to look for or chase down the absolute best deal or least expensive paths. Travel can be accomplished on many levels of budgets, so hopefully all of your viewers will get out there and travel at times.
What a wonderful travel video. ❤ Thank you for letting us know the budget of the trip - I think this is so helpful information! (And also so much work with all the different currencies!!)
It can be which is why I generally put it on screen once at the end! I know Conversion rates fluctuate daily but… I think it’s still an important include~
@@LayersOfJenn It is definitely enough to get a feeling for the costs, even if the rates fluctuate a bit. So: Thanks again for including it! I'm looking forward to your next trip. 🥰
@@LayersOfJenn last time was only for 2 weeks, I spent a week in Japan, it was great but wasnt enough, have time planned for this year but with covid, might end up pushing that to later time 😔
I think this is my favorite place you've showed us from Taiwan so far! i would love to live in this place, its so beautiful and full of history but also seems pretty modern
Enjoyed this video of Keelung. 🥰 If you plan to visit Keelung again, I’d suggest that you take a tour of its fish market, which typically starts coming alive early in the morning, like 1am, where you would see its true character as a port city in Northern Taiwan. There are also shops and restaurants where you could sample the freshest sashimi or other seafood.
Jen, I loved your Japan vlogs and I'm really enjoying getting to see Taiwan with you! Just realized that you're over 40k subscribers... The growth is definitely deserved. The variety in your content is great. Keep up the good work! 👍🏽👍🏽🤗😁
Another great video. We really enjoy your trips. Especially since we can't get there this year. We got to visit Lunenburg, NS in 2015. It was amazing to get to walk around the Jellybean houses. We wondered why they were so colorful and now we do. So fun that you got to meet up with i'mRudolpho. His videos are incredible.
This vlog has me itching to travel again! Thanks for taking us with you. You got beautiful shots and I appreciate the information you provide about each location!
Thanks, I had been to Xian Dong Yan back in 1998 I think and was wondering the name of the place. Thanks to you, I now know (remember). The trip was reasonable, as you said, I'm sure that it could have been a little cheaper, but the time you saved might have saved you another night's hotel room. Thanks for the video (from Ottawa).
Thank you so much of indicating those foreign currency like Singapore 🇸🇬 dollars. And of-course I'm from Singapore so given me the budget we need to spend on our next trips in Taiwan, many thanks again 😊🙏
When I'm out walking on certain islands, I always seem to see vehicle-carrying vessels leaving Hong Kong on their way to Keelung. The vessels are very distinctive, probably what draws my attention them.
Welcome to my home town and hope you like this city. Next time you may go to the sea side and it won't take you too much time from the train station to the coast. You can see the beautiful Pacific Ocean~
@@LayersOfJenn After watching your video many memories but also different impressions came to my mind.Taiwan is magic you think you know it but then ney point of views show up. I will enjoy some more of your trips and recommend you to my friends
Thank you for always taking the time to do the price conversions. This trip didn’t seem too expensive at all. I love black cats too! What was playing on your tv screen at the end? It looked so peaceful and aesthetic.
Ohhh I often just play a fireplace video because when I read I listen to it. And then it filters though to other videos. Sometimes a rain forest brother times a snowy village etc :)
Omg I went to Halifax to participate in an English summer camp 20 years ago. I miss there so much! I will visit again in the future! Btw, I always like the style of your video !🌸
I haven’t been to Keeung but I definitely want to try it. I really Want to visit Hsinchu. I’m an urban planner and want to see newer cities outside of Taipei, Tainan, Kaohsiung, Taichung feel like.

To more food and adventures ❤️❤️
So happy to see you guys get together in this video!! because I am learning languages through your both channels!! 加油~很棒！！
I absolutely love how the citizens of Keelung are just letting Mother Nature take back what is rightfully hers. It’s so mystical and beautiful...
So stunning !

I had no idea there is a cat village !?

幾年前夏天 一個人去基隆公園
正在欣賞基隆港 大輪船側邊靠岸時
看到超大超長無毒蛇 閃過路邊草叢
基隆整年多雨溫濕 如此環境蛇超多
台灣屬副熱帶 多山多雨雜草旺盛
出門上山要穿長靴 最好隨身帶傘或拐杖
傘 : 大太陽或下雨皆可用
拐杖 : 趕野狗 驅蟲 打草驚蛇(成語)
虺！？！！ 👁 👄 👁
Omg so scary 🥲
影片步調真的很棒，很喜歡，也很喜歡你去的大自然地方還有介紹文化，這次看到你跟魯道夫他們一起很有趣🙂 沒記錯你早上說要喝咖啡那個地方是滿有名賣海產的市集，他們凌晨3點才開始擺攤，(最近一個韓國的youtuber才拍過，叫金針菇) 既然認識了魯道夫夫妻那可以也認識法國人路易(也是youtuber)
很喜歡影片裡的一句話,一切雜草叢生大自然正在收回屬於他的東西,我也覺得大自然是我們最親愛的母親,希望我們能用人類的智慧永遠愛護她！

Wow it rains that much?! I’ve heard it’s a rainy city but I didn’t realize it’s THAT often haha
nice visit, my wife and I stopped by Keelung in 2018, we stayed at a little hotel I think it was East Coast Hotel, it was over near the cruise ship docking, but I had checked out several small hotels in the area online prior to the trip since we traveled without reservations, and just walked up to the front desk each time to ask for a room. The perception of "expensive" versus not, is simply proportional to how much money is in your pocket at the time.I do enjoy visiting Taiwan now, with a better budget and not needing to look for or chase down the absolute best deal or least expensive paths. Travel can be accomplished on many levels of budgets, so hopefully all of your viewers will get out there and travel at times.
Love this format.
Wow everything is so affordable! Can't wait to hit up TW next year!
That boba looked soooooo good holy moly! Awesome video!! /Frida
So curious what that mansion looked like originally. I bet it was beautiful! Thanks for taking us along.
Jellybean houses 😍😍 def insta worthy shot 📸
I took some photos there 😉 lol
What a wonderful travel video. ❤ Thank you for letting us know the budget of the trip - I think this is so helpful information! (And also so much work with all the different currencies!!)
It can be which is why I generally put it on screen once at the end! I know Conversion rates fluctuate daily but… I think it’s still an important include~
@@LayersOfJenn It is definitely enough to get a feeling for the costs, even if the rates fluctuate a bit. So: Thanks again for including it! I'm looking forward to your next trip. 🥰
Welcome to Keelung! The Greater Keelung area is the best place in Taiwan, no doubt.
So glad to you display those places in Taiwan to the whole world. Enjoy it!
Wow! This trip was very affordable!
Hi Jenn, tks for yr video really appreciate yu convert yr NT to various country rates esp Singapore,tats the best..keepfilming..❤
watching your videos makes me want to go back so much and stay for a longer time
How long did you stay for before!?
@@LayersOfJenn last time was only for 2 weeks, I spent a week in Japan, it was great but wasnt enough, have time planned for this year but with covid, might end up pushing that to later time 😔
Yeah sadly a lot of places are not any better in 2021 :(
So jelly about all your traveling videos. Love living vicariously through your videos!
Great video! Please do another sit down catch up video letting us know how’s it going,
I’m going to do a Q&A video soon I think ~
I think this is my favorite place you've showed us from Taiwan so far! i would love to live in this place, its so beautiful and full of history but also seems pretty modern
Ohh really !?!? Yay I am glad to hear that because I really feel like Keelung is underrated !!
Enjoyed this video of Keelung. 🥰 If you plan to visit Keelung again, I’d suggest that you take a tour of its fish market, which typically starts coming alive early in the morning, like 1am, where you would see its true character as a port city in Northern Taiwan. There are also shops and restaurants where you could sample the freshest sashimi or other seafood.
We were going to go to the fish market but we were so tired 😅 next time though ~
Aww I never made it to Keelung when I was in Taiwan! Looks so awesome, I need to go back!
Next time ✨ 😉
Jen, I loved your Japan vlogs and I'm really enjoying getting to see Taiwan with you! Just realized that you're over 40k subscribers... The growth is definitely deserved. The variety in your content is great. Keep up the good work! 👍🏽👍🏽🤗😁
Thank you so much 🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️
Awesome footages. Love the scenes. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you always ✨
Very good😊💯🎊😄🎉😄🇹🇼很棒!
Thank youuuu :)
Jenn thanks for taking us along ... Wonderful video 👌
Thank you for joining me :)
Another great video. We really enjoy your trips. Especially since we can't get there this year. We got to visit Lunenburg, NS in 2015. It was amazing to get to walk around the Jellybean houses. We wondered why they were so colorful and now we do. So fun that you got to meet up with i'mRudolpho. His videos are incredible.
That’s why they are colourful ~ although I’ve also heard it doesn’t really work 😂😅 but it’s a fun idea!
And his videos are incredible!
Wow you did good on the budget for a fun couple of days!
I thought the budget was pretty on point too!
This vlog has me itching to travel again! Thanks for taking us with you. You got beautiful shots and I appreciate the information you provide about each location!
I learn as I go sometimes ~ so when I learn something after the fact I have to add it on via voiceover~
Love your video! Omg 😳 that trip is so affordable and fun! I would love to visit those same spots the next time I visit Taiwan.
Yay!!
Always excited to watch your travels. Very soothing and relaxing to watch. Can’t wait for your next adventure to share 🥰
Thanks, I had been to Xian Dong Yan back in 1998 I think and was wondering the name of the place. Thanks to you, I now know (remember). The trip was reasonable, as you said, I'm sure that it could have been a little cheaper, but the time you saved might have saved you another night's hotel room. Thanks for the video (from Ottawa).
For sure! I think transportation could have been about $800 NTD instead!!
& much love going out to you in my home capital 🇨🇦❤️
Resident of Keelung city coming here for thumbs up👍👍👍and I can't stop staring your beautiful blue eyes👀
Awe haha thank you. 👀👀👀
I love it ! Keelung is my hometown .I hope you love this city .❤❤❤
I really did enjoy it ❤️
Thank you so much of indicating those foreign currency like Singapore 🇸🇬 dollars. And of-course I'm from Singapore so given me the budget we need to spend on our next trips in Taiwan, many thanks again 😊🙏
I am glad to incorporate it because I know watching international vloggers stating prices I cannot follow 😅
When I'm out walking on certain islands, I always seem to see vehicle-carrying vessels leaving Hong Kong on their way to Keelung. The vessels are very distinctive, probably what draws my attention them.
Ohhh really!? Interesting ✨
love seeing another part of Taiwan
More coming soon~ I’m off this week to another place!
@@LayersOfJenn I'm excited and I can't wait to see.
Welcome to my home town and hope you like this city. Next time you may go to the sea side and it won't take you too much time from the train station to the coast. You can see the beautiful Pacific Ocean~
I wanted to get to elephant rock etc but no time~ which means I’ll have to go back next time ✨
Nice to see your view of this trip ! Great work ! and gosh after the market view i am hungry ...
Me too while editing haha
我就是看了魯道夫基隆那一集知道妳的，然後就訂閱了😆，妳很棒，加油喔！
I am looking forward to watching this video now
I seen your other comment on my video too! Thank you 🙇♀️
@@LayersOfJenn After watching your video many memories but also different impressions came to my mind.Taiwan is magic you think you know it but then ney point of views show up. I will enjoy some more of your trips and recommend you to my friends
Wanna see you visit south place of Taiwan!Like Kaohsiung or Tainan .And in the summer can go to Kenting！！
I have those on my list! I’m trying to figure out how to get to kenting & get around. I can’t drive here😅😂
@@LayersOfJenn meet some new friends in Taiwan 😂😂😂🌚🌚🌚
Everything is super affordable! Wow
Thank you for always taking the time to do the price conversions. This trip didn’t seem too expensive at all. I love black cats too! What was playing on your tv screen at the end? It looked so peaceful and aesthetic.
Ohhh I often just play a fireplace video because when I read I listen to it. And then it filters though to other videos. Sometimes a rain forest brother times a snowy village etc :)
Really loving theses videos ❤️❤️❤️ I appreciate you risking to do this for us🥺🥺🥺
Thank you!! I’m not risking anything to film there ☺️ everything is safe here!
@@LayersOfJenn that’s great to hear❤️❤️❤️ stay safe always 😊
So many places I’ve never been, so beautiful, I’m going to plan a trip to 基隆😁, and may I know the last two songs in your video? Love it!
Omg I went to Halifax to participate in an English summer camp 20 years ago. I miss there so much! I will visit again in the future!
Btw, I always like the style of your video !🌸
Wow really haha. That is my hometown ❤️
Your home town is a very lovely city! The house in there are also beautiful ☺️！

Hsinchu has so many new buildings in certain areas !! Def worth seeing if you’re into it ~
