Oh~~ dear hope you get well ASAP!!! Northern Taiwan can get wet n cold, the humidity silently double up the cold... Ginger black sugar tea/ 薑汁黑糖 will do you good~~~~
When i read "我在太平山上生病了", i thought you caught a cold on Taipingshan. In Taiwan, we call carsick as 暈車 seasick as 暈船 (船=ship, ferry, boat..) airsick as 暈機 (機 means 飛機=airplane, aircraft..) Hope these would help you a bit if you are learning Mandarin now. Enjoy the life here and hope you film more videos in Taiwan. ^__^
@@LayersOfJenn Lol....^O^ The logic in Mandarin is a bit different from English. When you got motion sickness via A. Then we would say 暈A. So 暈"車" is that you got motion sickness via car. 暈"船" is that you got motion sickness via ferry, ship or boat.. 暈:機" is that you got motion sickness via airplane, aircraft.. 車 is the general word that we call the transportation with four wheels on the road. 船 is the general word that we call the transportation on water (river, sea..) 飛機 is the general word that we call the transportation with wings in sky. 機 means 飛機, when we say 暈機
You're amazing Jen. You speak Japanese and now you try to speak Mandarin to the locals whenever you can. That is the respectful thing to do but very few people will do it. Kudos to you ☺️👍👍
@@LayersOfJenn Ha ha as a native speaker I've to say that you really pronounced it well(the four-tones) and I believe soon you will be able to master this language as well. You are just amazing! :)
I love Yilan ❤️ that’s where I studied uni. I usually took bus from Taipei to Yilan, every time when the bus came out of tunnel, the view of the whole Lanyang plain, with Turtle Island aside the ocean always touches my heart ❤️ the down side was the traffic jam. Yilan has a country feel to it with many scenic places to go, I especially love riding scooter in Yilan around rural areas when after it rained, it has a bit smell of the grass in the air, which is very refreshing ☺️ The cafe looks adorable 😍 I want to visit Yilan right away❤️ And I’ve been to Taiping shan before but didn’t know the hot spring, I have to go! When I visited Japan, I always love going to hot springs, and I actually prefer the way in Japan, inTaiwan I guess we are more conservative going nudities in front of others haha, there’s only a few nude hot springs in Taiwan.
I like Japanese hot springs too just most I cannot enter unless it’s private because I have tattoos! And I would love to drive around on a scooter but alas, I can’t 😭 I did however get to see an awesome view of turtle island from the train ☺️
I agree!! I did those in japan. I can only do a lot of private baths in Japan because if my tattoos. Majority of public hot spring in japan I cannot enter 🙃
I love how it started raining here in Hawaii as I watched your rainy vlog! Such a beautiful trip, I definitely will be adding Taiwan to my bucket list.
Hi Jennifer, I was born and grew up in Yilan, I feel so emotional attached after watching this video! All I can say is that you impressed me by picking out these locations to visit for your 3-day Yilan trip like a pro! I used to live in a small township called Sanxing under Taiping mountain, by which you must pass to get to the only entrance of forest recreation area. Our family went up to Jiuzhize hot spring every weekend in the winter when it was not that well known. Also, Wufengqi waterfall and Shengmu (St. Marian’s) hiking trail are both worth challenging if in a breezy sunny afternoon. I am glad you take a look and bring me there again via your point of view. I really appreciate how you tried to understand those historical stories behind each place. Watching your video made me encounter my reminiscing childhood memories. I started feeling a pang of homesickness in Boston!
I literally run to my computer when I get your notification I love your adventures but I’m just as thrilled when you chit chat with us while you cook your the best!
It makes me so happy to see you solo traveling. I want to do that too. I live in the states, in West Virginia. It's mostly mountains and I just wanna explore my state more
@@LayersOfJenn Oh, we know. It's like saying that Tokyo is Japan...No, it's not. After 4 trips in different regions, there is clearly a difference in the country... So yeah, Taipei was great, but i'm sure the south of the country is great too. As soon as Miss Pandemiquia leave this Earth, we'll start planning!!!
Something magical. After I watched a couples of your videos, I looked around and the blue sky, things looked sweeter and I feel graceful for everything I have. Thanks for sharing!
The peanut ice cream next to the green onion cake is also famous. There is a gorgeous trail in "太平山", called "Jianqing Historic Trail ". A lot of foreign youtuber filmed before, and they love it so so so much. I highly recommend to go to "Meihua Lake" when you come to Yilan next time. It's my favorite spot, so quiet and relax.
I love the breakdown of everything you do, from how you get there to the total budget!! Super helpful for me, who just moved to Taiwan and is wanting to travel solo soon 😊😊😊 also, your Chinese pronunciation is really good!! So glad you’re having fun in Taiwan 💖
Love how you edit the video. Great tempo, voice, description, and even the background music. As a salary man living in Taipei, I often visit Ilan to try delicious food too. Subscribed your channel. Thanks for your sharing.
nice choice, lots of nice things around Ilan, (alt. spelling) my wife and I had so much fun stopping at 7 different places in one day by motorcycle there on our 2018 trip, (including a stop at SUAO Cold Spring (and in hot August, she was in that water very fast/ the big park was being renovated but Japanese style private rooms are there too across the street). Hey, that is where we stayed ,Grand Boss Hotel. directly across the street is a night market. **nice hot spring place there in your video, I went to one hot spring once in a river bed, with rocks around the sides, and very hot fresh spring water seeping out of the mountainside, but that was near LaLa Shan, or was Xing Xing Nung Shan area. Great Trip. Ilan has a great many things to see and do, a bit south they have an entire forest industry park that we stopped at on our way to Suao, and we returned up another road and stopped at the Traditional Arts center too, and even included a Bubble Tea Museum for a stop too (Crayon Factory, we did the shopping in the lobby/ not the full tour). many many things there.
Wow you guys went by motorcycle!? There were quite a few in the mountain. I could see that ride up and down being really fun with all the twists and turns ~
@@LayersOfJenn despite traveling lighter than ever before with my wife/ we still had a little too much to do the entire trip by motorcycle, so we combined trains busses and rental motorcycles in various places to get around more effectively and reduce miles on our feet, (and my wife knows I lived in Taipei from 1990-1993, so she doesn't worry about the driving and route) It was a great trip, odd how you can see almost as much in two weeks of vacation as you can in three years of weekends while busy with other things.
It’s really fun to see Taiwan through your eyes and camera. You totally capture the calm and peaceful atmosphere of Yilan. Also like to see when you interact with the locals. Enjoy watching your channel can't wait to see the next one!
I love your travel vlogs so much... in those crazy times, between lockdowns and curfews and cut salary, watching you discover Taiwan is really helping with my travel bug! Taiwan is my next international destination (hopefully in not too long *fingers crossed*), I bookmarked so many spots already from your vlogs and IG stories. I can’t wait for the next one!
I really liked this video! Love the trips you're taking in Taiwan. I've been a subscriber for quite a while, but I don't really comment. I actually never comment on videos but I saw your channel was growing as of late and just wanted to say: You deserve it! Thank you for making these lovely videos for us to enjoy ☺️
Song around the 17:14 min mark? I think this was a beautiful trip for about $620 CAD especially for taking into account food, transportation and lodging! AMAZING :) Absolutely loooove it.
Hi Jenn, My name is Jen. Thank you for giving this awesome tour of Yilan which is my hometown, and I resides in Canada now. Those place were amazingly nice which I would visit them again when I travel back home. Your video is really informative:))))
A very nice tour! I think it was a little expensive for one person, but you had no other friends that could have gone with you to share the expenses. But, with all that being said, you still had a great time in Yilan! Thanks for sharing!
This is my first video watching from you and oh my god what an amazing video. I love nature and Taiwan sure has some gorgeous places to visit. I hope once this pandemic is over I can travel there and explore some of the beautiful places Taiwan has to offer. 謝謝
You are really a great explorer and you went to my relatives' home town. I stayed at the Boss Hotels many times there. Yilan is a wonderful town with nice people and beautiful girls. The weather could be hard to endure in the winter and you are experiencing it! I hope you enjoy visiting there. You made the town prettier than it was in sun shinning day!
It was nice of the driver to help you film. This trip looked like so much fun! ~500 USD for three days isn't that bad, especially if the price will be cut by adding a few people to the trip.
I've been super busy with work so only just got chance to sit down and watch but omg I loved it 😍 The onsen water reminds me of the blue lagoon in Iceland, or umijigoku in Beppu!
Yay! Ive been eagerly awaiting another solo travel video. We're in lockdown again over here and it makes me happy to see people getting to live their lives in a safe way rather than watching UK travel bloggers trying to break / bend rules to go places. Weirdly I was actually in Jiaoxi at a hot springs hotel almost exactly 5 years ago to the day! I can't wait to come back to Taiwan once it's safe to travel again, I was last there three years ago, and I'll definitely be visiting the mountain area and taking a tour - it is a little pricy just for one person but I'd probably travel with someone and after almost two years of going nowhere I think a little splurge is probably ok!
Loved the video!!!👍🏼😁❤️ Like that you always put in the cost of everything! To just get an idea if you ever want to compare or think about doing a solo trip yourself! Thank you!
There's a common saying in Taiwan that goes '竹風蘭雨'. That means 'Ilan is famous for raining while Cinchu is well-known for strong winds'. Your journey started from a kind of extremity and ended in another form of extremity. In fact the winds in Penghu are stronger than those in Cinchu during the wintertime but many tourists flocked to Penghu this year when this pandemic is wreaking havoc on the whole world and traveling abroad runs the risk of getting infected and involves loads of hassle.
Haha when you put it like that, I guess I did go from one weather extreme to another. And Hsinchu is def windy but I think I’ll like the wind in the summer when it’s hot 🔥
Everything about this vlog was beautiful! I really love your hair so much! I am also so amazed and admire at how comfortable and willing you are to learn and go to new places on your own.
Can't believe you're already able to communicate in Chinese! That is so cool considering how short of a time you've been learning. Way to go👍 Your accent is quite good too, comparing to many other foreigners.
hey Jen, keep exploring, if you ever make it to Chaozhou Township, a major southern Pingtung transition to north/south, you can hit me up. And I can give you a quick tour. enjoy.
I haven’t been watching youtube that much lately, but I just started again and came back to all your wonderful videos, your voice always relaxes me and it is so fun to watch everything 🥰
Love it! I kinda miss my hometown cause I am in Australia now. In summer time, there are so many fun things to do as well like jumping from the top of waterfall & having a good bbq time.😉
I love your videos, thank u for introduce my country. wish u have a really good time there. Also, pls visit south Taiwan, east Taiwan, and the islands around Taiwan. I cannot wait to watch the videos of these few areas
For some reason I just got notified about this video but I loved it! Your editing is so good and you’re one of the few TH-camrs I can watch without getting motion sick. Thank you for your stabilization. 😂
AWESOME Video! Great content with many cut scenes that make us feel we're actually traveling with... - very informative even for a fellow Taiwan resident. Blessings & Please STAY SAFE!
I used to be a soldier in Yilan. I lived there for 2 years. Yilan is a beautiful place to visit. I enjoy this awesome video you make. C'est bon. 非常謝謝你. Thank you a lot. Merci beaucoup.
Taking solo trips now has all the benefits of doing it normally, but with the extra benefit of much smaller crowds so you have more time to actually see the sights and speak with shopkeepers, knowing you're helping to keep them in business until we are able to safely open sites in the usual way.

I really like the budget aspect to your trip. It feels economical, like anyone could do it.
I’m glad you like that part. I want to help people plan a realistic trip. Not just watch and wonder if they can do it it’ll not.
Of course,More economical than in Japan and South Korea.😂
That is exactly why I can travel here more than I ever did in Japan.

*Fun fact:* I got really car sick on the way up Taipingshan that I had to take a break & then sit in the front seat 😅😂 我在太平山上生病了。

In Taiwan, we call carsick as 暈車
seasick as 暈船 (船=ship, ferry, boat..)
airsick as 暈機 (機 means 飛機=airplane, aircraft..)
Hope these would help you a bit if you are learning Mandarin now.
Enjoy the life here and hope you film more videos in Taiwan. ^__^
Oops maybe I translated it wrong 😂😅
Oops haha I meant car sick like, motion sickness. Oops 😂😅 would a car motion sickness qualify as airplane sickness or ferry 🤔
@@LayersOfJenn
Lol....^O^
The logic in Mandarin is a bit different from English.
When you got motion sickness via A.
Then we would say 暈A.
So 暈"車" is that you got motion sickness via car.
暈"船" is that you got motion sickness via ferry, ship or boat..
暈:機" is that you got motion sickness via airplane, aircraft..
車 is the general word that we call the transportation with four wheels on the road.
船 is the general word that we call the transportation on water (river, sea..)
飛機 is the general word that we call the transportation with wings in sky.
機 means 飛機, when we say 暈機

I love how you embrace the culture! All the food looked so delicious!
I am trying ✨❤️
I can't believe you went up to Taipingshan National Forest by yourself! I went to Yilan so many times and never go to Taipingshan! I am so jealous 🥺
Next time Taipingshan is waiting for you~
Love this video! And I love that you’re not afraid to use your new language skills.
I’m trying!!! It is far from perfect but, gotta make mistakes to learn ✨
Your mandarin is actually pretty good. Don’t be so tough on yourself.
🥺❤️
You're amazing Jen. You speak Japanese and now you try to speak Mandarin to the locals whenever you can. That is the respectful thing to do but very few people will do it. Kudos to you ☺️👍👍
I am trying but it is hard haha. Maybe one day I’ll get better at speaking ~
@@LayersOfJenn Ha ha as a native speaker I've to say that you really pronounced it well(the four-tones) and I believe soon you will be able to master this language as well. You are just amazing! :)
Not only that, impressively her pronounciation, of city names especially, has the intonation of Taiwan natives.
I love Yilan ❤️ that’s where I studied uni. I usually took bus from Taipei to Yilan, every time when the bus came out of tunnel, the view of the whole Lanyang plain, with Turtle Island aside the ocean always touches my heart ❤️ the down side was the traffic jam.

And I would love to drive around on a scooter but alas, I can’t 😭 I did however get to see an awesome view of turtle island from the train ☺️
我覺得台灣跟日本泡湯最大的不同是，日本比較多露天風呂，台灣更多的是溫泉飯店的個人湯屋，那比較乾淨又隱私又能放鬆，而且有得做得很高級，應該試試那種
I agree!! I did those in japan. I can only do a lot of private baths in Japan because if my tattoos. Majority of public hot spring in japan I cannot enter 🙃
@@LayersOfJenn it doesn’t make sense... tattoo is not a fault 😤
Sadly it still carries a lot of stigma in japan. You can swim in public pools, go to a lot of hot springs, and cannot join a gym.
@@LayersOfJenn what ? Cannot join a gym ? Seriously ?! 😒
Yup. Not unless you lie about it and always cover it. I did that once 😂
Grateful for your travel vlogs and learning new things about Taiwan. Your content just keeps getting better and better!
Thank you so much 😭😭❤️❤️

Every town in Taiwan is beautiful.
And the streetfoods looking so delicious too.
Just wonderful trip.
Street food is the BEST!!

Taiwan looks beautiful.
I just have to say again how much I like the hair colour, making me jealous! This was a great video, such beautiful scenery.
Thank you!! I am really enjoying the orange hair atm ~
i envy your independence. and you integrate so well with learning the language! thanks for the upload, definitely needed a good escape :)
Haha I’m trying but everyday is still a struggle language wise!! I want to speak though if I can ✨
Thanks for always taking us along Jen!
Not being able to travel because of the pandemic, watching this heals my soul!

It makes me so happy to see you solo traveling. I want to do that too. I live in the states, in West Virginia. It's mostly mountains and I just wanna explore my state more
That wheel cake with Oreo inside LOOKS SO GOOD. Best of both (Asian and Western) worlds 😩❤️
That was my fav of the 3~
haha, so cute when you trying to pronounce 丟丟銅
Can't wait to really visit Taiwan....not just Taipei! 🥰🥰

Feel the same way!,
You noticed it!! I hope it can keep growing~ everyone that’s joining the channel so far has been super lovely 😭❤️

your filming are getting better and better. that's why I'm subscribe and can't stop watch. ❤️🤩
Great Videos Jenn! Made me want more to visit Taiwan when this pandemic over 🤞
Yayyyy I am happy to hear that~
Spectacular Jenn! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching ✨❤️
Song around the 17:14 min mark?
I think this was a beautiful trip for about $620 CAD especially for taking into account food, transportation and lodging! AMAZING :) Absolutely loooove it.
The song I used I pay for through epidemicsounds. And I also think the price isn’t TOO bad. A little more on the high end perhaps.
Wow, what a beautiful hot spring place! Have never been there, thanks for introduction!
I am happy to introduce it to you~
Hi Jenn,
My name is Jen. Thank you for giving this awesome tour of Yilan which is my hometown, and I resides in Canada now. Those place were amazingly nice which I would visit them again when I travel back home. Your video is really informative:))))
Taiwan is so beautiful
Hope to see more Taiwan travel videos
Coming soon~
It's so fun watching your vlog!! I truly appreciate your knowledge and effort in speaking Mandarin.
Awe I loved watching this!! Can’t wait to see more travel videos :)
Hopefully coming soon!
A very nice tour! I think it was a little expensive for one person, but you had no other friends that could have gone with you to share the expenses. But, with all that being said, you still had a great time in Yilan! Thanks for sharing!
I loved the economics aspects, the places to go, the food, amazing vlog! Loved ❤️
I hope to add that when I can on these solo travel videos ~
even with the tour hire thing thats still a really reasonable price! 😍 your videos are always so lovely jen 💜
Thank you always 😭❤️☺️
idkk why but your vlogs i can watch and listen all the way through without skipping throughout the video
That is music to my ears ✨❤️
I SO admire your solo traveling! And to give us such a long video of it was awesome. Thank you!
Thank you!!!! I’m hoping to plan another one soon :)
Love the video! You know Donki just opened it’s first store in Ximending. You should check it out during weekdays when things calm down a bit!
I heard!!! I’ll have to check it out one day ~
那個鳩之澤溫泉的大眾泡湯區看起來不錯，尤其適合現在的天氣，感謝妳的旅遊影片~ XD

It’s very pretty, I like the mist and rain.
I didn’t mind either because it wasn’t heavy!
GIRL!!! What a wonderful trip!!👌👏👏... Thanks for posting you made my night much better ❤️🥰

I could see it being cold and damp but, my hometown in Canada is on the coast and rains a lot in the winter too so, it’s okay for me haha

It was nice of the driver to help you film. This trip looked like so much fun! ~500 USD for three days isn't that bad, especially if the price will be cut by adding a few people to the trip.

I've been super busy with work so only just got chance to sit down and watch but omg I loved it 😍 The onsen water reminds me of the blue lagoon in Iceland, or umijigoku in Beppu!
That is a reasonable budget if you take into account many of the expenses can be cut down. It seems like a relaxing time away from work/home.
Yes exactly!! I feel like this trip is ideal for sharing if you want the private driver !

I can't wait to come back to Taiwan once it's safe to travel again, I was last there three years ago, and I'll definitely be visiting the mountain area and taking a tour - it is a little pricy just for one person but I'd probably travel with someone and after almost two years of going nowhere I think a little splurge is probably ok!
Ohhh you went there!? I looked at trying to stay in the lodge but I couldn’t figure out how to get up there!
And stay safe over there!! ❤️❤️❤️
i'm obsessed with your videos ... I miss travelling so much.
One day we will all be back to traveling safely ❤️
Loved the video!!!👍🏼😁❤️ Like that you always put in the cost of everything! To just get an idea if you ever want to compare or think about doing a solo trip yourself! Thank you!
I think others find it useful so, I am happy to add it if I can :)
Wowwwwww that’s so beautiful.......even though it’s been raining all the way....
I really enjoy your travel series video to see you introduce such many places in Taiwan, that I haven’t ever been to, even though I’m a Taiwanese.
Haha I am happy to even introduce new things to locals !!! Honestly that makes me the happiest !!
Nice trip, Jiuzhizhe is one of my favorite hot spring in the world
I wish I could have soaked in it for longer!
There's a common saying in Taiwan that goes '竹風蘭雨'. That means 'Ilan is famous for raining while Cinchu is well-known for strong winds'. Your journey started from a kind of extremity and ended in another form of extremity. In fact the winds in Penghu are stronger than those in Cinchu during the wintertime but many tourists flocked to Penghu this year when this pandemic is wreaking havoc on the whole world and traveling abroad runs the risk of getting infected and involves loads of hassle.
Hsinchu is the right spelling.
Haha when you put it like that, I guess I did go from one weather extreme to another. And Hsinchu is def windy but I think I’ll like the wind in the summer when it’s hot 🔥
Like your high quality vlog,the joezizhe hot springs aera and taipin mountain aera are amazing area, welcome to Taiwan
Happy to be here :)
Everything about this vlog was beautiful! I really love your hair so much! I am also so amazed and admire at how comfortable and willing you are to learn and go to new places on your own.
Can't believe you're already able to communicate in Chinese! That is so cool considering how short of a time you've been learning. Way to go👍 Your accent is quite good too, comparing to many other foreigners.
I am trying!! I’m just basic level~
拍得越來越有味道!很棒的精緻旅遊!
謝謝☺️❤️
Wow wow wow,love the hair color hair cut and the Mary tool. Gorgeous
Your videos are so enjoyable to watch , love night markets and so cool you are learning Chinese , not easy though :)
Definitely not easy haha but I want to try~
hey Jen, keep exploring, if you ever make it to Chaozhou Township, a major southern Pingtung transition to north/south, you can hit me up. And I can give you a quick tour. enjoy.
I haven’t been watching youtube that much lately, but I just started again and came back to all your wonderful videos, your voice always relaxes me and it is so fun to watch everything 🥰
Thank you for that because I often get criticism on my voice.
@@LayersOfJenn I can’t believe that! 😱
What a wonderful place and trip for yourself ☺️ Thanks for sharing! Also, your orange hair suits you as if it is your natural colour 😍
My great grandfather was a ginger!! Too bad I didn’t get it 😭
Can't wait to visit Taiwan and follow all your videos on what to do whilst there x
Love it! I kinda miss my hometown cause I am in Australia now. In summer time, there are so many fun things to do as well like jumping from the top of waterfall & having a good bbq time.😉
Sounds like I’ll have to go back in the summer ~
This is very informational. Im going to yilan next week and this video helps me a lot! Thank youuu ♥️♥️
I love your videos, thank u for introduce my country. wish u have a really good time there. Also, pls visit south Taiwan, east Taiwan, and the islands around Taiwan. I cannot wait to watch the videos of these few areas
I am hoping to make it to all those areas
You could take bus to Yilan also is convenient. The tour is a little expensive. You could find a taxi for 8 hours is much cheaper.
Probably but I needed a tour guide that speaks English! The easiest way for me to find was online ~ maybe others going can find a cheaper option 🙏🏻
For some reason I just got notified about this video but I loved it! Your editing is so good and you’re one of the few TH-camrs I can watch without getting motion sick. Thank you for your stabilization. 😂
Haha I try to keep as smooth as possible but it’s not always easy ! And thank you for watching ❤️
omggg I love your Taiwan solo adventures so much I'm going to use them all as inspiration to plan my next trip to Taiwan 😍💕
Please do!! That’s what I’m hoping these videos will provide to people :)
北台灣有兩個地方很值得去，滿月園和靈鳩山
Don't know why.
I nearly been to yi lan every year and it looks more fun when i see your video from different angle.
Thanks for sharing
It could also be because everything is so new to me so, I see Yilan a bit differently than perhaps you do~ 😁
@@LayersOfJenn can't wait too see more your trip videos.
Wow you made me want to visit the hot spring!
Yay!!
AWESOME Video! Great content with many cut scenes that make us feel we're actually traveling with... - very informative even for a fellow Taiwan resident. Blessings & Please STAY SAFE!
I used to be a soldier in Yilan. I lived there for 2 years. Yilan is a beautiful place to visit. I enjoy this awesome video you make. C'est bon. 非常謝謝你. Thank you a lot. Merci beaucoup.
Would be a beautiful area to live with friendly people I’m sure!
@@LayersOfJenn
True.
Very relaxing video. Thx for the good content and quality !!
Thank you for watching :)
Taking solo trips now has all the benefits of doing it normally, but with the extra benefit of much smaller crowds so you have more time to actually see the sights and speak with shopkeepers, knowing you're helping to keep them in business until we are able to safely open sites in the usual way.
Exactly!! That and I can go at my own pace and do whatever I like too. Also less crowds on the weekdays (when I go!)
What beautiful trip! Even in the rain it’s so magical! Jen you are inspiring me to go out and travel by myself! Thank you! 👍🏼♥️👍🏼♥️👍🏼♥️
