I went there twice, it was such an easy city to travel and the food was good too. Watching your video makes me miss it there.
yeah the food is great, I need to go back and see more of the island
Couldn't agree more
@@DerWanderer88 glad you agree
The food gets worse the longer you live here. 4 years in and it's rough
@@cooliipie whoops!
Giving this video a LIKE and a COMMENT really helps me (給這個影片按讚和留言對我很有幫助)
Hello👋Welcome to Taiwan!!
thank you! welcome to my channel :) @@sdarkao9297
The price blows my mind when you consider a cup of Starbucks coffee with tax is approaching $5 USD and if U get *ANYTHING* on the side, a small piece of sugary cake or whatnot, you can EASILY spend $10 or more. It's the same with DD/McDonald or any fast joints. Here you get a FULL breakfast/Lunch - AND much healthier. NO CONTEST.
I know, it is crazy isn't it. It shows how much it is all messed up.
Have always wanted to check out Taipei, I have a friend who lives there and plans to visit him sometime next year.. this video is very informative. Thank you Joe
you should Vu, I really really like it there and the food is wonderful
Great food and sites in Taipei. Thanks for showing us around Joe 👍
the food is so good! I really enjoyed it there actually. it seems very liveable too actually
Nah, Madeira is better Joe.@@hungrytoexplore
嗨嗨～你好呀！我是新訂閱戶，歡迎您來到台灣，願台灣帶給你充滿驚奇和喜樂❤️🎉🇹🇼
Thank you! Welcome to the channel, I’m happy to have you here
Even my China customer thinks Taiwan is way similar to Janan, except language. We always welcome visitors, no matter where they from.
I understand, it is an amazing place. I love it already
Ur video is great,especially it have Chinese caption ,hope u get a lot like from Taiwanese,
Welcome to Taiwan, and have a nice travel here😊.
Thank you Flora, I’m happy you enjoyed. I really really enjoyed my first day in Taipei. In the next videos I’ll explore more of the food.
welcome to Taiwan 🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼☺️☺️☺️💖💖💖
Thank you so much for the welcome
Welcome to the beautiful country of Taiwan!! 🫶🇹🇼👍
There is a lot of delicious food here that is worth trying.I hope you have a wonderful week!!
Thank you for the warm welcome to Taiwan! I can't wait to eat all amazing food. Welcome to the channel.
Beautiful mate. I think you was here for the amazing weather we had last week. Now it has quickly changed again to rainy and cloud, Taiwan style 😂
Have an amazing stay!
haha reminds me of the island that I come from! Taiwan is an awesome place. You are lucky to live there.
Welcome to Taiwan ，enjoy❤️👍😎
Thank you! 😃
Taipei’s newly reopened Nanmen Market is a must-visit and must-eat.
Sounds like I should check that out
@@hungrytoexplore That’s what I was suggesting. Taipei has much more than just street food stalls and night markets. However, I haven’t seen any foreigners checked out that 100-year old market yet. It’s a Chinese/Taiwanese gourmet food department store (food court included) in a modern building where the locals will buy and eat. Address
No.8, Sec. 1, Roosevelt Rd., Zhongzheng Dist, C.K.S. Memorial Hall MRT station exit 2, Zhongzheng District, Taipei 100 Taiwan
you are a star! thank you :) @@yuan-linghuang1633
Welcome to Taiwan! There’s lots to explore! Wish you have a great stay here. Have fun!
Thank you for the kind words! I'm really looking forward to experiencing all that Taiwan has to offer - especially the food
☺ thank you Joe for bringing mr such a relaxing Saturday morning
My absolute pleasure, I am glad you enjoyed it. I hope you like the content on the channel
You went to two of my favorite places, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial and Longshan Temple.
They are awesome aren’t they! I couldn’t believe how big and vast the memorial was
@@hungrytoexplore Yes, both awesome for sure!
🇹🇼 #Taiwan *Touch* *Your* *Heart* ！
🤗 ♥️ 😊
even in the first video yes!
Welcome to Taiwan
I subscribed to this channel 👍
Thank you for subscribing to my channel! I appreciate your support and I hope you enjoy the content about Taiwan.
The two ladies you met in the dumpling restaurant are also tourists. 😅. They are from Japan. They are happy about your instruction of the dippings. 😊
Hahaha yes! It was a funny scene, I’m glad I put it in the video
The weather looked so nice! You are very lucky because Taipei is normally quite cloudy or rainy!
Haha it was rainy too don’t worry. I’m used to that being British
Nice video, enjoy your stay here. If you want to see a truly stunning temple, check out Songshan Fengtian Gong, prettiest in Taipei. Bishan Temple in Neihu is also pretty stunning.
Thank you and welcome to the channel, I hope you enjoy the content, I’ll definitely check those out, thanks for the tips
Love your videos, Joe!
I appreciate that a lot, thank you
Hey Joe, the green colour of the scallops dumpling is from the addition of spinach.
Are you sure?
In fact,
that green dumpling wrapper gets its color from spinach. 😊
oh... that would make sense haha
Looks amazing!
Oh yeah it was a great first day and the food is top notch
welcome to the country, Taiwan

I always look forward to watching your travel vlog - your adventures are so inspiring. Your positive energy is infectious! Just curious, have you heard about the new v4 Bento Bag and the Ikigai Backpack by NomadLane? They could be great additions to your travel gear.

You do man! The food is right up there
You really know how to enjoy the sauce and how to make the food more flavorful

希望您在台其間有更多好的体驗
Thank you for your kind words! Welcome to the channel
這間水餃店，很強！特別是干貝波菜口味的。驚訝你居然選擇它！之前住那附近，很懷念…
So tasty, isn't it! I am very happy that I found it
welcome toTaiwan,I like you video▶️😃👍❤️◀️
Awesome! Thank you! Welcome to the channel
welcome to Taiwan
thank you :) I love it here
Those two ladies at the condiment stand in the dumpling restaurant are Japanese tourists
hahah I know! I didn;t think they were Taiwanese, but I thought maybe they knew more about it than me haha
Welcome,you can come to our New Taipei City!
Thank you, welcome to the channel :)
Welcome to Taiwan 🎉🎉
Thanks so much! Welcome to my channel :)

4:17 them Japanese ladies were so affected by your charm #giggles #giggles JoeBoy :)
hahaha what can I say...
Welcome to Taiwan
I appreciate your comment to welcome me, thank you
歡迎來台灣玩
謝謝
Welcome to Taiwan!
Thank you, welcome to my channel
Hi, I am going there in April. How long did it take you to visit the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall and the Longshan temple? Love the food, by the way.
ooo good question. Chiang Kai Shek Memorial is huge and you do want to spend some time taking the atmosphere in, maybe an hour just walking around and soaking up the atmosphere. The temple is also cool, but 20 mins is probably enough, again, I like to just sit and take in the atmosphere of these places. Food is amazing in Taiwan
@@hungrytoexplore thanks for answering. I will start watching your other Taipei video's too. Don't want to miss out on the food part 😋
歡迎來台灣🎉
Thank you! Welcome to my channel
The outside of a gua bao with the pork belly, if I am not wrong, is made of wheat flour, but being gluten intolerant, I really hope they’ll make it out of rice flour too! 😅😂❤
you are right... that was pretty stupid of me. Shows what I know doesn't it. but that is the purpose of travel and exploring new cultures. You learn new things. It seems it is possible to make your own gluten free ones though, I found some recipes online when looking.
Mate get me one of those burgers asap
we should get a food trip there together1
It may not look it on the surface (at least in the North) but Taiwanese people’s mindset, values and way of life is much closer to Japan than you’d expect (tho makes sense with our history).
oh I definitely see that! I really like it in Taiwan and could easily see myself living there.
水餃一個7元台幣，不是美元喔
😍😍😍歡迎你來台灣
感謝你介紹台灣❤
Oh is that in the captions?
welcome !
thank you :)
All temple, you must enter from right door and exit the left door.
I think I got that right! I never knew that though, thanks for letting me know
Yahoooooo ❤
Yabba dabba dooooo
Hi ...just wanted to ask influenza outbreak in China...do we need to worry if travelling to taiwan. Thanks
To be honest, until I read your post I hadn’t heard about it. I wouldn’t worry at this stage but we all need to make our own decisions with these things.
Welcome to Taiwan.^^
Thanks! 😃 welcome to my channel
@@hungrytoexplore I hope it can leave you with good memories
it already has :) @@taiwan2709
歡迎來台灣旅遊👍🎉❤
Thank you! I’m delighted to be here
Judging by your accent, you're from UK right？Welcome to Taiwan.👍Chili oil ~ just a little bit is enough, you dipped it in too much😚 (you may not be used to too much chili oil)
Haha what gave it away? I am British. Thank you and welcome to my channel. I love spicy food, I came to Taiwan from months and months in Thailand. I’m used to spicy don’t worry. Often the spice is not enough for me haha
在台灣就叫台式漢堡
Yes! It’s SO delicious
Gua bao ❤️🇹🇼
so good!!
Welcome to Taiwan!!! Where are you from?
Thank you! You can’t tell by my accent? 😂. I’m British
I understand that Taiwan's security is unstable because of its relations with China. So I thought Taiwan would be dangerous, and my only travel destinations in Asia were JAPAN🇯🇵 & KOREA🇰🇷. But watching your video made me see Taiwan again. I think it also feels like Vietnam and Thailand!
Let’s put it this way, I don’t feel in danger at all. It’s safe. Completely so and incredibly friendly with wonderful people. If you can visit, you should :)
@@hungrytoexplore Surprised at Taiwan's safety, surprised at your quick response!
@@user-dv5if1hm2w sometimes I happen to just be checking :)
歡迎:3
Thank you for your warm welcome! I'm excited to have you here.
Sorry my bad, you are correct, it's algae not spinach that make the dumpling green ;)
Oh! We found agreement haha. It was really tasty though, you should try it
那個卦包應該是60元
😅😅😅
蘆洲有個混蛋店老板賣104元一個。😅
British accent? Sounds gentle.
Was it that obvious that I’m British haha?
It's first time I heard Taiwan is more like China & South Korea not China & Japan. Interesting!
Haha you can come here for unique observations like that 😂. I hope you enjoy my content
顾的，顾的，台湾是一个自由国家，我爱台湾，台湾美食好棒棒，流量密码。
Thank you for your love and support! Taiwan is truly a beautiful country with amazing food.
Funny you are asking Japanese tourists about those condiments!
hahaha I know, but maybe they were more experienced than me haha
It is not cheap anymore
oh really?
You were asking Japanese about those sauce😂
Hahaha I know! Have to find some excuse to talk to a pretty lady don’t I, kidding! I thought maybe they knew more than me haha
中文字幕是台幣，不是美元😅
😅😅😅😅😅
又到了我最喜欢的洋带人来台湾发油管，湾友来互动嗯蹭环节
I really appreciate your kind words and support! It means a lot to me that you enjoy my videos.
你知不知道Chiang Kai-shek 是台灣版希特勒?
he certainly was not. He was not perfect, he had to deal with many bad situations. It was incredibly complex for him. Please be mature if you want to comment on the channel
你少在那裏胡說八道，丟盡台灣人的臉！
Welcome to Taiwan province of China❤
not yet brother!
@@hungrytoexplore Do you know 🇹🇼 is the Chinese national flag used before 1949?
@@user-pr6hx6qu8x 反正中國簽證到不了台灣。
Chinese needs a visa to visit Taiwan, just like visiting Japan or Korea. Taiwan is Not a province of China at all.
@@user-pr6hx6qu8x
That flag was in Taiwan in 1930s.
ROC had a Chinese consulate in Taihoku/Taipei. This part of history is hidden by both CCP and KMT.
Most Taiwanese don’t like it, but they try to live with it because they don’t want to provoke China. China says it would attack Taiwan if the flag changed.
Republic of China 中華民國 ，Taiwan just province
I’m just here to eat brother!
欢迎来到中国台湾
Thanks I’m happy to be in Taiwan, Taiwan
Taiwan is Taiwan, not China!
Please don’t spread China’s United Front propaganda!
不是中國
Asia:
for traveling ✅
for living ❌
Why do you say that? I could definitely see myself living in Asia one day
@@hungrytoexploreHmm, really ? do it and live there the rest of your life. Remember to give up your UK citizenship forever and don't regret the choice you make 😂
@@kita139 not sure that answers the question. I do not need to give up UK citizenship to live in many parts of Asia. That would be absurd. Also, why would it need to be the rest of my life? I currently do not reside in the UK and it will not be forever, but I am happy. I will not reside in the UK for the long term, by choice and I am very happy with that.
@@hungrytoexploreWhen I'm talking about "living", it means a whole life not for a period. You don't dare to give up your UK citizenship forever and live permanently in Asia cuz you are smart enough to understand how valuable, comfortable, secure and powerful to hold the passport of UK rather than the passport of an Asian country. It is similar to many cases I knew before, some Aussie traveled to Asia and were very excited to live there for a long time (even >10 years) then returned to Australia for retirement because of the excellent social security and medical care, clean environment....😂
Your compliments are just to satisfy more viewers of your channel but not for reality. Being born and raised in developed western countries such as UK, USA, Canada, Australia...is "A Great Blessing of God". 😏
