    Hi lovely Josie~ Welcome to Taiwan! The first time I followed your channel was when I saw a vlog you shot in Shanghai. Since then, I have watched every video in Beijing, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. Really like you and Michael’s conversations and vibes. You are my favorite travel TH-camr.------From a Taiwanese(Taipei) living in Beijing!

      Thank you so much!!! So so happy to hear you love my videos, and that you’ve been watching my video!! How awesome. Thank you so much. I’ll be honest and say most of my videos from Taiwan didn’t work out 😔 (my fault for not planning a lot of things, haha so there’s less videos from Taiwan than I wanted) but good news is there’s a reason to come back! Haha.
      Thank you for watching, love to have you in my online community 🫶🏻😁😁

    Try eating the pineapple bun with butter immediately with the butter still cold and the bun hot. That's the whole point of pineapple bun with butter - crispy and hot on the outside and cold on the inside. it's the contrast of texture and temperature that makes it special. don't let the butter melt. that's how it's eaten in Hong Kong (used to have it a lot but I got too chubby I have to lose the butter 😅) A lot of snacks are great in the night market. taiwanese pork sausages, sweet potato balls, sweet desert soup with taro balls and grass jelly, stinky tofu...

    When you started your morning off with a good cong you bing breakfast - thats how I knew your day was going to be awesome from then forward. ❤🇹🇼 Every time I am in Taiwan it is tradition to hit up as many small coffee shops as I can and load up on the individual pour-over coffee packets especially if they package their own brand/roasts. Nice latte art as well.... done and done! The best part about the pineapple buns is when the butter is still a bit soft and not completely melted - like the bun and a big 'ol pat of butter in one bite is heaven.

    Brown sugar bubble tea is not a western thing. But more like a modern thing. You will find it in modern bubble tea shops or chained stores. The one you went to is a traditional mom and pop shop that they sell blended juices. Bubble tea is not their specialty, hence no brown sugar. ❤

    Josie, 😄haven't you noticed that the characters and languages in Taiwan, as well as the signs, advertising texts, and writing fonts on the streets, are all in Chinese, just like the ones you've been to Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Macau. Do you feel curious? The reason is that the residents of Taiwan and China are both Chinese, and their ethnic origins are the same. Taiwan is a state(area) of China, but it is managed by different parties. China is managed by the CPC, and Taiwan is managed by the Kuomintang and the Democratic Progressive Party, so there are political and military differences. But the undeniable fact is that Taiwan has not yet fully belonged to China.
    The full name of Taiwan is the Republic of China(Chinese pronunciation:zhong hua min guo), and the full name of China is the People's Republic of China(Chinese pronunciation:zhong hua ren min gong he guo), both of which are abbreviated as China(Chinese pronunciation:zhong guo).
    Josie,难道你没有发现吗,台湾的文字和语言,街道上的招牌、广告文字、书写的字体,都和你去过的北京、上海、香港、澳门一样,都是中文。你会不会感到好奇? 原因就是:台湾和中国的居民,都是中国人,人种根源是相同的。台湾是中国的一个州,但是由不同的党派管理,中国是由中国共产党管理,台湾是由国民党和民进党管理,所以才会有政治和军事上的分歧,至今。但不可否认的事实是,台湾至今没有完全归属于中国。台湾的全名叫【中华民国】,中国的全名叫【中华人民共和国】,这两者都简称【中国】。中国大陆不允许台湾独立,台湾就是由中国大陆管辖的一个省,或者州。就如同美国本土与阿拉斯加州的关系一样。
    Josie,難道你沒有發現嗎,臺灣的文字和語言,街道上的招牌、廣告文字、書寫的字體,都和你去過的北京、上海、香港、澳門一樣,都是漢字。你會不會感到惊讶? 原因就是:臺灣和中國的居民,都是中國人,人種根源是相同的。 臺灣是屬於中國的一個省,但是由不同的黨派管理,中國是由中國共產黨管理,臺灣是由國民黨和民進黨管理,所以才會有政治和軍事上的分歧,直到今天。 但不可否認的事實是,臺灣至今沒有完全歸屬於中國大陸。 臺灣的全名叫【中華民國】,中國大陸的全名叫【中華人民共和國】,這兩者都簡稱【中國】。中國大陸不允許台灣獨立,在大陸對外的宣傳中,台灣就是由中國大陸管轄的一個省。就如同美國本土與阿拉斯加州的關係一樣。
