Boy I was cursing my decision with every step I took. Got hit by altitude sickness around 1km from the peak and had to practically crawl to the top.

Each episode I am constantly smiling throughout - Paddy mate you're a star and so is everyone else who is part of the channel. Its amazing the channel hasn't yet reached millions of views but I guess this is a hidden gem that I'm now proud to be a part of by subscribing. I look forward to travelling again in the future when we can and Taiwan, you're beautiful too - see you in the future! Love from Manchester, England!

Or maybe saw that spot you guys went to for some peace and quiet. Shifen was even worse. The train to the old street was like riding a train in India.

      @@TheBudgeteers I hope you never stop travelling (within reason). Can't wait until i can go to all of these places. Taiwan looks absolutely amazing. I love that going to the police lead you to a tea plantation and amazing views :D Keep up the good work Paddy (and Thijs and Lina)!

    That's a popiah (that's what we call it in Singapore in the Hokkien dialect and Taiwan should be calling it the same thing too). The "skin" (薄餅皮) is a soft, thin paper-like crepe or pancake made from wheat flour.

    Great video! Really shows what backpacking's like rather than just throwing some random tourist sites.
    About the tea part, high quility tea can cost more than 300 us dollars for 600 grams, depends on the altitude and technique they plant it.
    Not saying that you can definitely not afford it, just most people wouldn't spend so much on a small bag of tea and maybe they were affraid you might buy something you don't really need only for returning their hospitality. Anyway hope you guys didn't feel offended.
