Hope you enjoyed this series everyone! Thanks again to Alex for joining us in Juifen. If you want to learn way more about Taiwan from Alex, sub to his channel 'Vaan's World' - th-cam.com/channels/DeLL0EWq_lU4Ja-hBHsfuQ.html
hello,,, I am pretty curious the other mountain that you went after the teapot mountain. I have been to the teapot mountain but I did not go to the mountain after teapot mountain. may I get the information like the name of the mountain?Thank you :)
It truly is. I think Paddy is spot on with constantly in amazement stating that you would not expect this to be Taiwan. It is a hidden gem because not many people have any idea what Taiwan looks like.
Hi guys...i am Alex mom. Really terrific video and i like how you 3 get on together. I am dutch and love the accents. Keep it up and stay safe. Am subscribing. Hou je tai
So glad that you guys enjoy your trip in Taiwan ! The way you hitchhike,the way you travel are amazing , thats the best In-depth travel ~ You do really made a great video to promote my home country, Thanks a million !
Omg the last view of the syue mountain is super gorgeous man .Seriously I love Taiwan and been there twice .Hope to have chance to go back again soon in future.
20:07 "Pour him a glass of water. No, pour him a glass of water first. They will feel (the tea) sweet" 27:22 "You speak Chinese good"(He thought you were speaking Chinese) 34:56 "Not breath enough"
@@yilin888 Can agree. I was invited to climb Xueshan by my manager from my old workplace. Thought it was just a good ol hike (i was 100kg and fat at the time). 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.
Love the Taiwan series, it looks amazing and somewhere I hadn’t even considered travelling. I am now thinking of changing my plans to (solo) travel to Taiwan instead of Cambodia and Myanmar 🤔 Would love to know your opinion on whether it would be worth it 😊
Omg are you kidding me w the tea plantation? One of a kind experience wow. Had flashback to when you sleep at the police station in central America I think? I'm gunna check in at the local police station next time I'm in a jam and looking for some adventure! Lol
A great 4th episode on Taiwan off the beaten track! Accolades to Paddy Doyle are in order for cleverly creating the enticing, beautiful cinematography of the mini series! 👏👏👏
For me, the Budgeteers is the best TH-cam channel. I only discovered The Budgeteers 3 weeks ago and I have already watched every episode and series. 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!
Just finished a long hard day of picking strawberries for my 88 days in Australia and this has given some life back into me! Loved the whole series from start to finish!
Thanks Mark! Yeah Paddy has travelled and done a lot since Taiwan. You can tell he has major vlogging talent. Awesome you came and watched this series at the Budgeteers 🤘 -Thys
17:38 whats up with the Damiaan's rear end on screen? naughty Paddy LOL I have new respect for Paddy to waiting for Damiaan, I won't blame my friend, in fact I will urged them to go without me. Admire Damiaan strength to climb the mountain in that condition. Enjoy the new chemistry between you two, hope to see more of Damiaan!
@@TheBudgeteers Wow... today was a great day for commenting. Both you and KombiLife replied to me and he also Highlighted my comment. I can't wait for your next group adventure in some exotic land!!!

Wow this series really gave me a new perspective on Taiwan, you never really hear a lot about it outside of Taipei Really enjoyed this, the nature looks incredible 😊
I don't have the strength going up the mountain like you guys did, yet there are more then plenty of natural adventures in Taiwan awaits every nature lovers, people from everywhere around the globe are welcome to join us~
@@TheBudgeteers, "kway tio so si boh?" is Hokkien (a Chinese dialect very prevalent in Taiwan) for "Have you seen the key?". I infer that she might have left her key somewhere at home since she was asking someone to look for her keys from her mobile on that hill.
Thanks for another great series looking forward to the next one! Hope Damien feels better...hope you all had enough water to drink that might of been some of his sickness to....
Great series Paddy. Damian is a cool guy to travel with. I miss Thijs and Lina very much, but hopefully they are saving up for the next mega trip. Happy New Year to the Budgeteers.
@@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)!
Hi, just wanted to sy I've only discovered the. Channel when looking for some morocco advice and saw Thijs and Damiaan's great mini series and I've been hooked since. I'm watching in reverse order haha but absolutely loving it. You guys are doing an amazing job please keep those videod coming 😁
I was in Taiwan back in September and climbed teapot mountain and i was the only one! I actually probably would have preferred seeing a few other people cause i was a lil nervous about the heights hahahah
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.
Yeah thats right. Totally true. But Damian knows he gets headaches easily since he's done big treks like this before, so he's no beginner. Nevertheless its best to be aware of altitude sickness because its seriously dangerous.
Totally random question but I've noticed the Union Flag next to Paddy's name is the version without the cross of St Patrick? I'm guessing that's some kind of reference to Paddy having Irish family? Maybe reading too much into that idk
I made this comment when you were in Mexico but my record is 10 days waiting for a ride, in Charters Towers in the Queensland desert, Australia. On day 10 I got a ride to Prairie which was only 90ks away. I ended up jumping a goods train and spending 27hrs to Mt Isa. There is a long story but you'll have to read the book
@@TheBudgeteers Back then I travelled with a dog so had no choice. If your interested in reading about my life I'd be happy to e.mail you a copy of manuscript. It's called "Sex, Drugs and the Long Black River" It's about my youth 15- mid 20s hitchhiking around Australia on a non stop pub crawl
Hey Kara and Nate - look someone else made an incredible documentary and didn't feel the need to suck money from their subs! So excited to follow the Budgeteer's adventures :)
Ach...heel lief van je. So you can speak dutch???? You are a very handsome young man. Happy that you and Alex are friends. If you are ever in my area of canada you will be so welcome in my home. Take care, have fun but be safe out there!!!! Dag jonge!
I did not enjoy Jiufen at all. I went on a Saturday evening. I literally could not even get my arms up because it was crazy filled with tourists, I think more than what you guys had in this video lol. I wish I had gone on a weekday maybe. 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. I’m sure Juifen and Shifen are nice, just maybe go to it on weekday or something.
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.

Since series one, I’ve always been blown away by the kindness of strangers that you guys encounter. The world really can be a beautiful place.
It really is a Beautiful place. Get out there 💜
Lucky for you the police in Taiwan are giving human beings.
Travel for yourself! :) i went last year too, and you really meet just awesome People.
It gives you so much hope and joy in your heart
A true adventure with friendship in a truly beautiful island country of Taiwan.
Bravo! Budgeteers!
Bravo!!
Thanks Irene 💜✌💜
Taiwan is so beautiful
Incredibly beautiful actually 💜✌💜
It truly is. I think Paddy is spot on with constantly in amazement stating that you would not expect this to be Taiwan. It is a hidden gem because not many people have any idea what Taiwan looks like.
"Damien just said screw it and bought us some beers", what a legend, my kind of guy.
Haha right? 😆

It’s Taiwan ROC
Omg the last view of the syue mountain is super gorgeous man .Seriously I love Taiwan and been there twice .Hope to have chance to go back again soon in future.

It’s amazing you climbed up to the second high mountain of Taiwan, great job!
It was harder than it looked 😆
Most people live in Taiwan have never been there in their whole life. Really appreciate your adventure spirit.
The highest mountain in Taiwan is actually easier.
Yes. It’s definitely hard.

Guys its again a great pleasure to watch your videos! Taiwan is for sure now on my travelbucketlist...
Thanks for watching and for joining the crew 😍😍😍
The peanut ice cream thingy is my favorite. Wasn't expecting you two's reaction at all.
Love the Taiwan series, it looks amazing and somewhere I hadn’t even considered travelling.
I am now thinking of changing my plans to (solo) travel to Taiwan instead of Cambodia and Myanmar 🤔
Would love to know your opinion on whether it would be worth it 😊
I live in Thailand so I've been to Cambodia and Myanmar several times. Taiwan is like nothing other. I highly highly recommend it.
Omg are you kidding me w the tea plantation? One of a kind experience wow.

Haha exactly Craig, just get out there and enjoy it 💜✌💜
Awesome video. Taiwan is very beautiful. Love from Pakistan.

Great hike but altitude sickness is dangerous
Safer for Damian to head down immediately
Yeah thats right. Totally true.
But Damian knows he gets headaches easily since he's done big treks like this before, so he's no beginner. Nevertheless its best to be aware of altitude sickness because its seriously dangerous.
Any chance u still remember the name of that tea houses （or air bnb）？hope i can stat there for a nite and that would be awesome.
