Is this the Hsinta Power Plant?

Ximending is incredibly dirty, and homeless people tend to gather there in groups.

You're amazing at taking photos!!!!!

It's too dilapidated, with far too many safety hazards.

Actually, starting this year, you do! A new law just came into effect!

Uh, where in Taiwan did you take these photos? They look a bit strange.

Oh! So that's how it is.

Seriously, whatever you do, don't come. Promise me.

Freedom of belief isn't the same as superstition, and it's even further removed from being 'feudal.' In Taiwan, especially in northern cities, families generally don't pressure those in their 30s and 40s about marriage. Personal wishes regarding work, marriage, and having children are largely respected.

So true! Wonderful memories from a trip ten years ago motivated me to visit again. I didn't realize how much the world had changed, while Taiwan itself hasn't changed much.

Welcome!

The Jadeite Cabbage is stunning, it’s such a shame I missed it.

How good is it? Can you tell us more?

The attractions are quite spread out.

This happened when I was a kid. I've been back to Tainan since, and nothing similar ever occurred. Plus, I could never find that specific motel again, no matter how I searched. I even asked my parents, but they have no recollection of me ever staying at a motel. It just came to mind today while I was chatting in my dorm, so I decided to jot it down.

Tainan, Kenting.

Tainan can be particularly tricky for non-locals, especially if you don't have a scooter.

In Taoyuan, buses are basically either 'here' or 'not here.' Taking a bus is a gamble; it might say 3 minutes away, and the next second it'll jump to an hour!
