Agree! I’ve been to Taiwan twice this year and I am planning to go there again by early 2024. Taiwan might be a so-so for other people but for me it’s been absolutely amazing!

Your heartfelt monologue about your parents and your reflection on Taiwan’s and your own family history brought tears to my eyes. Wasn’t expecting this watching about budget travel in Taipei. Makes me miss home. I’m also a Taiwanese immigrant to the US

Last time I've been to Taipei was almost a decade ago. But I'm going back to visit in January 2024! This time, I'm doing some research and came across this video, which definitely sparked ideas as I build my itinerary because it's practical, informative, and no nonsense.

My wife and I just got back from Taipei. Her family is from Taiwan also. The food was so good! I was worried that you guys weren’t going to try 臭豆腐 (Chòu dòufu) lol. I had both the fried version and the soup version with blood cake and the the soup version in my opinion was so much tastier. Awesome video guys, made me miss Taiwan!

This is the best vlog in a long time, if not the best I've seen from you two. Funny, moving, informative, so satisfying (food market lover here), and also the most inspirational one yet. I almost cried when you said your goal was to give away a trip because all you want is to inspire people to travel. Please know that you have done far more for us already. Your past Hawaii vlogs are a reason why my trip went smooth-sailing this past summer. Then your credit card churning videos made my trip to Bali possible this past February, meaning just 8 months after I returned from Hawaii. I am already planning my next trip and I am again taking notes from your videos. You two are not just inspiring us to travel. You're literally making our travel dreams come true. I am subscribed, I love you both, and I am super grateful for all you continue to do :)

I just got back home from Taiwan and the separation anxiety is kicking so bad. Taiwan is so beautiful. The people there are so warm and very helpful despite the language barrier. I love that elderly people are still accepted for work with no judgement. The transporation system was a breeze! So clean and safe. I fell in love with Taiwan and I'm coming back soon.🥹🥹🥹 Also, just like you, I felt so emotional the moment we got at Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall. The place was so solemn and full of stories in silence. My favorite so far.

Glad you got out of the city. Very nice video. I’ve never considered Taipei before, but after seeing your video I have added to my list to visit. Thank you for showing us around.

Beautiful vlog, bought back memories of my trips there in the past.

Really appreciate how you two travel. Doing some research for my upcoming trip to Taiwan. Taking my family to visit family but it is only my third visit, including being born there. Lisa's experience resonates with me. I am Taiwanese-American but my parent from Taiwan has passed. Most of my knowledge of Taiwan is academic. This trip is for a significant birthday and feeling all the emotions. Thanks for sharing your experience and itinerary!

Not sure if anyone has explained the wooden slices in the temple, but it’s called “Bua Buai” in taiwanese. Basically it is to ask the deity a question and depending on how the faces of the wooden pieces land, it will have a yes/no/unknown answer. It is also used to communicate with the spiritual realm. So to get into it deeper, a “yes” or “ji buai” is when the one of the two piece has one face up and the other piece is the opposite face. A “no” or “bo buai” is both sides are the same. And unknown is when one lands in a weird position like up right on the wedge. Hope that helps haha. Also the custard cake thing is “Che lun bing” or wheel cake. 🙂 there’s a meaning behind the cake as well but I can’t think of it at the top of my head at the moment. 😄

We have enjoyed your adventures so so very much. Definitely our favorite Vlogers. Watched them ALL. True story. In September we are also walking the Camino (Lisban to Santiago) mostly for personal self reflection. Both of your walks have been an amazing, welcome and insightful look at the road ahead. I was surprised no one mentioned Will Arnett in the Q&A "look alike / remind me of " question. Ok, maybe not twins but, that enjoyable quirkiness all the same. Thanks again! A real pleasure to enjoy the adventures and all the skills / work you both put into your videos! Grateful. Who's vlogs do you follow? We know a couple as there have been some crossed vlogs we watched. Take care and all our best, Mike and Betty, Vancouver Canada.

Your travel advice is always so valuable! Speaking of travel gear, have you heard about the new V4 of the Bento Bag from Nomad Lane? It's making waves in the travel community, and I thought you might find it interesting for your future trips.

Just WOW! AMAZING!!!

OMG this video was almost an hour but it never got boring or I never even thought of skipping some parts bec of how enjoyable you both were!

Great video guys. Enjoyed it. We will be in Taipei in just over a month for a few days on our way to Europe.

Thank you so much for this video. Our family moved to Canada when we were young, and we are planning a trip to Taiwan this fall. I have never been to the lantern town outside of Taipei---so thank you for sharing this part of the trip for us. We have also never climbed the mountain to get the city view. We can't wait to visit again!!

watched the whole video. You did miss yong kang street with some cool eateries and shop. I didnt go to shifen and that looked good. Great video.

Excellent video. Brought back a LOT of memories for me and also helped me add to my list for when I am back there in October to Taichung and Taipei. Taipei is the best. My only problem with your video is that it could easily be 3x longer. Enjoyed every minute. 😎🇹🇼 Need more Taiwan! I got super emotional at 24 mins in - as you talked about your mom and her leaving Taiwan - and just realizing that as amazing as these places are there is such a rich history that we either never hear about or like you mention - just don't think to ask about.

Maokong Gondola is another “must do” in TPE (along its shaved ice as a treat on a hot day)

How come did i feel so comfortable watching the English-speaking Vlogger to introduce Taibei! I kept taking down lots of notes of the restaurants and the name of the delicious foods ! I ama Canadian-chinese while my son was totally Canadian, a western-style foods lover. So i did lots of research to mingle with our tastes buds to cater to both of us for the trip to Taiwan next March.

Great video! Taiwanese here (but living in California for the past 20+ years). You hit all the great and fun spots that I would also hit whenever I go home. I was surprised that Lisa had never tried the "car wheel" cakes though. Maybe you have never lived in Taiwan for an extended period of time. They are literally everywhere including at night markets. Those and the "pepper buns" are two of the things I miss most and my "must-eat" items whenever I go home to visit. Watching you enjoy the food made me want to go back soon; can't wait!

Good video! I came to the US at 3 years old. So not a lot of memories, but good memories with my grandparents. Always cherish the visits as I get older. I’m with Lisa in that there was something missing growing up. You packed a lot into 3.75 days… Jiufen, Shifen, lighting the sky lanterns all awesome activities. Hopefully this is just a part of a longer Asia adventure. It takes me a week to adjust to the time difference, so a minimum of two weeks is my rule. Keep up the great videos.
