Being Belgian Living In Taiwan, I Discovered Many New And Special Things, So I Illustrated 100 Of Them

Same in Japan! Some of the pedestrian crossings in Japan also had songs, much nicer than the harsh "BEEP BEEP BEEP" back in the UK...

Because in Chinese, the number ‘4’ is pronounced ‘sì’ and that’s very close in pronunciation the world ‘sǐ' which means ‘die’ so us Taiwanese people are superstitious of the number 4

It's always a funny thing to see how different people react on temperature. My fiance is Venezuelan, he already considers 25° celsius as freezing, I'm Swiss and I start melting at 28° celsius.

Noice

Are those baby dragonfruit?

With endless flavors too!

Yum!

Then I wouldn’t fit in, I love plants but everyone thinks I hate them because I can never keep them alive. 😭

yasss

sounds like fun to test them all... yom

Let me pack my bags and head over to Taiwan that is all i need to hear!

AHAHAHA

Taiwan was the first country in the world to open a cat cafe

That looks delicious

BUY ALL THE BREAD! WIN ALL THE LOTTERIES!

I understand it is incredibly popular group social thing to do in Asia, but I just do not get the appeal.

Yummmmm

snakeplant and?

I wished we had morning radio calisthenics here

I get it. this makes sense. why don't we have these in amarica? its easier to carry it this way sometimes.

Ooh my sister would love to go their tofu is one of her favorite foods!

Have you climbed any of them? The sights from the top are beautiful, though you have to watch out for poisonous snakes and hornets!

as they should be

this supports sunbrellas

Taiwanese breakfast though... fresh soy milk... egg wraps... oh my goodness, SO DELICIOUS.

wow you really know what God say

Sounds like a cool book title ^^

True, very true. Asian 7-Elevens are like mini Costcos

Wow.

Including myself

Nope it's not. How are they for recycling and are there thrift stores?

I would actually love to do that and it’s probably pretty common in a lot of countries

that's kinda unsafe...

THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE CALLED! I forgot- lol.

I wonder how many trips it would take to move a whole village?

What a waste.

I'd go look at the field of flowers :)

Are you sure they aren't just use to being patient? Queuing is proper and respectful of those around you, but I wouldn't call it fun.

All day, every day!!!

Yumˋ( ° ▽、° )

thats sounds fun

This is a rice cooker. I think the point is just to acknowledge it's place in making food in the Taiwanese family.

Yess

Sounds delicious, but also a ton of plastic garbage

Do they want to be though? Or do they feel forced to because of social norms and being proper?

Just don't eat it cold...

Many public bathrooms, you need to bring your own paper to wipe with. Easiest thing to carry is the small containers of tissue paper.
