I love Taiwan (Day one)

Hello and here’s my very long overdue post on my Taiwan trip. I try as much as I can to update but then, sometimes it’s a little hard cause my time is spent on work, life and korean dramas/variety shows. :p

Anyways its my first time visiting Taiwan and I was really excited for the trip when I was planning for it. It’s also my very first time travelling with my family & bx. So yeap, moving on, there’s my itinerary for Taiwan!

I got this hello kitty luggage on Q0010 for $78 for this trip! ❤

Bx’s family lovingly sent us to the airport! & thanks David for heading down straight from work to send us off.

I also got this pink squishy headrest from Typo for the trip so that I can sleep comfortably when we travel around cause we will be expecting lots of travelling!

I read on another blog saying this was nice so I gave this a try once I landed. Pretty good I must say, I love papayas.

We landed, bought SIM card from the booth in front of the escalator, then went down the escalator, bought food then took a bus to the HSR station.

While waiting for the HSR, we ate our sushi! Oh btw, we got our tickets prior to the trip from Klook.com tickets cause it’s CHEAPER then when you go to the counter to buy it. So yeah, #auntiespirit

I super love the scenery while we were on the HSR cause there are just so many greenery & pebbly streams.

We arrived taichung via HSR. We arranged a driver to bring us around taichung for the 2 days we spent here. My driver was Mr Li: +886 979 600 538. He was really nice 🙂 Paid 4000NT per day.

Our first station, 18 degrees, wasn’t in my itinerary but Mr Li recommended us to go before we head to the next destination since we had the time to.
