Description: We loved Taiwan so much that we've created this MASSIVE video travel guide. USE THE DESCRIPTION TO NAVIGATE! We've designed this to be used like a video travel book - flip to the "chapter" that you're interested in! These places are mainly grouped by region, and are NOT in the order that we visited them (the order we did them is listed near the bottom of the description). ENJOY! Each chapter below has links to WHERE WE STAYED AND TICKETS, if applicable. Not sure where to start? Our favorite video sections are Kaohsiung Lotus Pond, Alishan, and Chishang. THANKS FOR WATCHING!

Description

In-depth travelers who over-analyze and research everything, including the destinations we visit!

We know we'll visit 100 countries eventually, but we're in no hurry to get there. There's always MORE to see, whether it's nature, architecture, food, or sights. We're in search of the BEST hidden gems and underrated spots, which usually takes us to amazing off the beaten path places.

We travel on a modest budget but don't mind spending on experiences, a splurge hotel, or an incredible meal. We hope to inspire YOU to travel to some incredible places. You're never too old to have amazing adventures!
