Five Days in Taiwan | Exploring Taipei, Shifen, and Jiufen

I recommend watching in 2160p (4K)!

In November, Kevin and I visited Taiwan for the first time—spending time in Taipei, Shifen, and Jiufen. What stood out to us during our visit was:

↠ ​​All of the greenery throughout and surrounding both its urban areas and its mountain towns
↠ Its blend of old and new—the quiet, winding alleyways tucked away in its bustling neighborhoods
↠ The kind and honest people
↠ Of course, the incredible food! And all of the long-standing, mom-and-pop food stalls

I’m so excited to share our visit and hope this video helps you plan (or inspire) your own visit!
