台湾我来也之day1


Hello.. I'm back from Taiwan. This is the 2nd day since im back after being there for 9days and i'm kinda missing the life of waking up just to walk-walk, shop, eat.. etc Nevetheless, it's back to reality and back to work. Presentation on thursday and i'm going down with tbf to HDB to make our second payment which is 5%.

Anyway, since my mind is still fresh from the taiwan trip, i shall blog on it before memory fails me which always happen.

Day 1:

My sister, bro-in-law, bro, his gf, my mummy and her friend made their way down to taiwan first as their flight is at 1am whereas mine and kenny were at 7am.
flew by jetstar at a promotion of "bring one friend for free" at a rate of ard $240 per pax which is considered cheap i guess?

Reached taoyuan airport ard 12pm-1pm and immediately went to get the prepaid card with unlimited data plan at NT3000 to get in contact with my siblings who already travelling ard in taipei with the driver which we arranged with beforehand. Decided to share the network with Kenny since there's an amazing thing call personal hotspot, haha. It was still a hassle cause when i needed to use internet i have to ask him and also draining both of our battery, but ok lah, can save a bit here and there is still better. And also disconnect from the cyber world is good once in a while.

Bought the bus ticket at the bus counter 1 to get to the highspeed rail 高铁, direct to the station where you can take the 高铁.

Tickets to 台中。 forgot how much it costs but you should be able to check the rate online or even buy online if im not wrong. You can also select your seats but of cuz you have to pay for it. Therefore, we bought the free sitting one.

us in the highspeed rail train.

at the taichung station waiting for my family to pick us up.
Finally met up with them after a hour of wait and head towards the carton king, 纸盒王国. This place is made up of papers, their tables, chairs.. it's amazing.

If you take a closer look at this ticketing booth, you will see that it is actually made up of paper boxes. damn cool right!
It costs NT200 but of which NT100 can be used to purchase items or dining. In the end all the NT800 is used between me,kenny,my bro and his gf. Kenny bought a v cute robot which can be winded, haven try it out yet though, wonder does it walks or sth. 








paris Eiffel tower ,big ben, Leaning tower of pisa all done in one day =P

We headed to our mingsu straight after this at Migo, fengjia. Didnt take picture of my room for this mingsu though. Afterwhich, we headed to our first night market.



This pretty much sum up my day 1.

Shall end it off here, will blog again when im free for the  other 8 days. =)

P/S: i'm so so proud of myself to actually write such a lengthy post with pictures. HAHA. Hopefully it will bring my blogging passion back. Till then..
