travel notes from each of the cities, towns and places I have visited.

.:: Taipei ::.

A snapshot of the uncertain street, Grand Hotel from the window, and the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and the National Palace Museum... perhaps.

Not the city, but the experience turned out to be completely different from what I had in mind when I got the tickets: Checked off the landmark, crossed wide roads which resembled S-town, said hi to Yat, circled the leafy alleys with cafes, restos and salons which resembled K-town, the new designers cluster where Shiatzy Chen and Robyn Hung were neighbours, the outdoor gear stores cluster, the happening streets which resembled O-town, the eki-mae, the underground street, and finally experiencing the Shilin Night Market. Experiencing Mist. And the lengthy list of cafes which I could not possibly work through all within these few days: must visit again. hopefully not alone.
