Come to the end of the trip. Last stop in Taipei DanShui & XinGuangShanYue roof top.













Last stop of this trip Taipei, we stay longest in Taipei.
Due to the sienness of start work tommorow, i don’t write much at the moment. Will edit this post when i feel better. By the way most pictures took by Vis except some food shoot. Enjoy lu~ -.-



























4th stop in Taiwan - TaiChung.
I choose to stay Tomato’s room instead Beacon Hotel 4 stars hotel. Due to budget and wan try to stay this designer style of room.


Balcony day view.

Night view from balcony.

Part of the nightmarket in FengJia. I like to shop here, but this time i didn’t buy much in this area. Save money for Taipei :p.
Vis attack by gays eye contact la~ :p

All night market are the same, so many people.

We are Q-ing for this sausage stall. Second time come here, still long Q as always. So we give it a try. Really taste very yummy wo!

After 2 days stay in TaiChung, proceed to the train station again.
P.s: All pictures above took by Vis. I just did some color adjust and cropping :p he did a pretty nice job huh~

Only 3 pictures took by me in TaiChung. Pic above took inside of MOS burger, quite emo feel huh.

Half full tea. Background is vis busy playing psp.

Still playing psp.
Third stop, Tainan. A very cultural and friendly town. Full of nice food and nice people here. But when we reach here we caught into a heavy rain, which is very rare in Tainan. Heard the local said Tainan use to be a very hot weather city, something special when we come lo~

Our “hostel” is more homely type call 静巷十号. The owner call Sherry, she is very helpful and sweet lady. The exterior of the hostel look like Santorini kind of feel. So romantic neh~~~~

Our room, look like some honeymoon room right?�

Underpass at Tainan city, the traffic is so busy that you don’t have chance to J-walk. Not risk your life, better use the underpass.

Huge burger at burger king.

Nice shoot by Vis. He warn me not to copy his style -.-

Temple at 安平area, forgot the temple name.

Bai bai and donate.

Some interesting corner in the temple.

安平古堡. Alot tourist went there? I was thinking since it’s our 1st time here, have to go some tourist spot to proof that we’ve been here.

Self taking again.

Vis very busy shooting during Tainan trip, this is a nice place for photographer.

Potrait time.

I did help him took some potrait too.

My fav shoot. Thanks Darling!

Similar style.

Something diff for each city in Taiwan.

安平树屋. Tree house. A very nice place for potrait.

Nice shoot by Vis.

Finally a picture we took together.

Can feel the mood huh~

Busy to get nice angle to shoot.

I like this wall.

Actually im resting there to wait for Vis finish his photo taking.

Bump to a couple to taking thier wedding photo.

Another tourist spot.

神农街. Shennong Street. Not alot local know this place, cause they dun even know this is tourist spot. This is a very vintage street, full of 60’s~70’s “smell” I purposely choose to come here at night time. Is challenge to shoot at night, but the result is really nice.

Vis like this street very much. Non stop shuttle sound from his camera.

I like to take some small thing over there.

Mail box.

Orchid.

Overview of the street


Ah~~~~ Time to go to the 4th stop. We choose to take train to save money. HSR is double the price neh~~

Stone and tired. Prepare to have 2 hours nap on train.

Pack and go again~
Come back from 14 days backpack trip in Taiwan with Vis a week. We miss Taiwan everything! Take me sometime to edit all the pictures that we take together, I’ve 2 cameras pictures to edit… -.- finally sort out 3days pictures from 1st stop.

Morning 7am reach Changi Airport happily~ breakfast at burger king. Can see Vis really very happy hor~ for me havent wake up completely.


After 4+ hours flight by China Airline, we took a bus to High Speed Rail took another 2 hours to go to the most South part of Taiwan, ZuoYing.

After 2 hours HSR, proceed to another 2 hours Van to our destination HengChun town. Phew~ honestly i sit until my butt 1 feel numb at tat time. Vis was super stone while reach HengChun.
Somemore we get lost while looking for our hostel, may b is night time, kinda hard to recognize our location. At the end i called the owner, he pick us up and bring us have dinner before bring us back to hostel. Is a very friendly owner.

Finally get into out room Bluehi Hostel. This is the 1st time i booked hostel instead hotel or small inn. Much better than i imagine, when we get in Joey(the owner) already on the air con to let the room feel cold and there is a cd hifi playing some bossa nova music. Vis and i love it so much! Such a cozy room. For this summer holiday in taiwan trip, i’ve been looking for cheap n nice hostel or daily rent room. Kenting area is super expensive due to summer break in taiwan. This is the most ideal place i found online. HengChun town just 20~30 mins bus ride to kenting. no problem for young people la~ right? If i go kenting again i will back to this hostel lo~

Day 2 . Try to wake up early and had our yummy chicken cutlet sandwich prepared by the owner. Straight go to 鵝鑾鼻 ErLuanBi Park. A very open space and nice park.�

The very famous and nice light house up to the hill of the park

The path to lead us to the light house, i dunno why i stone there n smile.

I think because i saw this very hairless maltese

The light house.

The silly couple.

Vis alway posing like this for picture taking.

I alway posing this cute for photo taking.

Alot mosquito, but yet have to pose cool.

I’ve not ready yet lo~ he already snap.

After pass that very natural and quite alot mosquito little “jungle” we reach the nature and the sea view… ya i simply name it.

Start to shoot n shoot madly.

I love this view~ the sea is so nice. What is sentosa man~

You see so nice hor~! the sea…

The uncle so enjoy to look at the sea.

Uncle & the crack.

After ErLuanBi, we take public bus go to Kenting town. A happening day and night town. Full of hot chick and tan guy-.-

This restaurant look good huh? we decide to have our lunch here. After that we just simply walk around the town and take pictures. So much to explore.

When near evening, we decide take bus back to our town HengChun to explore the old street and food :p

The T-junction near our hostel.

The colorful pub at HengChun.
