27 Dec 12 -1 Jan 13

3rd visit to Taiwan within 2 years. this time its Kaohsiung & Taipei. First stop, Kaohsiung: From Taoyuan took HSR to Kaohsiung. 1hr plus journey, saw plantations and farms along the way. Cabbed to our hotel R8 Eco hotel. its located at the 12th storey of a building with rooms being named after the MRT stations of Kaohsiung. Some highlights of Kaohsiung, we went to cycle ard Love River, visited MayDay's concert behind the scene museum and plenty of shopping. Spend about 3 days in Kaohsiung before travelling up to Taipei. Just the night before we leave, saw the weather forecast that it would be 9deg in Taipei. GG-fied cos we didnt really bring coldwear..

By the time we reach Taipei, it was raining and there were strong wind blowing.. brr.. we had to buy gloves for our hands. Shop at ZhongXiao Dong Lu, looking for Kinaz, Top Girl, Stage Stayreal.. surprisingly, this time we found them easily.. Then proceed to Ximending and i bought a Kinaz bag again! OMG, its like every visit to Taiwan must buy a Kinaz bag..This time we also went Jiufen.. Lesson learnt: Jiufen & Shi Fen is DAMN far apart! hahaha, we thought its close so end up walking in the old street and up on the mountain there is actually strong free wifi! amazing! catch the countdown fireworks at Guo Fu Ji Nian Guan.. squeeze with the crowd to catch a portion of A Mei's performance, new countdown experience!

New Year, i hope to meet new things new ppl <3 p="p">
