Hi! Assist me with my Taiwan Itinerary? (Late Sept)
Background: Hey guys! I'll be travelling out of my native US for the first time ever as a lucid adult and I would appreciate some pointers for my trip. 23F with a 26M friend who has lived in Taiwan for 3 years and will be my translator/travel buddy/scooter. Budget is $1000~ USD
Actual itinerary:
| look at me | i'm mr meeseeks |
|---|---|
| 9/21 Thurs: | fly |
| Friday | Acclimate and stay in Taipei, easy going suggestions welcome here. Thinking of doing something cultural or artsy. Taiwan Expo Park/Huashan 1914 Creative Park/MOCA/Fine Arts Museum currently on my mind. |
| Saturday | Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall, Taipei 101, Elephant Mountain, Tonghua Night Market. More suggestions around this area are welcome, unless you think I'm overloading myself! |
| Sunday | Qing Tian Gang Parking, Beitou Hotsprings. More suggestions welcome around this general area? |
| Monday | Bus to Hualien, Taroko Gorge exploring. Suggest me your (easier) hiking trails? And places to see/eat in Hualien. Currently thinking of: Songyuan Villa, Qixingtang Beach, Hualien Night Market. |
| Tuesday | Hualien/Taroko Gorge some more. Possibly drive to Jiufen this day instead. |
| Wends | Drive up to Houtong Village/Jiufen/Shifen and then back to Taipei. |
| 9/28 Thurs | fly |
Main questions:
- Any tips on how to survive my first 17hr flight?
- Will getting an international license be a bad idea (safety wise) to drive up on the coast from Hualien to Houtong/Jiufen/Shifen and then Taipei? I slightly optimistic of my LA driving experience to get me through this.
- Food me! I want to eat my way through Taiwan. I have a list of night market items I already want to try but if you happen to have specific restaurants (besides addiction aquatic, that's on my to do) in any of the locations I travel to, please suggest. I also love boba/bubble tea so please suggest those too.
- Am I overloading myself with all these plans? I'm especially worried about fitting driving up the coast + Houtong/Jiufen/Shifen in one day.
Thanks for all your help!
