12 Days Taiwan Graduation Trip

The most anticipated trip! And thumbs up for this awesome trip! It's not entirely taiwan trip alone as there's an exchange of plane to Taiwan from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. So it should be Sabah-Taiwan graduation trip.


Since it's a super duper long trip although not as long as my internship in Guangzhou. I will just summarize everything here. (am just lazy to write actually~ haha)


First arrival and took a brisk walk around Kota Kinabalu town. Nothing much compared to KL only that the cost of living there are comparable higher. A bowl of normal mee can costs up to RM6 - RM7. If I would be going for the next trip to Sabah, I would definitely go to KK Mountain and Sipadan Island. 


In the mere 12 days in Taiwan, my coursemates (4) and I, can said to travelled the whole Taiwan except for the Eastern area. Taiwan is really the most recommended travel spots of all Asian countries. Really had a pleasant traveling time there. Why? The people there are friendly and easy to talk to. (well, of course if you can speak Chinese well) The mountains and peaks really have beautiful and breathtaking views. The transportation systems are systematic, easily understood and very punctual so you can easily plan the trip in detail without wasting any time. The food there were my all time favorite! Night markets in Taiwan are all filled with delicious snacks! Not forgetting all the milk teas and icy fruits desserts! My all time favorite snacks are Taiwan sausages and fried mushrooms! Yummy! (photos can be viewed below)


And Taiwan people love dogs so much~ They bring them around all the time... To night markets, to shopping malls, to MRT trains, to garden and parks, to beaches and to everywhere~ It's a dog paradise! Definitely gonna breed one if I live there.


Experienced both sunrise and sunset there! Although in two different places~ The sun rises around 4.30am in Taiwan and that's super early... So we need to wake up at 3.00am to catch the sun. And the skies there are always bright even at night. The clouds are visible even at night! Awesome feeling!


The places I have visited are Tai Chung (台中), Tainan (台南), Alishan (阿里山), Sun Moon Lake (日月潭), Kao Shiung (高雄),  Kending (墾丁) and Taipei (台北).


I would really want to stay in Taiwan for like 3 months and learn about their culture and how such country develop in such way. Traveling in Taiwan and staying there is a totally different thing altogether. I'm definitely flying back to Taiwan~ ^^
