I travelled to Taiwan, Taipeh with my friends and had the best time ever! The food was the best I had in a long time and for the price it was too good to be true. I felt so safe in Taipeh and never had any issues with feeling uncomfortable. But also around Taipeh I was so impressed by the nature. I highly recommend going there!!

Taiwan
I felt really safe in Taipei, the weather was nice, and the food was delicious. I stayed at WoW Hostel in Ximending, it was cheap and the beds were good, with curtains and a lockers. It was sometimes a bit noisy but it is normal is this neither, I didn't mind. Staff was friendly too. Taipei is really great for museums and culture ! I loved it

Taiwan was very very safe. It is also extremely cheap and affordable. I stayed at hostels which were very affordable, clean, safe, and quite luxurious actually. Lots of delicious food there everywhere you go.

It's very safe in Taiwan. As a backpacker who was in Southeast Asia, Taiwan is considered more expensive and is comparable to the cost one would incur in Singapore. As there are many delicious street food in Taiwan, it's good to make friends and have people to share the food together! Hostels in Taiwan are more expensive on the weekends as the locals are also traveling within their country. Good to book in advance if you're moving cities over the weekend.

Taiwan is a very safe country for female travellers. It was super simple to solo travel because the trains and bus make it easy to get around and people are helpful. I recommend visiting taipei, juifen, sun moon lake and hualien. The nature is beyond stunning here.

Taipei is very safe actually, even if i go out alone at night I'm still not worried. There are lights everywhere,so no need to worry about walking on dark alleys. But I would still be careful at night, there are some homeless people, but they are quite harmless just minding there own business.

Depends on the area, mostly safe, but need to be aware of the Ximen-Wanhua area. As long as you’re near the public transport, MRT or buses are usually active till 12:00-1:00 am. If you feel unsafe, make sure to reach out to the nearest convenience store, such as 7-11 or Family Mart. They are open 24 hours.

Hiiiii💕 My name is Yu Tsen Chien, but you can call me Ariel. I’m an 18 years old design student from Taiwan🇹🇼 and will turn 19 this June. (if you don’t know where is Taiwan, it is where bubble milk tea come from🧋) Sooooo, I’m going to Istanbul as a global volunteer, and after that, I’m planning to explore Italy and France for around two weeks!🥰 It’s a big adventure for me—I’ll be traveling solo and self-funded, with a budget of just €1500. That’s why I’m hoping to find a host who could offer me a couch or a safe place to sleep🫶🏻‼️ I’m super friendly, love meeting people from different cultures, and would be happy to share about Taiwanese food, language, or anything you’re curious about. I’d also love to hang out or cook together if we get the chance! Also—if you are a local or are planning to travel around Southern Europe during that time, I’d love to find a travel buddy too! Whether it’s just for a day trip or a few stops together, I’d be so happy to connect and explore with someone new😊 feel free to connect on my IG or Whatsapp: @ariellejian/ +886975015529

Hi, I’m Jody from Taiwan🇹🇼! I often travel around the world. I love exploring natural landscapes, experiencing local cultures, and most importantly, making friends from all over the world!🫧 I recently started learning Japanese because I’ve met so many lovely Japanese people who made me fall in love with Japan, and I want to be able to communicate with them in Japanese. I also really enjoy photography, and in Taiwan, I sometimes take on travel photography gigs. If you like taking photos too, we can go shoot together! This June, I’ll be moving to the UK to start my studies there!
ps
Hi, I recently started travelling more, would really like to know a country from a local’s perspective

Welcome to my sunny profile ☀️ I'm 32 years old (from Paris, France) and I'm eager to learn, always ready to try new things, versatile, a team player, sociable, but I also like to contribute my knowledge and share. I have an intermediate level of English, but I need to keep practicing. I like cooking, looking after animals, creative/manual activities and I'm interested in flora and fauna, permaculture too. I've held several positions in Australia, South Africa and Malaysia, now it's time for me to live my best life (traveling around the world) and to meet, and share again and again 🤍 Let's talk and see when and how we can meet up or if it's possible for you to host me ✨ For all those who will host me, they will be welcome at my home in Paris or in a second place (which I haven't found yet).
