Is Taipei City safe to travel?

Solo travel experience

Taiwan is incredible and definitely an underrated region of Asia. I spent a week in Taipei and never felt unsafe there. The food was amazing, I tried many really affordable dishes from street stalls which received Michelin stars. My only regret is that I didn't visit other parts of the country.

Solo travel experience

I lived in Taipei for 1,5 years and it’s definitely one of the safest and cleanest of the big cities I’ve ever been to! Good food, wonderful people, good nightlife, amazing culture, temples everywhere and hiking trails not far from the city. Just be mindful of the snakes, spiders and bees. You will also get to lots of dogs in baby carriages! ◡̈

Is Taipei City worth visiting?

Solo travel experience

People from Taiwan are so nice! It's also quite easy to travel alone. I recommend getting a sim card for data and being able to rent a bike. This saves a lot of time and you can travel almost all over the city, just following the bike paths. Eat everything you can at street stalls!

About Me

Hi there, I’m Laetitia from Taipei. If you’re planning to come visit, please don’t hesitate to pm me for some tips or local pocket lists around the city, or feel free to grab a drink with me🤩 2024 is a big year for me, since I decided to give myself a break, quit my job to start all over, and hit the road. I’m planning a 60 days trip in middle Europe, and hope to have the opportunity to couch surf in different cities❤️ Can’t wait for all the adventures ahead of me, and make new friends along the way🥺 In my friends’ point of view, I’m always “the mom” in the group (just can’t help myself not to take care of everyone). I’m proud to say I make a pretty fun and caring roommate, and also, I cook😂 And also, I’m a total animal lover(including insects🤣)
