Hi @yanah12 I responded na

[mrsBuens]

^sis choco_loka...true, eto na pinakamalamig na winter na naexperience ko dito...saan ka sa Taiwan sis? Sorry di pa ko tapos mag backread...

so happy to find this thread! i've been living in Taiwan for 8 years now. Medyo nakapamasyal na rin kami dito nga mga kaibigan ko

I'm working sa Zhongli City (Chungli)...about 45 mins from Taipei and 20 mins from Taoyuan International Airport.

If grupo kayo and you wish to travel all around Taiwan without worrying about language barrier...pwede nyo i-contact si kuya Jeffry Chua Lim. Pwede nyo contact via line, viber, whatsapp or FB..# +886975078272 / +886986558838

Siya din service namin pag namamasyal, hatid-sundo sa airport. Alam nya mga pasyalan from north to South ng Taiwan. Taiwanese sya pero lumaki sa Pinas. Kaya pinoy na pinoy din sya. If may tanong po kayo, I'd be happy to help

Hi @mrsBuens
Wow finally may taga Taiwan na rin na Girltalker Dito ako sa Taipei mismo. Yes nakapunta na rin ako dati sa Zhongli pero matagal na rin.

Magkano usually binabayad nyo kay Kuya Jeffry if you get him the whole day? Baka mas mura pa sa kanya. Usually kasi pag sa kakilala namin na Taiwanese driver 3500 for 11 hours tapos siya na rin taga picture and tourguide na rin, un nga lang Mandarin lang kaya nya

[yanah12]

@mrsBuens
Uy, nice yan. How much ang rate ni Kuya Jeffry? Around Taipei tour spots lang sana like yehliu etc.

[ninglovesturquoise]

@choco_loka, mga December na siguro ang balik namin sa Taiwan, sana di super lamig!

Mura yun driver niyo na 3,500/day. The one we got last time 10k for 3 days, super sulit at ang bait pa. We gave him a little dagdag dahil we were really happy with his service kaya lang Taichung area ang hawak niya so pag pumunta kami uli and Taipei area, will try your guide hehe.

We're thinking Kaohsiung in December, Mla-Kaohsiung then Taipei-Mla 'coz my mom wants to go to Yilan too.

Hi @mdj10 i know a driver kaya lang the problem is language barrier... hindi siya nakaka pag English. I would suggest visiting Tripadvisor threads kasi may recommendations sila usually ng mga driver.

@ninglovesturquoise
Yes! So cold from Saturday-Monday! Nung Sunday it was 3 degrees here in Taipei, coldest ever in my 7years of stay. Nagsnow sa mountain areas Come here during spring, it's beautiful!

Thanks sis choco_loka😀 Just got back from Taiwan last night..

[mdj10]

Stayed for 2 days in spring ground bnb...super cold around 3degrees..people there are so nice..then went to Taichung to see Sun Moon Lake for 300NT surprisingly cheap including na round trip boat ride ...stayed in Le Parker hotel na upgrade pa kami..the best yung street food in Feng Jia night market !!! Then stayed in Taipei for 3 days... Again so many places to see.. Kulang ang 6 days.. I will definitely come back😬😬

[loverofsummer]

^I had an amazing experience in Sun Moon Lake last Chinese New Year. Super in full bloom ang cherry blossoms! Daig ang Sakura Season sa Japan, I dare say!

[mrsBuens]

^sisses! di ko alam ang rate ngayon ni kuya Jeffry...pero ask ko sya ng range nya then share ko sa inyo..pero kung detailed itinerary, siguro mas okay diretso sa kanya

^choco_loka: happy din ako meron na ako na-meet na taga-dito..sa hehe...

My husband and I, together with our toddler enjoyed Taipei. Mas type ko than HK, though mas madami tourist spots sa HK. Pero i find Taipei cleaner with friendlier people. Went there last December 12 and weather was nice. Cool but not to cold. Yung mga locals naka fall attire na pero kaya pa naman naka sleeveless and sandals sa morning.

[scents01]

will visit Taiwan for the first time late this month or early next month.. tambay muna dito for some info.. question mga sis, sa Taipei ba business center ng Taiwan? sa mga nakatira sa Taiwan, may alam ba kayong real estate companies na nagooffer ng investment? Thanks!

[cpalaboy]

went to Taiwan last week for pre-chinese new year. Weather was cold!!

Visited Sun Moon lake and Cing Jing, but too bad it was too foggy. Wasn't able to enjoy the view.

[skylove]

@mdj10, we had a wonderful driver when we visited Taichung, including Cingjing Farm, etc. He drove us around for 3 days. He was kind, honest, at hindi mabilang. His rates were also very affordable. I wrote a tripadvisor post on his services. If you are interested, I will pm you his name and contact number. Happy travelling!

Hi, please PM his name and contact number. We'll be in Taichung for a month. So we'll definitely go around often. Thank you. ☺

^ sis @ninglovesturquoise, can I also have the contact details?

Nakagrab kami ng ticket from CebPac last night ng friend ko. 1500 RT Makakapunta na rin ako dito

[skylove]

Hi! Does anybody know if there is 4G signal in Taichung? How 'bout 3G? How's the speed? What's a good prepaid sim with data that I can get? From what I researched telecoms offer unlimited 3G plans. But I'm not so sure if speed is ok with 3G only.

[viewfrommyveranda]

Hi All -- saw this link and wondering if anyone tried doing a Sakura viewing in Taiwan from Taipei. Parang the closest is the temple in New Taiwan City. Does anyone know if meron by end next week? Appreciate the info. Thanks

[hearty_flakes]

Mga sis, help naman where to stay in taipei? Any recommendation for cheap accomodation for 4? Mga hostel type na maayos naman. Sayang ang money to stay in a hotel. TIA!

[runbarbierun]
