Taiwan is definitely a hidden gem of Asia. Taipei has been ranked as the fourth safest city in the world, but in my opinion, the entire country is generally very safe. I have personally witnessed people in restaurants casually walking away from their tables and leaving behind their iPhones and MacBooks unattended. Moreover, I can confidently say that most of the time, you will find your lost valuable items in Taiwan. It’s an amazing country.

[@charshih9478]

Haha. I am visiting Taiwan with my family. We have lost our cellphone, etc on the bus, restaurants, etc. and we were able to get them all back. Lost items will be turned into police stations or bus/train depo. I once had to chase a bus down to get my cell phone back. After many stops, it was still there. Not only Taiwan is a very safe country, they are also very friendly. I have asked for directions countless times and they were all eager to help. I love it here.

[@judyyang4404]

I am Taiwanese and living in The State. Every time I visited Taiwan, I discovered something new and exciting. There are so much culture, old and new, luxury shopping and night markets, eating, and outdoor nature to explore. Thank you for visiting and sharing with more people to visit this lovely country.,

I have a Taiwanese student who always shares to me about Taiwan. I realized I feel inlove to this country more and more each time he shares to me. Definitely a country I want to visit if I get the chance.

[@Spt41007]

Absolutely stunned by how you portraited Taiwan in this video. Taiwan is really often underestimated or even ignored when it comes to travelling in Asia. Like this video :)

[@Reformatt]

Taiwan is the best! Currently staying in Kaohsiung, and absolutely love it.

[@seguiric]

I just moved here from New York City born and raised. I am slowly learning all the beauty that surrounds me here in Taiwan. I loved at the very end you said that Taiwan is safe being that I'm from New York and have a general paranoia of theft. I'm gradually letting down my guard and learning what you said is true. Kudos to you in your posting of this video

[@DanielleGoeddeke]

As someone whose been watching your videos since the og makeup days, it’s been SO cool to watch your content evolve through the years and I swear the keep getting better and better. Such gorgeous shots and just overall fantastic videos :’)

Thank you!! It's been a journey. I never would have guessed back in the makeup days that this channel would evolve to something completely different.

[@greeshmasv9066]

It's such a beautiful video. Taiwan was never on my travel bucket list. I never imagined Taiwan to be this. Such a beautiful place.

[@DragonPupEclipse]

It’s because of all the hype of big cities like Paris, New York,Tokyo and London. There are so many other places are so much worth visiting than those cities.

[@seanyeh7936]

You should visit Taiwan one day!

[@tallaganda83]

[@yutensolismyutensil8029]

I studied abroad in Taiwan for fall 2022… and it was the safest place I’ve ever been in, especially since I’m from the US lol

[@lukassiatka]

Welcome to Taiwan! As an expat living there for over 2 years now I can totally say the things you liked about the trip and the country were exactly the things that made me stay there for way longer than I originally planned. Great job, really enjoyed the video!

[@danielngu3150]

Thanks for sharing. Love it. !! Taipei (Taiwan in general) is one of the safest big cities to travel in Asia, you can walk through a city park or small alley at night without having to worry about safety concerns. The food is so good, it becomes a big part of enjoyment on your trip. However, if you are allergic to certain ingredients, then you probably want to be a bit cautious about the food you take. If you don't mind the language barrier, it is definitely highly recommended to all solo female travelers who want to explore Asia cities.

I just traveled through Taiwan for four weeks. In my opinion, I never felt safer than in Taiwan. Although I must admit that besides Taipei I didn’t like the other cities like Kaohsiung too much. Also you missed out on my favourite places like Alishan or Shifen for the stunning nature. Must do’s are definitely the hotsprings!

[@lisahinton3387]

What a gorgeous and thoughtful tribute to the country so dear to my heart. Thank you for a beautiful video. You really showcases the “other” side of this beautiful island!

[@reecsayz151]

I love how you end the video sharing that about the culture. That's so great to have cultures/places like Taiwan where people are respectful of other's belongings.

[@AshesOfRoses]

So impressive that not only did you have a beautiful trip, great food and met lovely people but that you felt so safe personally as well as your property. Wonderful feeling!

[@kevlarcardhouse252]

So exciting! Taiwan is amazing and while slowly growing in popularity, it's still very underrated, at least in the West. I can't believe I finally managed to visit a place before you created a video for it. :)

[@MatthewLinehan-j4m]

Hi Allison...thank you so much for this on Taiwan! My wife and I just moved here 3 months ago and have been wanted to get out of our neighbor and you stimulated us to visit some of these places. I especially liked what you said at the end about the safety and not having to lock your bikes. Taiwan is so safe and the people are incredibly nice. Thanks again!

[@talkingtoalison]

I went to kaohsiung a few years ago with a friend! We went to a cash only restaurant but we didn’t realize it was cash only until after we had eaten and the bill came. We explained this to our waitress! That we had credit cards and we just needed her help finding an atm to pay. She told us not to worry! Are we staying locally? We can get cash and then pay tomorrow! No rush. I thought that was so sweet of her. I have never experienced that in the us

[@alyf.6698]

My cousin lives in Taipai! Makes me want to visit him :) super pretty!!

I was a fan since your Galaxy S21 episode. Can't imagine you actually made it here, Taiwan, Formosa! Next time you visit Taiwan, do remember to include some Taiwan indigenous tribes and even festivals. Their music and culture are one of a kind on this planet.

[@joe130717206]

I am proud to live in Taiwan. I love Taiwan for its numerous mountain cities, such as Jiufen and Shiding. Taiwan's natural ecology is also abundant. When you visit Taiwan next time, you can climb Yushan (the highest peak in Taiwan) and enjoy a vacation on the outlying islands.

I absolutely loved my visit to Taiwan and I think you definitely captured the beauty of it in this video. I travel a lot and I can safely say that food-wise, Taiwan is one of the best places to go. The food is excellent! I tried that Fu Hang Soy Milk place as well and actually, we went twice because it was so good. The night markets are amazing too. Although a bit touristy, I think Shifen and Jiufen are definitely musts. And don't worry if you know nothing of the language, Taipei is very easy to navigate!

I lived in Taiwan in the early 90s when the economy was still mostly manufacturing and shipping. Gaoxiong (Kaohsiung) especially looks so different from how I remember it. I hope I can go back some day. Did you get up into the central mountains at all? Alishan is one of the highest peaks in East Asia and the national scenic area is absolutely gorgeous.

What a great video! You truly caught the beauty of Taiwan and Taipei. I was in Taipei for about five months but it rained most of the time so I just assumed it rained almost all the time there. You got great footage of blue skies and sunshine! And you got a 7-eleven there! When I was there they had these eggs in their convenient stores that had a strong scent to them... maybe century eggs. Beautiful video. Thank you for your post! It looks like you had a fantastic time there! Kindest regards.

[@allisonanderson]

Thank you! Yeah it was pretty cloudy for Taipei and most of the east coast but then we got to Kaohsiung and it was like a 180! I guess that side of the island is known for being much clearer. Taipei seems like a fun city to spend a few months!
