First Impressions of TAIPEI, Taiwan! (inc Traditional & Local Taiwanese Food) Travel Vlog

[@marxeric1913]

Taiwanese people always love friends from far far away. People are calm and friendly and love to follow the orders. The country is extremely safe. Hope you guys eat a lot & enjoy Taiwan.

[@KristyandSteve]

You are so right, Mark! The wonderful people made us feel like Taiwan was our home, we felt so welcomed and safe 🇹🇼❤️ We ate so much delicious food (we have a few videos coming up on the food). Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment on our video 🤗

[@Get-A-Life]

This place is on our go-to travel list. Watching on with interest. Nice one.

[@KristyandSteve]

Glad to hear its on your list! Its such a wonderful country 🇹🇼 Thanks for watching guys!

[@travellingwithcrowsfeet]

We'll be watching this with interest. We were just talking about our November trip and the need to get things booked. ❤❤

[@KristyandSteve]

Definitely add Taiwan to the list! We wished we spent more time there and travelled more of the country, its AMAZING!!!

[@mariposabay4006]

The lady gave you the bun said "I feel like treating you one of the buns I've got." Yep, Taiwanese do things like this all the time. It's a pleasant experience to be at either the giving or receiving ends.

[@KristyandSteve]

So sweet of her! We've never experienced friendliness anywhere in the world like we did in Taiwan. Just the most beautiful, kind people ❤️

[@tonykchen888]

At the breakfast. The lady that gave you the free bun also said I’ve ordered you a xiao long bao. So it was compliments of the lady not the restaurant.

[@KristyandSteve]

Such a sweet lady! Very kind of her ❤️

[@James-hk4oy]

Thanks Kristy & Steve showing us the lovely street food. If travel via China Airlines (Taiwan) from Sydney or Melbourne or Brisbane to Taipei, service is excellent and each passenger with 2x 23kg checked in luggage. Highly recommended.

[@KristyandSteve]

Hi James! You're very welcome, thank you so much!😊 We did actually fly with China Airlines from Taipei back home to Melbourne and they were fantastic! Best customer service we've ever experienced (which wasn't too surprising seeing as though we had such wonderful encounters with so many lovely Taiwanese locals while we were there). Fabulous Airline! Thank you for watching ❤️

[@KristyandSteve]

Forgot to mention, we did film a video reviewing our China Airlines flight, should be out in a few weeks ☺️

[@karenwilliams31]

Great video loved looking around Taipei 👍👍

[@KristyandSteve]

Thanks Karen, glad you enjoyed it 🤗

[@sharonmcguire9890]

Really enjoyed this video, looking forward to the rest of your Taiwan videos

[@KristyandSteve]

Thanks Shazzy! 🥰

[@chuonguyen123]

really good video you two. i love the food

[@KristyandSteve]

Thanks! We loved the food to 🤤 some of the best we've ever had

[@jazzenthuiagirl]

It's either bao or bun, saying bao bun is essentially saying bun bun. :) The Taiwanese love lining up for things lol. :) You guys also went to our favorite Pepper Bun stand in Taiwan.

[@KristyandSteve]

Ohhh oops!🙊 The pepper buns were our favourite food we had the entire time we spent in Taiwan - INCREDIBLE! 🤤 Thanks for watching! 🤗

[@taiwanbyeric]

Don't know if you guys are still in Taiwan, but let me know if you want to explore the tropical jungles / waterfalls of Taiwan! Taipei's nice...but all the hidden gems are out in the mountains and countryside!

[@KristyandSteve]

We've left unfortunately! Our videos are about a month behind. We will definitely return to explore more of the country though! Thank you for the recommendations 😍

[@chengrace9848]

Hope you two come visit Taiwan again SOON❤

[@KristyandSteve]

Thank you, we will certainly revisit and spend more time traveling around the country - so much to see and do ❤️

[@James-hk4oy]

Thanks!

Thank you ❤️

[@tea98988]

Thank you for showing me my home city. I miss it very much.

[@KristyandSteve]

Oh you are so very welcome! Taipei is such a beautiful, colourful, amazing city with the friendliest people we have ever met. What a lovely home city you're from, thank you for watching 🥰

[@AmbientWalking]

I love kicking back on my sofa and just watching the way you move around. It's so relaxing! Thank you!

[@KristyandSteve]

Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for watching 🥰

[@okletgo-di6dd]

I miss my time in Australia so much. Welcome to Taiwan!

[@KristyandSteve]

Thank you 😊 Did you live in Australia for awhile or have a holiday? Its a beautiful country also ❤️

[@okletgo-di6dd]

@@KristyandSteve I once went to Western Australia for a working holiday for a year. I worked at the Harvey Fresh milk factory for four months, and during other times, I went on road trips exploring. I traveled from Perth all the way to Karratha. Australians are friendly and hospitable. There was one time when I accidentally locked my keys inside the car, and a few Australians helped us open the car door through a gap in the window. I was truly touched by their kindness. Later on, I met them again at a restaurant and treated them to beers. It was an unforgettable experience. Hearing your English accents in the videos made me feel a sense of warmth and reminded me of those memories.

[@KristyandSteve]

So happy to hear you had a wonderful experience in Australia! Hopefully you get to return one day 🇦🇺❤️

[@okletgo-di6dd]

​@@KristyandSteve yes ,I'll go back to visit my friends, thank you.🇦🇺❤🐨🦘

[@kevinkuok9131]

Guy taking his pet pig for a walk??😂 The dough stick/cruller has a lovely aftertaste if you keep chewing on it. Tastes nice too if you dunk it in sweet black coffee

[@KristyandSteve]

We couldnt believe it when we saw the pig 🤣 so funny and cute! The fried dough stick was just perfection and dipped in sweet coffee sounds delicious! 🤤 Thank you for watching 🙏

[@user-ru1cl8tk7l]

歡迎來台灣玩🎉❤

[@KristyandSteve]

谢谢 🥳😍🇹🇼

[@leonhank4448]

Your post came to my attention… Have fun in this lovely place. There is a lot u can do just in Taipei. However, if u want to get away from the city, travel south or East, a totally different experience!

[@KristyandSteve]

Thank you 🙏 We spent about a week in Taipei and also visited Jiufen for a few days, (we have 4 more videos coming out from Taiwan). Definitely wasnt long enough, we easily could have spent a few extra weeks or months traveling the country 🥰

[@leonhank4448]

@@KristyandSteve Hope u guys have a good time in Taiwan where I was born. If your video came across to me here in Boston, I’m sure there will be more people who came across my region in US and Taiwan soon. Good luck to your journey, mate! Keep up the great job 👏

[@KristyandSteve]

You're very kind, thank you so much! We really appreciate it 🤗

[@travellingwithcrowsfeet]

Yay, we hace been waiting for this one! Fantastic vlog, well done on your views BTW, you've worked the algorithm, congrats, and the food looks fantastic

[@KristyandSteve]

Thanks so much! Yes we were pretty surprised to be honest, we're glad people are watching it though, everyone needs to know how wonderful of a country Taiwan is! 😍🇹🇼

[@KristyandSteve]

We've left Taiwan unfortunately (our videos are about a month behind real time), thank you for the suggestions though 🤗

[@FobbyAzn]

yeah... reagrading writing "Xie Xie" on that order form? I don't think most ppl in Taiwan can understand PinYin.

[@KristyandSteve]

Haha yeah that does make sense, oops 🤪

I think that's a kitty

Pig as pet by a great human creature

[@KristyandSteve]

It was the biggest pig we've ever seen! 🤣

[@artfquinn]

Rat and mouse are the same word in Chinese.

[@KristyandSteve]

Ohhh ok! Thank you for letting us know ☺️

[@shiehliling2817]

That’s not true, City don’t allow people to put their garbage in the street so that is Not seeing rat around anymore.

[@leesean0527]

Guessing you will say cockroach nexttime

[@KristyandSteve]

Cockroaches are ok, just not rats 😖
