I've been to Taichung on my last 2 days in Taiwan back in 2018 - thanks to their government's initiative of Visa Free for us in the SEA. I agree, it's an underrated city! I love every bit of Taiwan! Such beautiful country! Wonderful, friendly and helpful people! Also, the cheap price for everything was amazing! I'll be coming back later this year if they will renew the Visa free.
@@RalphSam yes! from the Philippines and I just found that their visa free is extended!!! I'm going back on December for our holiday break!! yehey!!! I bookmarked this vlog to build my itinerary! 🥰
The part of Taichung you guys went to is far more modernized. The birthplace of boba is very close where you visited. Love hearing Taiwanese as it is rarely spoken these days or from what I noticed from my last visit. These videos are just so wonderful. The lofi music plus pictures and increased narration puts a nice touch on this channel. Love it!
We are planning to go to Taichung in February this coming year and you took us to an amazing introduction to it. I love your artistic Vlog. Great job guys.
We were just there last week and went to a few of the places from your past Taiwan vlogs ❤. I loved it there and can’t wait to visit again! Taichung will surely be on our list. I always get excited whenever there’s a new vlog. Keep ‘em coming!!
Amo demasiado sus vlogs, me encantan sus aventuras no saben lo mucho que me hacen sonreír con las tomas de los lugares y como muestran distintos ángulos de los lugares que visitan. Un abrazo desde Venezuela 🇻🇪
Hi Sam! I noticed that you're still using just your phone for the vids up to now. You were able to maximize it, haha. Love it!! You guys are becoming my standard for vlogs and it keeps getting better everytime 🎉🎉😊😊 always super informative din!
Notifsquad! 🎉❤ Thanks for the new vlog. Love your vlogs for the visual feast and I just stream them the whole night to lull me to sleep because your voices are so soothing. LOL 😊 1:58 There's a Mister Donut at One Ayala and they sell the pon de ring! (No matcha flavor though). I love the Rocky Road and plain glaze 🥰
I really love your vlogs. They are really fun to watch and have very informative content. The way you show the place you're traveling makes me feel like I'm there. I'm planning to visit Taiwan for the first time and would definitely go back to watch your vlogs on your Taiwan trips to get an idea of how to plan my vacation there. Keep making vlogs they are so inspiring.
We love watching your channel and you guys seriously deserve more subscribers. Sam, you may have mentioned this in a previous video and I just missed it but can you tell me about the shoulder bag you keep carrying? It’s a beautiful yellow/beige color. 😊
Hi, there! Your Taiwan travel videos have been such a great resource for me as I plan our trip there in a few months. Just curious if you still recall the name of the shop where you could make your own jewelry? Would love to check it out if we have time when we visit Taichung. :)
What's awesome about you both is that you don't live that far from these beautiful places. Keep these videos coming.........also what's the song that starts at 4:42?
Hi there! Roughly we stayed 2 to 3 nights in each city, using the High Speed Rail and Local Train to travel. We spent more time in Taipei since it was the busiest. Cities in order: - Kaohsiung - Taichung - Taipei - Keelung
i thought i was watching a foreign silent vlog, until i read in the comments that you're from the PH.. love your vlog! i cannot wait to visit taichung next month haha btw, what film camera are you using?
Hi! Really in love with your vlogs❤ Planning my trip to Thailand (Bangkok) and your videos are very useful :) Can you please say what font do you use at the beginning of the video?
If you are visiting Taiwan for a short term and traveling with High Speed Rail for a few days, there are exclusive tickets for 2-day optional & 3-day consecutive unlimited rides!
Loving all your vlogs especially the coffee shop hopping 😍 Are you guys open to visiting India? It’s my dream place at the moment. Me and my partner love Indian food. Would love to see you exploring the country too but only if you’re keen of course 😄 I would still be watching your vlogs nevertheless 😘 thanks for the relaxing videos! Love from NZ ❤
We've definitely discussed it 😊 love Indian food as well! Just not sure if we're experienced enough travelers to make such a big trip, but we would love to one day 🤍 Thank you for watching!
No worries 😊 Also trying to convince my partner to visit at least Mumbai once in our life! Hey if you guys swing by here in nz, would love to connect with you. We also vlog but we only do silent ones. Your vlogs are so inspiring. Anyway happy Tuesday guys! 😘
We’re here in Auckland but would also like to try living in Christchurch 😊 Yes we’ve got lots of wonderful sceneries and landscapes especially in the South Island. But here in Auckland we’re surrounded by beaches so it’s good in the summer. You’ll enjoy it here if you love nature 😄 Coffee scene here is also quite good!
Oh, if you're traveling with young kids, then I might suggest Kaohsiung's riverside area with the museums, art galleries and night lights. Especially on the weekend. It's maybe more family friendly.
Check out Kaohsiung Pier 2 Art Center. They often have exhibits for kids. Lots of riverside activities as well. You can also visit the pagodas, etc. :)
@@RalphSam any possibility you have a contact phone number for Manho Hotel? We would like to call them. Did you use any other hotels in Taiwan you liked?
You’re one of the quality vlogging channels worth following. I like how you take us on a tour with you and speak more in front of the camera💜
Really appreciate it! More to come ❤️
99% of vloggers on YT show their faces 99% of the vlog.

We love watching your channel and you guys seriously deserve more subscribers. Sam, you may have mentioned this in a previous video and I just missed it but can you tell me about the shoulder bag you keep carrying? It’s a beautiful yellow/beige color. 😊
Thank you so much 😊 Oh, of course! It's actually from my mom, a Prada bag that she found at a vintage shop in Paris 🤎
Hey there! Do you mind sharing where you stayed at Taichung in this video? It looks amazing!
Man Ho 😊 highly recommend it!
Lovely places , it's underestimated taiwan

Loved the opening Mia C Wu song. You two should make a Spotify playlist.
Love that song! And hey, not a bad idea! Thanks!
Hi, there!
Your Taiwan travel videos have been such a great resource for me as I plan our trip there in a few months.
Just curious if you still recall the name of the shop where you could make your own jewelry? Would love to check it out if we have time when we visit Taichung. :)
That's so nice to hear! 😊 The vintage jewelry shop's name is in Chinese, but it's located right beside Turbid Drip Coffee on Google Maps.
@@RalphSam yay! Thanks so much for taking to respond. Looking forward to more vlogs from you guys. :)
No worries, enjoy planning your Taiwanese trip ✌🏻
Love your videos! Can you let me know which camera strap Ralph has? The green one looks so ideal!
Sure! Got the strap from Fotoclub Bangkok. It's also a film lab. You can probably find something similar online if you look for rope camera strap 😉👌🏽
Also, its the bicycle manufacturing center of the world.
Amazing! 🚴♂️🚴♂️🚴♂️
What's awesome about you both is that you don't live that far from these beautiful places. Keep these videos coming.........also what's the song that starts at 4:42?
True! That song is Bird Creek's Ipanema Daydream. Thanks for watching!
@@RalphSam awesome thank you! 🙏🏽

Lovely video❤ what is the name of the hotel? It looks awesome
Thank you! We stayed in Manho Hotel. Highly recommend it ✨️
What hotel did you guys stay there? Ill be traveling there the end of December
Manho hotel. Totally recommend it! Have a good trip
Hey guys, I like the vibe of your vid.
What area of Taichung would you recommend as a hotel base for urban exploration?
Thank you! We stayed in the area close to Miyahara in the Central District. Very interesting old-school Taiwanese area. Would recommend it.
@@RalphSam Alright, selamat!
17:35 love your videos. You have inspired me to use my film cameras. This hat looks like a tortilla
happy to hear that! also the tortilla comment made us laugh 😂
Ralph: MY LEG!!!!
Wait when did I say that?? 😄😄
That’s exactly what I was thinking! Hahahaha 😂😂😂
Hello! Could you share the location of the vintage shop you went to? Thank you!
Hi! On Google Maps it has a chinese name, but you can find it right beside Turbid Drip Cafe 😊
Hi, if you were to choose to spend 2 days in a city with family, would you recommend Taichung or Kaoshiung?
Personally, I would choose Taichung. It's a little more modern with beautiful cafes, delicious food.
@RalphSam thanks, I hope it's enough attractions to entertain my kids.
Oh, if you're traveling with young kids, then I might suggest Kaohsiung's riverside area with the museums, art galleries and night lights. Especially on the weekend. It's maybe more family friendly.
@@RalphSamthank you. I will research more cos I think I saw a Arts and Science museum or something.. forgotten if it's Taichung or Kaoshiung 😅
Check out Kaohsiung Pier 2 Art Center. They often have exhibits for kids. Lots of riverside activities as well. You can also visit the pagodas, etc. :)
hi! what’s the name of the vintage jewelry store? thanks 🤍
Hi! The name is in chinese, but on google maps you can find it right next to 'Turbid Drip Cafe' 😊
I probably missed it but which hotel did you stay?
Also, where is that scenic walk at 7:48 ? Thank you!
Manho Hotel ✌🏻
And the riverside area is called Green River Waterfront Landscape Trail on google maps. Right beside Miyahara. 💚
@ thank you so much! Will be using your vid as reference..
@RamenAnytime awesome! 🙌🏻
The eggs in the bento are not tea eggs. They are marinated or braised eggs which are different from tea eggs.
May I know the name of the hotel you stayed in Taichung?
Sure, it's Manho Hotel 😊
hello may i know what is the camera you used to take a picture of Ralph at 17:51?
hi, i shot with an olympus mju ii 📷
thank you so much, I love your videos and awesome pictures :)@@RalphSam
thank you too! 😊
hm po mga negative films sa kanila? ang mahal kasi dito satin, or same lang din po price?
Around the same price as Manila but cheaper in Japan actually due to exchange rate 👍🏽
Please tell us what the hotel,was to stayed in
Manho Hotel 👍🏽
@@RalphSam any possibility you have a contact phone number for Manho Hotel? We would like to call them. Did you use any other hotels in Taiwan you liked?
Can you tell me the name of the hotel you stayed? Thank you
man ho hotel 😊
I’ve been trying to book there, but unable to reach them. I’ve been unable to locate a good phone number or web address.
