America was, and is, a loser at the hands of China. Give the land back to the Indians
I’m very impressed with your insights on analyzing the possibility of CCP invading Taiwan. Especially confident with your analysis due to your former military background and real combat experience. Not to say that Taiwan should let their guard down but instead your reasonable statement can enhance our confidence to further strengthen our defense capabilities, also, hope some Taiwanese can stop listening to those untrusted rumors from unreliable sources.
After just watching your first video, I can tell that not only you appreciate arts but perhaps you may have some unrealized artistic talent as well. ❤
Lastly, I wanted to welcome you to Taiwan to start another chapter of your life journey, and glad that you enjoyed living there so far.
你是第一個說出台灣像是中國和日本生的小孩，很驚訝也很開心你是這樣細膩的人，希望你能再探索台灣的人事物，
等著看你更多的見解
這是有趣的見解
確實形容得很貼切
中國就像只提供種的老爸 對家庭與孩子漠不關心甚至惡言相向
而台灣就像從小被日本媽媽一人帶大的孩子
其實我也是這樣想
立刻想到 APH XDDD
版主語言聲調感覺像在電視裡的英文教學，非常適合大眾傳播媒體業
Thank you!
你說話的語速不疾不徐，是我學習英語的好方法，謝謝你。
Thanks!
大家都是来学英文的哈哈

My favorite passage from this video:
"any country that lets its artist bloom, that's a really good sign of a good place to live."
Indeed, like magnets, this country, this city, and people with connotation and artistic vision attract each other...
最喜歡這部影片的一段話：「一個能讓藝術家發光發熱的國家，就是一個適合居住的國家」。的確就像磁鐵一樣，這個國家、這個城市，與有內涵、有藝術眼光的人，互相吸引著彼此⋯。
Thank you!
Agree
我也最喜這句話
幸好有良好的中英字幕讓更多台灣與外國人透過這頻道了解台灣，中英文幕，也讓想學英文的台灣人更有興趣，期待之後到台灣其他地方探索的影片
Topher版空中英語教室🎉
不得不說真的很適合拿來學英語😆
Welcome to Taiwan. I'm glad to hear you compare Japan with Taiwan. Japan is indeed a very clean and safe country. We are somewhat similar to Japan because we were colonized by Japan before. Many of my grandmother's generation grew up under Japanese education, so you will see that Taiwan still retains a lot of Japanese architecture and culture. When Japan's economy took off in the early days, it had a strong cultural influence on Taiwan. Even now, many people are still crazy about Japanese-made technology products, Japanese dramas, animations, video games, toys, cosmetics, food, etc. These influences still exist today. In addition, Taiwanese people’s favorite country to travel abroad is Japan, and many people have business dealings with Japan. The two countries are basically in a friendly state. I believe there is a lot that the two countries can learn from each other.
Please, pretty please, say, “We were Europeanized by Japan. We were put on the world map by Japan. Japan built the foundation of Taiwanese sovereignty. Taiwan is “made-in-Japan”. Taiwan is Japanese to the marrow. The soul of Taiwan is infused with Bushido. When Japan surrendered, the last batch of high school graduates deemed themselves Japanese from the Japanese island of Taiwan. When Japan surrendered, Taiwan (& Penghu) was legally as Japanese as Hawaii would become American in 1959.”
How do you think Manchuria, Mongolia, Xinjiang became Chinese? China does not conquer by the strength of its weapons. China sends its tired, poor, huddled masses yearning to breathe free, wretched refuse of her teeming shores, the homeless, tempest-tost to conquer China’s lebensraum. Next China uses the soft power of her culture to assimilate the “savages”. Keep the Darién Gap open, and California will go the way of Manchuria.
The early Truman administration was a carry-over of the Moscow agents-infiltrated FDR administration. American useful idiots unloaded Chiang “Peanut” Cash-my-check on Japanese Taiwan and 2 million illegal Chinese immigrants overwhelmed Japanese Taiwan, population 6 million back then. With a reluctant nod from the US, unlawful Chinese settlers Sinicized and de-Nipponized Japanese Taiwan.
Owing to Kim Il-sung’s invasion of South-Korea, President Truman suddenly remembered that, if the Chinese already ON Japanese Taiwan were occupying Japanese Taiwan, the US was nonetheless the “principal occupying power” ON Japanese Taiwan. And John F. Dulles prevailed on Shigeru Yoshida not to cede Japanese Taiwan to China, to any China.
If gauged by the looks and sounds of a recently but ruthlessly Sinicized political and unlawful Taiwan, the ties that unite legal and spiritual Taiwan and Japan seem as tenuous as wisps of smoke. But try cutting through smoke wisps.
好喜歡你的個人風格，有趣的靈魂除了那與生俱来善良與慈悲，還具有豐富學識和愛。祝福在台灣日子裡平安快樂。
覺得你的頻道百分百適合學英文，很多外國YT的頻道只有中文沒有加上英文字幕，希望你的頻道可以做久一點喔🎉🎉
Thank you!
沒錯 聽過很多人說最花時間是字幕 尤其他還是雙語字幕
Just came back after vacationing one month in Taiwan for the first time. My first and foremost impression is the feeling of complete safety everywhere I went. I was amazed to see the locals leaving their belongings in public places (e.g. helmets on scooters, bags on tables in food courts while they go to the washroom). I am from Canada which is a decently safe country but we would never consider leaving valuables in public places like that. Other positive impressions are the courteous and helpful people, especially those who are in the service professions. The food scene is also amazing - combination of variety, quality, creativity, and affordability. The public transportation system (MRT, local trains, high speed trains, and tourist shuttles) are affordable and efficient. Not so positive impressions are lack of sidewalks in most of the older neighborhoods, the smell of stagnant drainage just about everywhere, and the mild level of smog in most of the cities. Overall the positives far outweigh the negatives. I would definitely revisit Taiwan in the future.
Yes, Taiwan can improve their plumbing and the pollution situation. Still, it's an amazing place!
Thank you so much for your great compliment of Taiwan, also thanks for telling the truth of inpositive side. We do appreicate all of your foreigners' truth opinions to Taiwan, not only compliments, but also the bad sides or shortcomings.
I have passed your comments to the party of government so they will post to every city hall or mayor of Taiwan to make more improvement for the city.
You've notice a extraordinary aspect of Taiwan, which is all of us leave our stuff even like ipad, cell phone, car rings and even wallet while we leave the seat.. actually, I did loss my wallet several time in a coffee place or such like restaurant for couple hours, and I can always get it back without missing anything! Always!
Even until now, it still surprise me..
中國和日本的孩子😂😂😂
這是非常有趣的比喻😂，但很貼切！
喜歡你偶爾的幽默逗趣👍
這譬喻真的好有趣！用但我比較想當日本的孩子 🤣🤣🤣
Topher講話的語速和風格真的讓人很感到放鬆愉快~
尤其是即時彈出的英文字幕更是一大亮點~超棒
談吐中感覺你也是一個很幽默的人~
希望有機會在高雄不期而遇~
不少有意思的看法
覺得您有很優秀的觀察力
是軍官職涯訓練出來的嗎? 或者是天賦?
"中國與日本生出來的小孩"
真的是相當貼切
BTW很高興你喜歡台灣
當然還有我們高雄這個港都
非常Chill的語速
在這個什麼都追求效率的年代很棒
it's calm me down
Thanks!
高雄真的是越來越漂亮，台中人表示羨慕❤
台北人更羨慕
台北人羨慕+1
影片看的很舒服沒压迫感會讓我心靜下来
Thanks!
很喜歡你拍片的風格，字幕呈現的方式也很棒喔！
Thanks!
Unlike most Americans, you speak very slow and clear English which really help people understanding your videos (your students are lucky to have you as teach). I used to live in kaohsiung for almost 12 years after my military service and considered it as my hometown. Have been living San Francisco for almost 30 years, I am still missing kaohsiung and friends who live there. I believe you made a right choice.
Hello Topher
You're really a typical
American
Kind, straight ,considerate
and courteous.
For examples
You talk clearly and slowly, so as a non-English speaker
of Taiwanese we understand without any difficulties what you said
This is the key point of your success
Everytime after finish watching I immediately
forward it to my friends relatives and all groups appr.3000
People
Majority of them like it
Uncle Topher,you're doing great please keep doing this way we all enjoy you and your video ,hope you can live in taiwan for a longer time.
We all love such a great friend becoming part of big Taiwanese family
Enjoy your new life and
Do more videos. Alex
Thank you!
I'm a Taiwanese. When i was young always dream to move to other country. But never brave like you to do it. But after more than 30 years backpack travel to quite some countries, i really appreciate my luck to be born here. Now i know- the normal daily life for us, in some countries, it' just a dream hard to make it.
Kaoshung is a city full of passion. Every time when i visit there, even i'm a taiwanese, still quite touched by it.
Glad to see so many art in ur video, make me feel i should pay a visit again.
Tks for sharing & welcome.
Thanks! The first step in any journey is usually the hardest.
你現在知道台灣的好並不晚😊
有中英雙字幕🎉而且是跟著口語一字一字浮現的。上字幕很辛苦的，謝謝您
訂閱了❤歡迎來到台灣
中文字幕翻譯上有些問題，從學英文的角度來說，會建議忽視中文字幕。
這語速我真的非常喜歡。
對於英文程度不好的我👍👍👍👍尤其搭配上中文字幕，真的太好了。
歡迎你移居台灣👍 選擇高雄或台中是對的 台北天氣常下雨哈哈 希望你發覺更多台灣的美麗 分享給國外的朋友 讓國際知道有一個國家叫台灣😊
Thank you for speaking softly and slowly. So that I can understand every word you say , without reading English subtitles. Welcome to Kaohsiung Taiwan❤
你咬字清晰，語速不快不慢，而且內容言之有物，非常適合我學習英語。非常感謝🙏！
謝謝你對台灣的讚美與喜愛❤但台灣其實還有滿多缺點的…只是我們確信…我們愛台灣的這一群人…將持續帶領台灣走向更民主進步的國度❤在全世界民主陣營裡…我們愛好和平…持續為全球貢獻最大的力量❤🎉😊
不知道你是否定居在高雄，但是歡迎來高雄唷~
高雄市總共有八百六十多個公園，超大公園、有特色公園、親子共融公園，大概有數十個
高雄很大，有山、有河、有海邊、有港口，相信能讓你探索很長一段時間。
這是一部讓我覺得舒適沒有壓迫感的影片。語調、音樂、內容都是讓人覺得放鬆
這種類型，會火紅喔
我們大家都希望能學到更實用的生活英文
I'm glad you listened to my opinion and changed your radio equipment. Many people in Taiwan have a strong rejection of China, so they will react more fiercely when they hear about things related to Taiwan and China, which is related to the history of Taiwan. Please don't worry too much about it.😂
Thanks for the tips!
You arrived here in colder weather. It’s still quite hot in summer.
@johuiko8418 him arrived 6 month ago him got time to feel the kaohsiung summer, but him don't know yet that winter in North taiwan its more cold and cloudy.
謝謝！聆聽一位有許多旅行經驗的朋友，是很好的事情。
說話速度緩慢感覺平易近人
影片制作風趣幽默
讓我想一看再看
感謝你🙏對 城市與國家的介紹與推展
臺灣是擁有臺灣式幽默的一種族群，對正面的事盡力做好，但對還沒做到完整極致的事，則享受漸漸變好的過程，這是一種自樂的人種幽默😊
Thank you so much for sharing. Taiwan looks like a place of tranquility.
我喜歡影片裡有安排出現獅子娃娃,還有其他影片出現的猴子跟鴨鴨,覺得好可愛,像在看卡通影片.喜歡日常生活安靜開心分享的頻率.祝福你在臺灣永遠有家的歸屬感.
看你的影片能順便學英文，很棒❤
Watching your videos is one of the best ways to learn English ，I will follow you ❤ BTW I am Chinese, thank you very much, have a good one 🎉
Thank you! 😃
講話慢 單字清楚 適合學英語 希望你在台灣一切 順心順利
很喜歡你的影片有中英文 好用心。謝謝 希望你在台灣平安快樂。
I am supporting Team Taiwan. Simply Taiwan is so precious...
I'm 36 years old. I have never met a robber in Taiwan in my life. It is a super rare event.
善良的人到善良的地方.台灣歡迎你.祝福你一切美好.
已經通知家人朋友訂閱你了，高雄人支持在地人❤
看到高雄的影片馬上先訂閱支持再說 👍👍👍
也許是年齡與經驗的因素，您的影片比許多年輕外國UA-camr 更具有生活感與分析的深度
可見你對於生活的追求與穩定是很紮實的，值得我們學習
歡迎來到南台灣，Happy New Year
現在南部會講英文的人也越來越多了，別擔心。街頭上的人都會幫助你的
Welcome to Taiwan! I wish you all the best and please enjoy your time here in Taiwan.😊
Thank you very much!
I totally agree what you said. I hope Uncle Topher have nice days in Taiwan, and let more people know about Taiwan by watching your youtube videos. Good luck.
I love your videos! It’s great for people who want to learn English. The subtitles are awesome!
Thank you! 😃
taiwanese are indeed very friendly, even more so than any other chinese-speaking area. they have better manners too, quite similar to those in japan’s kansai region. as someone from the mainland, I really envy such a social environment.
Wow~我可以學習聽跟說英文
Awesome!
歡迎來臺灣 ～順便推廣台灣謝謝！給你按👍
Your nieces and nephews are lucky to have an adventurous uncle like you! Kaohsiung is also my favorite city in Taiwan. Warm, not rainy, and not so busy.
The most of influencers herein Taiwan are Japan, USA and China, along with its history involving the Spain, Netherlands, France and Uk, as well as its labor policies of human resources from South East Asia such as Vietnam and Thailand, and its high percentages of business relying on international trade into all corners of the world , also its IT industry ranking as the top of the world that makes Indians are also into frequent travel or work here. So, Taiwan is unique to be in the convergence of cultures. Enjoy it.😙❤🌹
* By the way, one of the popular influencers through YT in recent years here in Taiwan is a group of 3 people from Gambia in Africa, also several from France, while all speak fluent local languages😉
希望可以拍攝下班時尋覓晚餐或是假日時逛街那種即興的風格，這樣應該很有趣，大家應該很想看看你如何適應當地的生活。
I like the speed at which you speak English.
I can almost understand it.
Thank U. 😊❤
You're welcome 😊
It's a perfect video for learning English, I can even pay for it, thank you for sharing this video.❤
Welcome to Taiwan! Let me know next time you take the HSR up to Taipei! ;)
I will! Thank you! Love your channel, great interviews!
也許可以參加自行車活動，有很多外國人 也有很多網紅～像是 小貝 也是來自美國猶他州，一定很開心有美國朋友一起，或是喜歡戶外活動的小飛，爬山涉水外國網紅也有，一般網紅都是拍美食紀錄或是戶外活動，很少看到這樣逛公園的😂😂😂
看影片順便學英文，太棒啦 ! 台灣像是中國和日本生的小孩 ，非常精確的說法 !
Hey uncle Topher,
Welcome to Kaohshiung, Taiwan where my hometown is. This video is In birthday park near my home, so I usually exercise over there. I believe that you will make many nice friends, have great the traditional Taiwanese food and have wonderful days in Taiwan. Enjoy your life in Taiwan. 😊
Hi uncle👍 It’s hard to ignore whether it’s because of your experience in the military, and the process of talking to yourself and traveling for a long time afterwards, which made you exude a calm and restrained atmosphere unconsciously. After watching all your videos (especially I like your English subtitles) Those experiences are very convincing through your discussion and voice. Looking forward to making more videos about your life in Taiwan from your perspective
Peace and peace🫡🫡🫡
Wow! Thank you so much! I'm very grateful for your support! 🙏😁 I hope you have a great week!
Your pronunciation is very attracted me, though I am 65 years old man, through your video I can learn much fluent English, it helps me to talk to the people when I travel all over the world.
I feel funny to myself, because many common things looks so ordinary and usual through my eyes, but become beautiful and special in your videos. I think I really need to learn how to appreciate everything happened around me and understand they're cherishable😊
謝謝分享；平安喜樂，順心如意。
期待第三支影片😊👍
I was provoked laughter by your use of the little stuffed toy lion, amusing!
我剛經過被你英文方式吸引進來，我會讓我英文進步😂😂！訂閱按讚
美國叔叔以前保護美國人民安全辛苦了，現在台灣回饋給你滿滿的安全感。
I like watching your videos due to I can learn English in the American way. Thank you so much, uncle Topher!
Your speaking English speed reminds me of "Studio Classroom",hahahaha~~~
*Studio Classroom is one very famous and very long term(almost over 60 years) English teaching class on radio and now also on internet in Taiwan.
有中英文字幕真好! 歡迎來 台灣!玩得開心!
從Lucas頻道來的，抱歉我英文不好，希望您能看懂中文！真心覺得美國豆腐叔叔的聲音好好聽！和活潑好動美國Ytr不太一樣，希望可以留在台灣久一點，不要被台灣的不完美嚇到（我們的下水道超大隻蟑螂已經進化到全世界特有種）
歡迎你來台灣，一定讓你愛上台灣❤
I still want to remind you that while there are many friendly people in Taiwan, it doesn’t mean there are no bad individuals or scammers. If someone tries to approach you and say something, remain cautious. I’ve seen cases of foreign UA-camrs letting their guard down due to Taiwan’s generally safe environment and falling victim to scams. I hope you can enjoy Taiwan’s safety without losing your vigilance.
尤其是二手車，二手摩托車市場，非常黑暗又坑人！
所以，在台灣買東西最好買新的！
安全，品質也很好！
👍😂
好棒👍很中肯。聽到你說台灣是中國與日本生的小孩，挺有趣的，蠻符合一些情況。
希望你在台灣可以過得平安 快樂喔！
我也覺得這形容很有趣
Haha 😂 很有趣+1
Uncle Topher 講話的語速、聲調、內容，聽了真是令人感到舒服。
Topher, I seriously thought you were Madison Bumgarner now playing for a Taiwanese team🤣. I am a Taiwanese who grew up in LA, and born in 高雄. I’m so happy for you that you’ve found your second home outside the States. Kaohsiungnese(?) are warm people just like its weather. Hope to see more of your videos 加油. Please get to the bottom of this monkey thing, it’s getting bananas out there🙏
🤣
Great and fuuny vid,love it!!!
Thanks!!
Great Taiwan-related channel. I loved how your narration quietly stresses the ties that link Taiwan and Japan. A resounding first from an American on Taiwan. Does the name Chase Hughes ring a bell?
Good to see your video.Have a good a time and enjoy yourself in Taiwan.kaohsiung ppl welcome you from the bottom of hearts.
Your way of talking very impressive. I think you will be next famous UA-camr in 🇹🇼 Taiwan
歡迎來台灣 台灣是很奇妙的地方 只要你呆上一段時間你就離不開了。
在台灣只要小心汽車還有摩托車，當你過馬路時，或走在路上，
獅子娃娃很可愛😊 希望它可以常常出現
Welcome to Taiwan. As someone born in Taiwan and lived in three western countries for over two decades, I'd say I can appreciate Taiwan even more after moving back here.
You are not so wrong about Taiwan being the child of China and Japan. As you probably learned the history of Taiwan, it was colonised by imperial Japan for 50 years before the end of WW2 so it's heavily influenced by Japanese culture. The messy aspects in Taiwan, are most likely inherited from the Chinese culture. This is not meant to be derogatory of China, but rather an observation of its culture.
Yea we love you uncle Topher❤❤ Welcome to Taiwan 🇹🇼
謝謝！
Thank you very much!!!
您對台灣的敏銳觀察力，中肯的敘述，加上來個小幽默，我想許多人看了您的影片便成為粉絲，看完了就期待把您所有影片全看完，也分享轉傳出去，恭喜您來對了台灣！讚啦！👍👍👍
美國叔叔可以來教英文了 我完全都邊看邊學 真的是講英文 講得太好了 我超喜歡
It’s my first time seeing English captions pop up along with talking 😮 ! You must be a very considerate and creative person. I will recommend your channel to my nephews and nieces who are learning English.
Thank you!
have a great time in Taiwan....keep following😊
Thank you! 😃
Uncle Topher , your taking are slow and clear very good for English learn by young persons.
我喜歡聽你講的美語，很清晰，節奏又不會太快，台灣的學生讓你教到會很幸福
看了你一些影片，你的所見所聞跟很多外國youtube的觀點不同，真的很棒
PS：台灣真的很好，完全不想要統一
光是對岸三不五時禁東禁西，禁止談論正確的歷史，禁止批評中央官員，禁止日、韓文化，禁止男性有女性特質，禁止同性戀，禁止BL寫畫性愛場面，我就無比慶幸我出生在自由民主的台灣
你在高雄😮，肯定會愛上台灣，因為高雄更適合生活
沒錯。
Yes, it is super rare. BTW, I can learn English through your channel. 👍🏼
繼續探索台灣 期待更多新視頻 加油!
Agreed! You really need to spend some time in Taiwan to truly appreciate its beauty. It's definitely a hidden gem in Asia.
祝順心愉快😊謝謝分享😊
''台灣很像是日本與中國生下的小孩''這句話真的形容得很貼切，有著日本的安全與乾淨，同時保留了很純的中國傳統文化以及繁體中文，我很推您講的這句話，以後或許可用在寫作上，感謝分享。
多謝您的讚賞.盛世台灣
真喜歡你唸的英文及聲調，學英文有收穫聽聲音也是享受，TKS。
台灣跟日本 歐洲不一樣的是中華文化 跟中文環境 這是外國朋友不瞭解的地方 我很喜歡你的影片❤
Thank you!
而且我們是正宗的中文👉繁體中文、注音符號。
