Taipei // Taichung on Film

From our Airbnb to the hills of CingJing. Taken with a fujifilm disposable camera.

Yolo. (literally).

Taiwan 2018 ~ Back in Taipei // Megane

Megane = Spectacles.

I managed to squeeze in travelling from Taichung to Taipei and some cafe time before I had to be at the airport. Yay to later flights.

It was so peaceful and comforting to be there, I didn’t want to leave.

And now my official favourite cafe is a 4-hour flight away…

 

Taiwan 2018 ~ Of Cats and Hidden Lanes

One of the joys of travelling, and especially travelling solo, is being open to unexpected changes to your plans.

I met a cat in a stationery shop.

I looked for “Hidden Lane Cafe” and ended up in a different “Hidden Lane”, but still enjoyed my time exploring the area nonetheless, and ended up getting a nice gift for a friend at one of the nearby shops.

It all works out. Eventually.

Taiwan 2018 ~ Mojo Coffee

It was Day 8 of the trip. Back to cafe hopping in Taichung city.

“Big things often happen in the little moments” – such a calligraphy-worthy quote!

 

Taiwan 2018 ~ SunMoon Lake

Following CingJing, it was Sun Moon Lake. I would have liked to spend a longer time here, longer than just 2 too-short hours! Did not manage to complete all ferry stops.

Taiwan 2018 ~ CingJing Farm

Not hard to see why this was one of my favourite places in the trip.

There’s nothing quite like walking in silence on your own, without another person in sight, on a sky trail in the mountains.

Taiwan 2018 ~ Day 5 TaiChung

The solo leg of my trip started. I had never been to Taichung before, and thought this would be a good time as any to do my solo trip.

First cafe in order: Lightbeam. Thank you Google Maps.

Taiwan 2018 ~ Day 4 Elephant Machine

Was an hour early. This is what happens when you don’t check your social media before going to a cafe.

I’m glad to say… the time spent there was worth the wait.

A cool respite from the city’s heat! Loved the journey and scenery.
