I was born and raised in Taipei. I love interacting with local people when traveling, and getting some recommendations about where to eat and where to have fun. When I travel to a new city, I try to find the best hidden gems to get lost in and most of the time it is a good way to see a different side of the city. Let me help you in the same way to find the best parts of my vibrant city. If you can't find tours that you like please feel free to contact us.
