15 Reasons Why I Like about Living in Taiwan

1.) The People - everyone here is always very kind and considerate. If you are lost, having a hard time trying to communicate, parking, or literally anything, people here are more than willing to give a helping hand.
2.) Manners - people in general are a lot more polite here.
3.) Church Family -  I felt very welcome in my new church and I love my new friends and church family.
4.) School - I was a little bit nervous to go to school (the only other time I went to school was in 7th grade)especially in a different country. I wasn't sure if it would be too hard or how I would like it, but I'm loving it so far!
5.) My Teachers - all my teachers are wonderfully and are helping me grow academically and spiritually. I'm so thankful for all they are doing. I'm very happy that they speak English as well. ;)
6.) School Friends - I have so many wonderful, fun friends at school! It makes school a lot more fun and interesting. :)
7.) Food! - fried rice, Chinese noodles, dumplings, bubble drinks, oh they are all so good! Actually, my whole family has been craving American food, but me? Nah! Give me the Taiwanese food! :D
8.) Night Markets - these are always fun to go to. Look in cool shops, eat good food and bubble drinks, and look around.
9.) Transportation - definitely thankful for the buses, MRT, and the scooters. It would be very difficult to get to school and back without them! And the scooter is way faster and easier to get around. It's fun to fly past all the traffic.
10.) Views - Taiwan quite beautiful, especially on the mountain. Looking down on the huge city is a breathtaking sight.
11.) The Beaches - of course! Love swimming in clear water with hundreds of fish swarming around you.
12.) Weather - sometimes a little bit hot, but overall, it's great weather! Nice and warm.
13.) Places - there are so many fun places to go and they are usually really cheap! I love going to the bowling alleys, and not to mention Taipei 101!
14.) Our House - our apartment turned out to be really nice! Not to mention we have a pool... (My dream! Lol!) very nice on hot days.
15.) The Langguage - even though I don't know Chinese and it's a super difficult Langguage to learn, I hope to learn some. Plus, it sounds really cool and the Chinese characters fascinate me.

    1. Haha! Well, yeah, I like it when it's not too hot and humid... And when it's not raining so much... So I guess I like the weather when it's good. :)
