Here's what I brought back from #Taiwan: the colourful cycling cap, the large box of pineapple cakes and the small box of crackers were presents from contacts within the bike industry, as was the LNY snack bag. Bought the Blacksheep cap and the Coffee socks at Cycling Fabro in #Kaohsiung and the small Taiwan Beer pouch at Pier2. And that Butterbeer mug has a built-in RFC chip and works as a T-Pass - very cool. Plus some nice chopsticks from TPE airport. #travel #FarEast

Super wet last day in #Taipei today. Still headed out to see Cycling Fabro Tianyu - possibly the most premium bikes hope I've ever seen. Seriously impressed by that one.
Annoyingly the airport MRT always gets stormed by commuters with zero luggage. Once you've safely stored your big-ass bags you can bet that all the seats are occupied by folks staring at their phones. Leaves a bitter taste upon heading for Taoyuan airport, really. Off to Europe it is. #Taiwan #travel #FarEast

After yesterday's massive downpours, the sun is back out in #Taichung. After checking out from my hotel and dropping my luggage there, I took a hike through the city's botanic garden. It does not compare to the one in #Chiayi, however. #Taiwan #travel #FarEast

Woke up to heavy rain in #Taichung on Saturday morning. Had a blast of a Friday night: first went for an excellent dinner at Holi Indian with a friend from the bike industry, then met with a bunch of buddies (three South Africans, two Frenchies and a Canadian) at iBrew Beer bar for some tasty craft #beer. Good times for sure! #Taiwan #travel #FarEast

Went to #Taichung's famous Miyahara store to buy a box of pineapple cakes, then stopped for a short lunch break at a very traditional stall at 2nd market: dry noodles and wontons in spicy oil for NTD 110.- in total, with half a pineapple, chopped up for NTD 50.-. #food #Taiwan #travel #FarEast

Contrasts throughout a day in #Taiwan regarding #food: started with a very typical TW-style breakfast in #Kaohsiung (that food is for three persons), had Ramen as a late lunch upon arriving at #Taichung's Highspeed Railway station and went to an excellent Japanese restaurant for sashimi and a seafood miso for dinner. Life is too short to eat crap. #travel #FarEast

Turns out #Kaohsiung's #Pier2 area has upped its #beer game massively: TW brewers 23Brew have opened a lovely little tap room, and the #BeerTalk beer bar simply is next level. Proper #jazz at a reasonable volume to allow for conversations and more good beers than you could try in one evening. Add peanuts, highly recommended! #Taiwan #travel #FarEast

On my way from #Taipei to #Chiayi, further down South in #Taiwan. On one of these speedy THSR trains. #travel #FarEast

This is #Taiwan in a nutshell: American-style nacho chips from #Doritos and a beer from #Japan (Orion's Mugishokunin) you'd hardly find outside of #Asia to cap off an evening in #Taipei. Loving it! #travel #FarEast #Asia
