I know, usually I chat about the fun stuff like food, hikes, cute cafés, beaches, but today we’re looking into something a bit more “adult”: travel insurance for Taiwan. I’ve been traveling for almost 7 years now, either non-stop or on long trips, and for me, having travel insurance has always been a non-negotiable. Especially…
I honestly had no idea I’d end up loving Taiwan as much as I did. It wasn’t even on my radar this year, I just kinda ended up there because I needed a cheap flight out of the Philippines. But hey, here we are… and wow, Taiwan completely impressed me. In my opinion, Taiwan is…
I know, usually I’m talking about more fun stuff when it comes to the Philippines. But today, I want to take a moment to talk about something super important that has honestly become a non-negotiable for me when I travel. Whether it’s a quick 2-week vacation, a 6-month backpacking trip, or even living in Bali…
Alishan Forest, or officially, the Alishan National Forest Recreation Area, was honestly one of my favorite places on my whole Taiwan trip. Back in the day, this forest was mainly used for timber logging, especially the massive cypress trees. Over time, it was reforested and turned into what it is today: a beautiful mountain getaway…

The forest is famous for its ancient giant cypress trees, misty trails, and of course the iconic sunrise above the sea of…
When I was planning my trip to Alishan Forest in Taiwan, one thing kept coming up over and over again: the Alishan Forest Railway. Everyone talks about how it’s not just a way to get to Alishan, but an experience and a highlight all on its own. But honestly, trying to figure out how to…
The Alishan National Forest Recreation Area, or just Alishan Forest, as most people call it, is for sure one of my favorite places I visited in all of Taiwan. It’s a magical mountain forest area with beautiful hiking trails, ancient giant cypress trees, incredible sunrise views, and the super famous Alishan Forest Railway. The whole…
Traveling the East Coast of Australia was honestly one of the highlights of my LIFE!! Yes, I know that’s a big statement, but I stand by it. And I was especially pumped about Noosa. This little town on the Sunshine Coast is everything Aussie dreams are made of, morning surfs, coastal walks on the best…
I only recently visited Kaohsiung City in Taiwan and I was actually quite surprised by it, in fact, I’d say it’s a bit underrated. Kaohsiung is really different from Taipei, with its beautiful waterfront and harbor, loads of art (from street art to art museums), and some of the most stunning temples I’ve seen in…
