About my hometown I am from Taiwan. Many people asked me about my hometown, I always couldn't come up with words very soon. It's not because I am not familiar with my hometown, but understand Taiwan pretty well. Why is so hard to describe Taiwan? I think it due to the variety. First of all, languages, in Taiwan we speak Mandarin, Taiwanese, Hakka, and some of Aborigines' language. We also learn English when we are in very young age. Second, the religions in Taiwan are various. we have Daoism, Buddhism, Christianity, Catholicism and Islam. Then the food here, I have to say it is a mint! You can see "小吃" all around the city. Moreover, you can go to the night markets which I consider them as the most special things in Taiwan and it is also the places where you can find a lot of local foods or things here. Of course, I think I can talk about my hometown all day long. About the people, the transport, the life, the places to hang out...etc. If you wanna know about Taiwan further, be free to follow me. I am very happy to share. And there is a movie by Luc Besson called Lucy. Some scenes in Taipei, so if anyone has time, please click the following trailer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVt32qoyhi0

About my hometown

I am from Taiwan. Many people have asked me about my hometown and I couldn't always quickly come up with the words. It's not because I'm not familiar with my hometown, but because I understand Taiwan pretty well. Why is so hard for me to describe Taiwan? I think it's due to it's many varieties.

First of all, there are many languages. In Taiwan we speak Mandarin, Taiwanese, Hakka, and some of the Aboriginal language. We also learn English at a very young age.

Second, the various religions in Taiwan. We have Daoism, Buddhism, Christianity, Catholicism and Islam.

Then there's the food, which I have to say it is a mint! You can see "小吃" all around the city. Moreover, you can go to the night markets, which I consider them as the most special things in Taiwan, and these are also the places where you can find a lot of local foods or goods here.

Of course, I'm sure I can talk about my hometown all day long: the people, the transport, the life, the places to hang out, etc.

If you want to know more about Taiwan further, feel free to follow me. I'll be very happy to share.

There is a movie by Luc Besson called Lucy. Some scenes were filmed in Taipei, so if anyone has time, please click the following trailer:

About my hometown

I am from Taiwan. Many people have asked me about my hometown, I always couldn't come up with a sudden way to talk about my hometown. It's not because I am not familiar with my hometown, but I actually understand Taiwan pretty well. Why is it so hard to describe talk about ('talk about' is better here) Taiwan? I think it is due to the variety many varities of Taiwan (of my home country).

First of all let's talk about languages, in Taiwan we speak Mandarin, Taiwanese, Hakka, and some of Aboriginal languages. We also learn English when we are in very young age.

Secondly, the religions in of Taiwan are various. we have Daoism, Buddhism, Christianity, Catholicism and Islam.

Then there is the food here, I have to say it is a delicious mint ('mint' here in slang is correct but even I find this sentence weird haha)! You can see find "小吃" all around the city. Moreover, you can go to the night markets which I consider them as the most special things in Taiwan and it is also the places where you can find a lot of local foods or and other things here.

Of course, I think I can talk about my hometown all day long: About the people, the transport, the way of life, the places to hang out...etc.

If you wanna know more about Taiwan further, be free to follow me. I am very happy to share.

And there is a movie by Luc Besson called Lucy that have some scenes in Taipei, so if anyone has time, please click the following trailer.
