Streetview

This photo was taken 30June.

The word "motorscooter" in Chinese translates to "motor-vehicle/motor-car".  In English, I'm more used to calling them "motorcycles".  I have never seen an American motorcycle in Taiwan.


This view is familiar to me: company signs jutting out, other motoscooter, but this particular picture has few people in it.

There are many inexpensive food places here.  There are so many informal (and formal) sit-down restaurants, and vendors out.  It's basically impossible to go hungry.
Almost every morning (7AM) there are merchants selling super fresh fruits, vegetables, and meats.  The fruits and vegetables and fish might have been picked earlier in the morning, and the chickens are alive in cages.  I think that the farmer's markets are lively; I like them.
An 8 piece vegetarian sushi costs about 4-5$ in Maine, but costs 40yuan (about 1.50$ here).
Cafe's seem to be popular here with 18-30 year old.

I've found that many people here do not wait.  For example, someone is more likely to stay a few moments to hold open a door for you, whereas this doesn't happen (often) in Taiwan.
