I went to Taiwan for two months early in 2009. It was an amazing trip, and I took lots of photos.

A typical Taiwanese street. In Tainan

My friend’s place where I stayed

We got some delicious cakes and went up and sat on a roof to munch on them

Riding bikes in the backstreets at night

The coastline

Candy coated strawberries at nightmarket

Guavas!..I think..

The southern part of Taiwan has some really amazing beaches

The water was beautiful

..and warm enough to swim in!

The sand was super soft

Water and rock

Kaohsiung

Our driftwood fueled beach party bonfire

Backflip!

This is our Taiwanese friend we met when we randomly saw him doing parkour at the park where we were doing parkour. He recognized me from one of my freerunning videos. :D Super nice guy. Kash vault

Hiking up a mountain hoping to see some monkeys

…and we found a bunch!

Wise old monkey

This one was very angry with us. Scary

Eyeball drink (bubble tea)

There were fireworks going off everywhere during a lantern festival. It was like a war zone. This was the scene outside the restaurant where we were eating. I enjoy the distressed lady covering her ears. :D
