January 2024
I love when I can exploit a long layover. I had a 14 hour layover in Taipei, and of course I left the airport. After I checked in at my Airbnb, I asked the host for a dinner recommendation. He suggested the night market, and there I went. I was a little frustrated at first because I couldn't figure out what was not meat since I couldn't talk at the stalls due to the language barrier and they only took cash. Google Translate was my best friend. Once I found an ATM, I let my senses lead me, and I picked up so many delicious snacks. I found a table and enjoyed trying all the new food before walking back to my room.
