not a coworking space but ecole cafe is amazing for working

nrlmpy looks solid! added it to my cafe-list.co|Cafe list> (can only be opened through google maps app cause it’s too big)

how do I open it in the app?

doesn’t google prompt you to open via the app ?

it does but doesn’t open the list, at least on iphone

hm odd

👋 A software engineer here, based in SF/the Valley, but will be in Taipei in a few hours.

Any recommended cafe or co-working space with good internet around Wanhua District and Taipei 101?

aofddygr hi, we are 2 ( a couple ) coming end of November. We are looking at Airbnb now and it's really expensive.
What's the minimum lease period in Taiwan? Where did you find the apartment?
Since we are 2 I suppose it will not work for you to have us as roommates

vpwpgllgo late reply but yes, a good chunk is permanent standing height, an another chunk is permanent normal sitting height

Hi. I'll be arriving in Taipei on Thursday and will be around for a month. Definitely up to do some co-working.

Happy to connect :)
I just signed up for The Hive for one month to try. If you visit can definitely meetup for coffee or lunch.

I was also considering joining the Hive for a month. How are you finding it U04TGEBUU58?

Can anyone here recommend a scooter rental in Taipei that rents to foreigners? (I have an international license)

Seems quite difficult to find a shop in a city with a million scooters. Cheers ✌️

Hello Digital Nomads!

I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to let you know that I've just touched down in Taipei today and I'm excited to be here as a digital nomad. I'm currently staying at No. 61, Zhengyi S Rd, Sanchong District, New Taipei City, Taiwan 241, and I'll be calling this place home for the next few weeks.

I'm really looking forward to getting to know this incredible city and its culture. If anyone is interested in hanging out, sharing a coffee, or exploring some of Taipei's hidden gems, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I'm particularly open to morning meetings during workdays.

Let's make the most of our time in Taipei together and create some amazing memories! :blush::earth_asia::city_sunset:

Cheers,

Hey, does anyone have any recommendations for a phone number with a data plan in Taiwan. Just need something for 2 weeks to a month or even longer is fine.

Grab it at an airport kiosk. Two weeks is 700 NTD and 1 month is 1000. Unlimited and fast.

Sweet, do you know what it’s called? was it before baggage or after?

I think it was chunghwa and it’s after

thanks!

do they do esim? 👀

🛬 miiscmwaafltxaxyk just arrived in 🥟 Taipei, #taiwan

I got a regular sim but a mate of mine runs a company where they do esims nolimitsonline.com/esim/taiwan/|https://nolimitsonline.com/esim/taiwan/

🛬 htrvvktulwabaxjef just arrived in 🇹🇼 Taichung, #taiwan

can i come too? 😄

🛬 loeyqcwwhiclgefcb just arrived in 🇹🇼 Kaohsiung, #taiwan

there are quite a few esim options out there I used airalo.

Airalo is 10GB max a month. So if you have heavy data needs, better off just getting an esim through the local carriers since they are unlimited.

To anyone considering going to Taiwan and staying a longer time don’t sleep on Kaohsiung. It’s much cheaper, more modern, much less crowded and also more artsy than Taipei. Taipei weather is shit as well. Kaohsiung has 300 days of sun in a year. I stayed in Taipei for a month and right now in Kaohsiung for 5 days, I am loving it here. Will never return to Taipei knowing this city is also in the country. Might help people making up their minds on where to stay in Taiwan ✌️

how do your lungs feel tho

Air quality indeed is worse in comparison to Taipei but it’s not that bad if you compare it to other big cities in Asia I’d say. Air in Seoul & BKK felt worse than here

yeah that is a very fair point, even looking at AQI it seems like its the industrial parts and not so much the main city

Yeah true! If you haven’t visited, I’d recommend it for sure to give it a try

Bro stop letting the secret out 😅

I'm bummed i just came from alishan and went straight through, no idea why i didnt stay a night

There's a couchsurfing meetup at Revolver bar tonight in Taipei if anyone's interested

the mountains are kind of far though. Taipei has shit weather BUT at least it has a lot of trails. that is obviously irrelevant if you don't like hiking though 😄

What do u guys mean by shit weather in Taipei? 😅 I just got here a week ago, its been warm but fine for me? Nice and cool in the evening.

It’s cloudy and rainy often. Taipei gets the same amount of sunshine per year as London.

Cheers for the heads up oqjufosovfz is this based on your experience on a full 1 year stay?

It’s based on stats

O really? haha I've had the opposite experience :sweat_smile:. I'll find out!

Keelung is even rainier if you venture out there

🛬 jluybunzpepjws just arrived in 🥟 Taipei, #taiwan

it's less sunny than London. 1400 hours vs. 1600

<@U04V0G5NUP6> well not a full-year stay but my experience was that it was cloudier more often than not both in winter and in summer

Hi all, I've just arrived in Taipei and loving it so far. We're here for two weeks so if anyone wants to catch up for a coffee/beer/sightseeing/something cool let me know
Cheers

Let me know if you guys are passing through Taipei despite the poor weather :sweat_smile:, I'm working daily from WORKSPOT co-working on Zhongxiao!

Depends a lot of the hostels. She should try to find some smaller hostels. Read the comments to see if it's seems to be a social hostel, if they organise some stuffs. Also use meetup and facebook groups, or free walking tour.
