Hello,
My girlfriend and I will be heading to Taipei for a month in February, and we’re trying to figure out where to live. Any advice on…
We’re on a budget, looking for something that would be around $400usd per month if possible.
RE: SIM card
If you ask in 7/11 in English they can point you in the right direction if they don’t stock them. There’s a 7/11 near Taipei main station that has them. I got mine while inside the MRT area in Taipei main station from some cell phone accessory shop next to the 7/11. I think $10 or something for every 1gb refill, with first 3 days unlimited data. You need to bring your passport.
Your best bet is to look at places on AirBnb. There are a few hostels that have listings on there that are pretty cheap. I recently found a website for a place called InnApartment that looks pretty good too (innapartment.weebly.com) and I’m planning on staying there when I visit in March.
But overall, Taipei’s accommodation websites are local-focused and most sites are going to be in Chinese, which makes it hard to find places online.
Similarly, the coworking spaces are more focused on local startups and creatives, and again, most sites are in Chinese. Though I’ve heard of an up-and-coming coworking space called http://futurewardcentral.com/ and the founder seems to want to attract more digital nomads. There are also a few other options but I haven’t checked them out yet.
On the plus side, Taiwan has amazing infrastructure, fast internet, and you’ll be able to work from anywhere as it’s pretty much the coffee shop capital of Asia.
Oh and the food is other-wordly too. So more pros than cons 
Hey! Did you end up staying at Innapartment, how was It?!
Actually, we ended up looking on AirBnB, found a place with a good price and rented it for a month.
It was my girlfriend and I, so we had a few things we were looking for in particular… a private room big enough for both of us, a desk (since we were both working remote), decent internet, etc…
Lots of hosts on AirBnB give a discount for a month, so the price was pretty reasonable, about what we would have payed to rent a place on a student facebook group that we were trying to find something on. More importantly, getting our exact dates to line up with someone else’s exact dates ended up being impossible.
We stayed in Da’an, which we really loved. We were in a nice neighborhood right next to a night market and super close to the MRT (metro).
Taipei was our first stop, and afterwards we ended up using AirBnB to book month-long places in Japan (Osaka), Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand.
I would say that if you’ve staying for several months AirBnB may not be the best option price-wise, though you probably can send people messages to get further discounts. Since we were only staying a month, AirBnB was perfect.
Also, since it was mentioned…
We didn’t end up getting a co-working place, but it may have been nice to have. Compared to other places we went in Asia, it was REALLY hard to get a SIM card in Taiwan since neither me nor my girlfriend speak Chinese.
That said, people are really friendly. If you’re staying for a bit, it may be worth finding some other (Chinese-speaking) foreign people / Taiwanese people to help show you around and help you get a SIM card 
Taiwan was great, though, I can’t wait to go back. PM me if you have any other questions!

This Hostel Seems like a viable option for you guys:
Currently in Taipei for 3 months. Key is to be walking distance to an MRT (Metro) stop, as it is very fast and convenient. Honestly in that range I think it would be tough. I believe you can definitely find places in Taiwan in that range, but will be further away from the city center of Taipei. There might also be more options in other more Southern cities like Tainan.
My partner and I are looking at staying in Taiwan for the month of May, and were wondering if Taipei or Kaohsiung is better for living and working in? Our primary purpose will be working, so cheap food/accommodation (that’s relatively easy for a foreigner to find and obtain) and fast internet are our biggest priorities, but some sightseeing and nightlife would be nice. (I know Taipei has the latter, not as sure about Kaohsiung.) Thanks!
They’re pretty similar, but Kaohsiung has better weather, will be cheaper and have a better scene since it’s a little smaller and easier to meet people. People are more friendly also - Taipei’s a big city, a little self-absorbed, everything is too spread out so you never feel like going anywhere. If you go to KH, spend a few days checking out Tainan for the history.
Great question my BF and I are also looking into these 2 cities in May, as well, and leaning more towards Kaohsiung as it appears Taipei has more rain in May (but Kaohsiung is hotter, which we don’t mind). We have similar priorities/plans as it sounds like you do. Nomadlist does not list Kaohsuing as having very fast internet, but I wonder how accurate that information is.
From the few accounts I’ve heard, they were able to get fast internet. Maybe it just depends on being able to find the right place? I think we’re leaning toward splitting out time between the two cities, not quite sure yet.
I just stayed in Taipei for a month and visited Kaoshiung for four days. It seemed to me that many restaurants close very early in Kaohsiung and it was harder to get around because there are only two metro lines. They have a bikesharing system like Taipei, but it doesn’t work with the payment card for Taipei, so I didn’t use it. So overall it didn’t feel as “easy” as Taipei.
Regarding the internet speed; I guess it depends on what you define as “fast”. The wifi in the hotel I was staying in was worse than 4G on my phone. But I had the same in Taipei in a few places as well. And 4G was good enough for video calls, which is the most demanding use I had for my internet connection. If you need high bandwidth to transfer large files, this might not work for you.
Personally, I would probably get bored staying a whole month in Kaohsiung. If you haven’t been to either, I’d say go to Taipei and do a weekend trip to Kaohsiung. It’s super fast to get there by bullet train.
Thinking of dropping by Tawant for a bit - any friendly co-working spots in Taipei?
Yes try CLBC Flagshipb or CLBC Da’an! Say Pieter sent you and ask for Betty
Thanks, dropped by both CLBC locations. A local that works for AirBNB turned me on to CIT, which is a bit far out from central Taipei, but is a very cool space. I can recommend that one as well.
I’ll arrive in Taipei in april and need a place for at least couple of months but I’m not eager to rent something from seeing the online listing alone.
Any advice on good price points, location or trustworthy real estate companies and such is greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
I’m curious to know if it actually works. The website lists China and Taiwan as countries where it should theoretically work, I was just looking to hear from anyone using it first hand.
I heard something about Google being able to bypass the China firewall native in its software. Ie. built in vpn when using wifi and data? Is this true?
@entrepreneurish, I sent Project Fi a question about how VPN works on Project Fi phones. Right now, the phone will only use Google’s VPN when connected to an open WiFi network. The phone won’t use VPN when connecting to a cellular network. You can use a third-party VPN software, though, so you are always connected to a VPN regardless of being connected to WiFi or a cellular network.
I asked specifically about China but they didn’t answer that question.
If I’m understanding @psedillo correctly, it sounds like he used a third-party VPN. Perhaps he can share a little more detail about his VPN usage. I am definitely interested in knowing because I am considering getting Project Fi.
I can share my experience too now that I’ve tested it. Project Fi worked great for me in Beijing, no problems with email, social media, maps or the crm my company uses. I also had a 3rd party vpn installed and running (https://www.privateinternetaccess.com/).
Thanks for sharing your experience @maggie! I just got my invite, and I’m still making my decision. Are you using only WiFi or have you connected to a cell network for data?
Any chance you could move this question over to this thread:
Had it going for a couple months now.
FWIW, Fi works pretty well in Central America, so I can’t imagine it won’t work in China/Taiwan.
No problem Andrew, I’m headed to Beijing & then Taiwan next week. I’ll post my thoughts on how Project Fi works on your existing post.
@maggie Sorry for the delayed response returned late last week from Beijing and headed out to Portland a few days later.
As for Project Fi in Beijing, it worked flawlessly. I had no problems with cell service while there and used both WeChat (locals) and Messenger (friends & family) for texting.
WiFi is available around the city, so you shouldn’t have a problem connecting wirelessly. You will need a VPN to access any of the social media services. Also, China blocks Google so the VPN will handle this as well.
I hope the service performs well for you while in Beijing.
Thanks @psedillo. I’ll be there in about a week and half, just got my nexus 5x in the mail so I can test it as well and report back in case anyone else is curious.
I’m headed to Beijing next Wednesday and hope to receive my Project Fi phone before I leave. I’ll gladly let you know if it works in China (provided it arrives in time).
We have never been in Taiwan (a couple of travelers) and I am just wondering is possible to find there some quite clean place to hang for a while? How it is better to start? Are there any website’s for short and long term rentals? It looks like AirBnB is not that popular there. So it seems that usual tactics - rent hotel or airbnb for short term and then look for long term just driving around might not work. It looks like everything there in Chinese - so if there are any tips how to overcome this - that is more then welcome 
Overall just interested in any suggestion - where best to go first? Also is it hard to extend your stay there - we are digital nomads - so working for some company overseas and probably will be extending as a tourist (If we like there).
Sorry for so many questions - but this is really some terra incognita for me
No worries … The whole CorVis19 is causing issues in the whole region… maybe better to stay put in the short term
I’ve been in Taiwan for nearly a year … 3 month visa runs etc. How long are you staying for … and my experience is Taipei… so cant speak for the rest of the country much
Well we decided to go to Vietnam for now - not yet having any certain plan for Taiwan
I can offer my experience at least. I stayed at Meander hostel a few years back in a private room. It ended up being a great choice, it wasn’t crazy expensive and I was able to meet up with a lot of travelers just by chilling in the common room. Everyone was so friendly, I remember just sitting there and random people would start chatting with me and within minutes we were all taking a walk to the nearby night market. In addition to all the social aspects of the hostel, I had my own private room so I was able to stay productive. I only stayed for around 2 weeks though. Hope this helps!
