Returning After 25 Years: A Mistake?

Twenty-five years ago, with a suspiciously useless university degree in hand, I moved nearly 8,000 miles away from everything I knew. No friends. No language skills. Just immediate, crippling culture shock. Today, I’m back. But this time, I’ve brought my wife and daughter to see if they can survive ‘real life’ here—not the tourist version, but the bustling, noisy, wonderful reality. Welcome back... to Taiwan. In this video, we leave our comfortable life behind to return to the island that shaped my 20s. We navigate the humidity of Taipei, the absolute chaos of the streets, its culinary delights and the busyness of the transit system. Join us as we experience life as the locals do in this home-coming (for David) and this cultural shake-up for Elizabeth and Grace!
