Taiwan Day 1: Trains, Spicy Food & Our First Impressions

We made it to Taiwan! 🇹🇼 After a very early 3 AM wake-up, we flew from Bangkok to Taiwan to start our next adventure. What seemed like a simple travel day quickly turned into navigating airports, an unexpected second security check, figuring out Taiwan's railway system (with the language definitely working against us 😅), and finally checking into our hotel. Of course, no first day would be complete without trying local food—and we were warned before we even sat down that everything was spicy! 🌶️ In this vlog: ✈️ Our journey from Bangkok to Taiwan ☕ Airport stories, VAT refund tips & my Starbucks order 🚆 Navigating Taiwan's train system 🏨 Hotel room tour 🌶️ Our first Taiwanese meal 📱 Searching for a SIM card 💻 Balancing travel with building Rumata If you enjoyed the video, don't forget to like, subscribe, and follow along as we explore more of Taiwan! 📍Chapters 00:00 Intro 00:26 3 AM Wake-Up Call 01:03 Off to the Airport 01:46 Airport Coffee & Travel Stories 03:21 Time to Board! 03:52 Landing in Taiwan 04:15 Lost in Taiwan's Train System 08:54 Hotel Room Tour 10:13 Taiwan's Spicy Welcome 12:50 Searching for a SIM Card 14:09 Catching Up on Work 16:40 What's Next in Taiwan
