Hi everyone!

So in today's blog I'll be sharing about my short trip to Taiwan with my family last 5th of March until 9th of March 2018.

Many times my sister said : everyone went to Taiwan for more than a week but you guys just went there only for 4-5 days ... so short.

But what to do cause we actually went there not for like travelling but more for my eldest sister's wedding photoshoot.

_________________________________________________________________________________

5th of March 2018

🎀 catched early morning flight @ 6am to Taiwan [TPE] flew directly from Kota Kinabalu [BKI
🎀 early morning flight to Taiwan [6.15am]
🎀 landed in Taoyuan [est 10am]

🎀 the service for tourist was super friendly in taichung
🎀 then after 2 hours of cycling we went back to the starting point and took cab to 中社花市 to treat our eyes with the beauty of the flowers
🎀 done with flowers
🎀 we lost on our way back and what even better is that my phone battery died and we don’t even bring pin to eject the sim card  [die lo]
🎀 we spent maybe like an hour ++ cause we’re just taking the road over and over again and luckily we didn'n lost our way far from our stay

i supposed this shot is awesome pretty but i just didn't know why my mom want to capture that 2 person into my frame... anyway it shows us lots of people were there right ? hahahah!





you'll have to pay for the island entrance fee too 











it wasn't a good day to stay too long for island hopping hahaha cause after we returned on shore the skies just burst down in tears






we went back to our apartment to change cause we still have half day to spent well hahah but we didn't know where to "waste" our time and we just went to one of their mall named OCEANUS [if not mistaken] and it's new so some shops were not open yet BUT we even did furniture shopping during our holiday [how cool was that?]
