On the morning I was supposed to be leaving Taipei, I decided it would be a brilliant idea to do some laundry. I was catching a train to Hualien, a city on Taiwan's east coast, and figured I'd get everything washed, dried, folded and packed before checking out. Easy peasy. Just down the hallway from my room was a little laundry room with one washing machine and one dryer. Perfect. That's all I needed.

Today... funny enough... I had a food tour booked. And, as you can probably imagine, I was pretty excited about that. I was heading out into the streets of Taipei with Taipei Eats. I don't know the faintest thing about Taiwanese food. Nothing. I've never been to a Taiwanese restaurant. I have no idea what a Taiwanese specialty is. Really. Nothing. Absolutely Nothing.
