Life in Taiwan
Taiwan, my hometown, is
surrounding by ocean, have been called as Formosa. The first Portuguese
sailors saw Taiwan; they called it Formosa– “Beautiful Island” in 16th
century. Taiwan is much different than US in 21st Century. Such as the
culture, races, geography, and food. However,
to sum up there are two distinct different between Taiwan and U.S.
The first difference between
Taiwan and the U.S. is the convenience bring by space. In U.S. you can't go everywhere
without car, because the locations always to big from places to places. The
resources and information are hard to catch also. When I was in Taiwan
the transportation system is really organized. People can go everywhere by
public transportation .Buying and treasuring a car is hard to afford for most
of people, so they choose to buy scooters than buying a car.
The
second difference between Taiwan and U.S. is the night life. In Taiwan most of
the stores and shop open until 9 pm or 10pm. Department stores will open until
11pm. Especially Cities seems like never-sleep places. Our special
products are night markets. If you are hungry or get up at midnight but don't
know where to eat, night markets will always welcome you to visit. I miss all
the food in Taiwan in U.S. only 7-11 or some fast food shops will open overnight.
