Expat Experiences in Taiwan
When considering a move to a new city, there is nothing more useful than hearing real life stories and experiences from other expats who have lived there. We'd love to hear about your expat experiences. Please contact us if you live or have lived in Tawian and would like to share your story.
Jenna, an American expat living in Taipei, openly confesses to drinking too much coffee and alcohol (often together); but if it means she continues to share the kind of insight she's afforded our expat audience in her interview - we say, "Keep up the good work Jenna!". She's lived in Taiwan for over five years, and we highly recommend you read what she has to say about expat life in Taipei.
Richard, a British expat living in Taipei, has moved to a slightly different beat since he relocated to Taiwan 18 years ago. Though he initially came to teach English, he now gives private piano lessons, and spends time freelance writing and editing. You may recognise him as the author of "Taipei Day Trips: I and II", and if not, all the better reason to familiarise yourself with the publications. Read what Richard's learned from nearly two decades of life in Taiwan.

Catherine, a Taiwanese American living in Taipei, is still sussing out exactly where she fits in; but is nonetheless, having an amazing experience doing so. She makes her bread and butter as a journalist for the Taipei Times, but takes true pleasure in maintaining her blog about daily life in Taipei. Read what she has to say about local culture and challenges of settling in in her expat interview.
