I did not see shops as nice in Taiwan (indoors) for a milk tea shop, though coffee cafes are nice in Taiwan. And people in the region tend be thin like in Taiwan and less fat than some other nations, therefore good looking to me as I like thin (some do not).
Not hot to you (Weather wise maybe was 23, at night though its colder than Kao winter), more like a day around New Years in Kao-Ping/ Taitung. The green grass maybe will go away in October (I will be back in Fall and see!), the growing season is short. (Cold and I guess no sunlight is also a factor in winter) though lots of evergreen trees.
haha, I did not pay attention to the nose, just very few people with back hair, and people quite slim like Japan. Also cheap prices to eat, more so as Yen gets stronger. The other thing that stands out how clean things are, was not expecting that. And last weather can change fast from blue sky to this
