Moving to Taiwan this winter, where should I live??

You know you’ve been in Cali a long time when you think it even occasionally compares to Taiwan (or humid parts of the US)!

I don’t know what any of this means.

@TT also finds this confusing…

Some things have no meaning …

But what I do know is I went out riding my bicycle along the beach and I did one hour and 29 minutes total distance 7.02 miles average 4.7 mph for 234 active calories and total calories at 397 BPM 132 average elevation gain 210 feet weather is 10° Celsius but the humidity is 90% so who said we don’t have humidity.???


Is that because you are standing right next to the ocean? Regardless, it’s 10 degrees, and Ocean Beach never goes above 25 degrees even in the summers. I wonder what the humidity is in the Mission during the summers.

I imagine but 10 degrees C I find it surprising the humidity was as high as 90pct

Also when it rains in Taipei, it rains. It can be moderate to heavy rain all day long for several days in a row.

I don’t know why anyone has the idea that London is rainy… London has less than half the annual precipitation as Seattle and Vancouver. It’s actually a fairly dry city.

London is just unpredictable… the ocean currents bring in changing weather systems quite quickly. I’ve gotten drenched from the exactly 5 minutes of heavy rain between the tube station and my office, but it’s usually just that… a quick burst of rain and then nothing for the next two months except the occasional gentle sprinkling.

Living in the UK is like playing the tutorial level of a video game on easy mode.

Maybe try Taipei then Taichung then Kaohsiung or vice versa to experience all three before making a decision?

it’s the west that really gets me up in arms. All the other directions (and center) get their own province, but all West gets is a small township. It’s upsetting. And nevermind that Tainan is basically the most western Tai, and is also to the north of Taitung. It’s just a whole upsetting mess.
