Well. I visited quite a few places and spent 2 nights at a hostel in the city. The hostel has a comfortable bed and nice showering facilities. For the first time in a week, I got to sleep on a bed. The cost to stay is 1030 NTD for a single room per night, rates are cheaper if you are willing to share room. Check it out here. A rather interesting stop over place because you get to meet people from all over the world there.

On the first night at Taipei, we were at RM18, a local nightclub. It's a little different from those we have in Singapore. A little smokey (no-smoking is not that strongly enforced in Taiwan) and really cramped. But we had loads of fun and were dead tired when we reached the hostel the next morning. Drinks were more or less the same as that of Singapore. But we were pretty high, possibly due to the alcohol and continual passive smoking.

The next day, we decided to visit a hotspring at Beitou. We have ourselves to blame for being cheapos and choosing the public pool (40NTD) over the private ones, the water was scalding hot and really unbearable.

And the last day of the weekend was spent with Chen Ee shopping at Xi Men Ting - bad mistake, she is a closet shopaholic - and then finding the other AIESEC'ers, we visited taipei 101 in the night. Thanks to the incessant photo-taking by our 2 ladies of every icon on the streets, we did not go up the tower as paying 400NTD was unworthy for half an hour left of viewing time.
