10D9N Taiwan Trip Free and Easy Itinerary 2017

"Taking a rest in order to walk an even longer journey."

"休息 是為了走更長的 路"

Ni hao! I had finally embarked on my first trip of 2017 and it is a trip back to the past to relive those fun days that I enjoy in Taiwan three years ago. This time around I had to utilise my carried-forward 5 days leaves from 2016 and what's better way to use it rather than using it to revisit Taiwan.
