I’m thinking of moving to Taiwan and this blog is very useful. I looked in to the taipei hikers group and hope to have some nice hikes and meet new friends. Much appreciated! It’s possible I can email you with some other relocation questions?

Much appreciated!
Angel

Awesome, Kevin! We played a lot of board games with friends in Taiwan (especially Settlers of Catan) during the winter. Our town was too small for a board gaming group at the time, but that would’ve been amazing.

Hey James. Thanks, glad that you found it useful :)
Living in Malta sounds cool. What did you do for work there?
Best of luck with moving to Taiwan! We left Taiwan in 2013 after our year of teaching, but you’re welcome to ask us whatever questions you’d like!
Best, Charlie.

Great blog, very useful tips. Myself and my girlfriend have spent one year living in Malta after leaving Ireland, and want to move to Taiwan to teach English in February. Are you guys still living there? It would be great to ask you a few questions if that’s cool?

Cheers

James

Is it quite easy to get a language exchange in China do you know? Are there a lot of Chinese English speakers around? I guess all of these things depend on the area you’re living in, it must vary a lot in China.

I can totally relate to them. It’s pretty much the same with making friends with Chinese. You need to get familiar with workmates first, then hang out with Chinese, go out, have some dinner and join QQ which is Chinese version of Facebook!
