Dear Taiwan Podcast

Exactly what the title says, deep thoughts on small ways Taiwan has changed in the past ten years, for the everyday lives of people who live here. Responses from Reddit too! I'm coming up on ten years living here, so the next few episodes will be musings and mulling all about a decade on this beautiful island. A sense of achievement, or midlife crisis? Let's see.

A quick look at this weekend's holiday, the fun and showy Dragon Boat Festival! Delicious steamed zongzi to eat, boat races to cheer on, eggs to balance, and an ancient poet who committed suicide in a river. Send us an email at [email protected]!

With Teacher Matt on the line again as our guest from Taichung, we chat about the current Covid-19 happenings in the country (couldn't help it) before diving in to long discussions about five more things we noticed about Taiwan when we first moved here. Pro-tip: only pour warm water on cockroaches and stray dogs, never cold. Send us an email at [email protected]!
