Upon arrival in Taipei, Alycia had a lucky moment and won 5000 Taiwan Dollars in a tourist draw at the airport, which gave her a nice bonus to spend on snacks and shopping. That’s a tidy sum of close to RM700! After landing in Taipei, Alycia and her friends hopped on a train to Tainan for a couple of days and then made their way back to Taipei.
I haven’t heard all the details of her adventures yet, as she’s been catching up on sleep since she returned early this morning after a long journey with no sleep for over 24 hours. They took a 12:45 am flight back, so she’s been out cold since she got back, waking up to eat her dinner, and then went back to sleep.
From the few updates she’s shared, Alycia had a wonderful time in Taiwan. During one of their trips to another town, their Uber driver treated them to cakes and Bingsu at a dessert shop—a sweet and unexpected gesture. Alycia didn’t miss the opportunity to shop, bringing home some cool Nike shoes and socks, and plenty of Taiwan snacks and facial masks to share.
It’s clear she had a blast, and she’ll be off again next month, this time to South Korea with another friend. I’m definitely feeling a little envious of her adventures!
My souvenir from Alycia was three packets of facial masks. She said they’re pretty expensive but I think it’s my ‘wages’ for helping her wash and dry her 7 days of dirty laundry! Definitely not a good deal for me! 😌
