Taiwan - Spectral Codex

Taiwan is a densely populated nation in East Asia with an incredible wealth of local culture, history, and natural wonders to explore. I first visited in early 2013 and moved to Taipei not long afterwards. In the fall I went on a bicycle tour all around Taiwan and got hooked. I’ve also spent some time living in Taichung, Tainan, Changhua, and Taoyuan. Gathered here are some of my many explorations, observations, and impressions of life here in Taiwan.
