Hi, I’m Bessy, your local host in Taipei! I’m always up for an adventure, whether it’s uncovering hidden gems in the city’s vibrant neighborhoods or diving into its rich history. Taipei is a place where the past and present blend seamlessly—from the centuries-old streets of Dadaocheng to the neon energy of Ximending. I have a deep love for Taiwan’s tea culture and a passion for sharing the fascinating stories that have shaped this city. You’ll often find me exploring museums, savoring street food at bustling night markets, or wandering through Jiufen’s misty alleys. Whether you’re looking for history, culture, or the best local eats, I can’t wait to show you a side of Taipei you’ll never forget!
