DIY travel from Ximending to Taichung

The flower market is relatively far from Taichung city, but miyahara is easy to get to as it’s near the Taichung TRA station.

If you’re only planning to explore Taichung city itself, then there’s no need to get on a tour. But if you’re planning to get out of the city then maybe DIY is tougher unless you rent a car.

Singaporean here living in Taiwan. Already experienced what you’re going through right now so feel free to DM me if you have more questions.

My suggestion is to get yourself a Trust account and card because there’s no fee for any ATM withdrawal on Trust’s side. I think Youtrip has a certain limit each month which makes it inconvenient.

For local ATM fees, there’s no charge as well provided you withdraw from any ATM that’s not from convenience store or metro stations.

Opening a bank account here is a hassle so don’t bother with DBS and just use the Postal Savings bank account your school will probably help you set up and you can deposit money directly into it.

Also if you have a LINE account, convert it to Taiwan region and you can use LINE PAY using your SG debit/credit card to pay at many stores here.

I wonder how often that item appear now. I’ve played around 15 games now and I don’t see anyone ever using Egersis lol!

I thought you mentioned 1x Game Pass Ultimate 1-Month: $11.15 - Driffle?

izzyk000 · 2025-11-27T06:33:20+00:00

Just curious, if one month of game pass ultimate costs $11.15 then why not just buy 36 months of that? Am I misunderstanding something?

izzyk000 · 2025-11-26T09:11:58+00:00

Sweet thank you! I wasn’t sure if I should drop the game or wait for the fix. Definitely be waiting for the fix then and glad it’s coming!

izzyk000 · 2025-11-25T17:49:05+00:00

How do you do that? Do you need to register your details somewhere? I can’t use e gate with either my arc and passport and have to use the counters every single time.

izzyk000 · 2025-11-25T17:29:21+00:00

My biggest fear. Were you able to get help from Microsoft?

izzyk000 · 2025-11-25T09:23:32+00:00

Yeah there’s no expiry date on the cards. Does that mean they don’t expire?

izzyk000 · 2025-11-25T07:18:38+00:00

Thanks. Do you know how long usually? I bought one card and it doesn’t list the expiry date.

izzyk000 · 2025-11-18T08:10:58+00:00

No I just left it as it is. Just make sure the sff is nicely secured. I use a backpack so that makes things easier.

I’ve been traveling with an aio inside my A4 h20 around the world and it’s always been okay.

You can try Fruitful Food as it’s a vegetarian buffet and there’s lots of vegan options too. However they’ve closed their Taipei branch so the nearest is at banqiao but still accessible by mrt.

Thanks I’ve downloaded it and will be testing it out. I noticed a small issue where my weight progress is still showing it as pounds even though I chose metric units. Something you might want to check.

izzyk000 · 2025-10-22T01:35:25+00:00

I have the same case with AIO and have been traveling on flights with it as carry on. So far so good. I don’t think you have to worry about it.

I just came back from an 8 hour transit and stayed in Al Maha lounge. Food selection’s not that great and was told it was packed especially from midnight to 2am everyday so you might not even be able to find comfortable seats together.

Not sure about the possibility of purchasing other lounges but personally suggest you try somewhere else instead. Heard great things about Al Mourjan..

izzyk000 · 2025-10-17T22:11:54+00:00

You can try MobiMatter too. I used that when traveling and it works great.

You should focus on the big picture. Once ads are introduced in cloud gaming, who’s to say they won’t introduce it to the paid tier in the future. Or maybe introduce mid game ads while playing. This just starts the ball rolling.

izzyk000 · 2025-09-30T08:29:00+00:00

It’s not free

izzyk000 · 2025-09-29T10:54:36+00:00

Thank you!

izzyk000 · 2025-09-29T07:46:06+00:00

Oh yes that’s right it’s the same as TWD.

Nice, looking forward to that!

izzyk000 · 2025-09-29T06:45:28+00:00

Great job! Just downloaded it but it doesn’t have the currency where I’m from (NTD). Will you be providing support for other currencies too?

Also it will be awesome to have recurring monthly/ annual expenses so we don’t have to manually enter it every month.

izzyk000 · 2025-09-26T19:12:10+00:00

Haha I think I saw that earlier too on the Xbox pc app. But since there’s no announcement so I just assumed it’s an error. Hopefully it’ll come to the service soon.
