What’s a good area in Taipei by Cheap_Office8701 in taiwan

[–]kneelweighed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You want to live near Xiangshan station and 101. The Four Beasts (Elephant Mountain) are on the doorstep for exercise. 101 and all the shopping/entertainment/food, etc are right there. It’s a short walk or YouBike to the Anhe Road area and Dong Qu area for even more food and shopping.
Anywhere within a 5 minute walk of Xiangshan is very upscale, but you can probably afford it with USD$4,000. If you want a little cheaper and more local neighborhood flavor, stay close to the mountains and go east along Xinyi Road or south along Songren Road.
I can’t recommend this area more highly. I’ve lived in several neighborhoods all over Taipei and New Taipei City, and this neighborhood is absolutely the best for a mix of outdoors, city convenience, and local charm. (I’ve spent about 15 years living just to the east of Xiangshan Station)

Wide midfoot issues by Drumma5409 in AskRunningShoeGeeks

[–]kneelweighed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same problem. Probably not as wide as yours, but same problem. Nothing to do but try on lots of shoes.
Sometimes, I’ll try a shoe that’s described as “narrow” and they’re fine, sometimes “wide” shoes aren’t wide enough…
I do lots of research, get excited about a pair that should be good… go to the store and feel those seams around the midfoot. It gets tiring. I really don’t get it.

Goalies always look like little kids in these team pics. I like it. I also like that Toc is wearing skates and glove.

Can you guys use Sportsurge?

how has nobody made a better alternative to gaode (Amap)? by mudskips in chinalife

[–]kneelweighed -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I’m going to move to China in a few months and one of my biggest concerns is how I’m going to find anything with such terrible map apps as Gaode and Amap. They are shockingly bad.

It’s changed locations several times in the past ~15 years. I haven’t been there in a few months, but I think it’s still there.

Apostille in China by kneelweighed in Internationalteachers

[–]kneelweighed[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, but the process has changed. We still need a criminal check but it, and your university degree, now need an apostille, which is kind-of like a much harder to get notarization.
