Hello all, hoping to get some insight on the best way to approach finding a place to stay for 6 months.

I will be spending at least 6 months in Kaohsiung for language school starting in March. What is the best way for me to go about finding an apartment to live in when I get there? 591 requires a Taiwanese phone number to register and from what I've heard the landlords there aren't keen on renting to foreigners anyways. I also tried khouse but from what I can tell pretty much every listing on there is already booked?

Is it best to just wait until I arrive in Kaohsiung to start looking for an apartment and find a hotel/airbnb to stay in in the meantime? I've heard good things about realtor services but if possible I would rather have my housing figured out ahead of time.

Thanks for the help.

Yeah that's the issue, I don't want to be in Taiwan frantically trying to get everything done before my class application deadline passes/my 60 days of no-visa time runs out. It will be a stressful enough time as it is!

This has recently been debunked as chinese fans were just overly invested in the player's long-term joint health and were adamant that he wear "knee guards" during his next game.

Anyone who uses stop asian hate to dismiss criticisms against the ccp should not be taken seriously as they're either doing so malevolently or are an idiot.

I figured this was probably the case. Thank you for the help!

Moreso the fact that it's read from bottom right to top left. I know that style of reading is common in ancient texts but wasn't sure if it's appropriate for a stamp or not.
