The season in Taipei begins with September 2009, when I, Maggie, arrive for a three-month sojourn in the capital of Taiwan.
Part of the week is for Mandarin language classes, thoughtfully provided by the MOE. Plug: they may just have a stipend for your profession/life stage too. If they show love for freelance reporters, they’re thinking of everybody.
But outside of class, time to hit the streets, alleys, parks, byways, odd corners and outliers of a metro of ten million.
