The perfect Taiwan itinerary for 2 to 3 weeks
Taiwan is one of those destinations where you really feel that you’re traveling. I don’t speak the language, you won’t run into Western tourists all the time, there’s delicious food on every street corner, and it has the most stunning nature. I have 2,5 weeks to explore this beautiful island and have put together a Taiwan itinerary to get the most out of my time here.

Blogshop at home: Photoshop for Bloggers
See what I just did there, in the picture above? A week ago that would have taken me ages. And it probably wouldn't have looked like this. I find it hard to believe, but it looks like I'm finally 'getting' Photoshop. At least the basics that I need for my blog....
