Pls give me the link to replace the outdated one 

My hostel charge NTD1,000 for 1 to 4 person per cab.. i think it is the standard price..

during my research, i got see some charged for NTD900+

OK Tnx. I probably use other than imageshack bcos of their pathetic rules of requiring login & those using IE cab't really view it 

i use the direct debit by public bank , but i need update my details, and need to check the latest status for airasia ticket ...

regarding the digital tour buddy, u need apply thru online.... when i approach the staff there, they said need apply at least 3days before ur arrival.... it very fast only as u just need show ur passport then they will copy and u fill in a form... it won take u longer than 15mins....

if u take bus then u need around 1hrs something to reach taipei city.... u need sometime to clear from the kastam....

aiyume~~

digital buddy can apply starting one month before your departure... if they have the phone at their hand, they will reply u asap.
when i was there, i just need to fill in ur details and they will explain a bit. quite fast actually. just right outside of the departure hall.

yeah..most of them answered your questions. You can start apply the Digital Tour Buddy(DTB) a month before you are scheduled to reach there. If both you and your partner is aged 30 and below, you can apply for each of you. Better cos both of you actually have phone that you can call to each other in case one of you is lost. Anyway, make sure that you get a conformation email from them that your application is successful. You can remind them about a week before you reach and they will reply fast.

Print it out and hand to them when you collect your DTB alongside a copy of ur passport, and driver's license(if you're not driving). The process of collecting is not long...maybe 5-10mins ok already because they have already prepared for you in advance. You need to make sure that you stated in your application that you want to collect it at Taoyuan Terminal 2 (if there is where you land. Airasia land in T2. I'm not sure about MAS which i think is ur flight and other airlines). The collection is at customer service counter which is right at the entrance of the arrival gate.

I think late at night, you'll get out faster unless your baggage is the last one to be thrown onto the conveyor belt I think you can get out within 30mins. My flight with airasia reached at 2.20pm. By 3pm I'm already at the express bus to Taipei.

I think most hostel/homestay allow late check in. You'll need to inform them in advance.

AA have flights that reached at night? I thought they only have one going there everyday that reached about 2.30pm.

I didnt apply the travel card. but it's no harm applying for it since it's free anyway. you'll get some discounts at selected places, so if you don't visit the places, there's no use of the travel card la.

ic. you can ask your hostel about the option of the airport transfer whether he can get a better price for you or not.

my blog ar? haha. working on it now actually..maybe a few more days..perhaps..i can't believe that it's 2months+ since i went there and i still haven't finish writing about it

Yes. After you paid the 10% booking fees, Kevin would require you to confirm the reservation with another 30% payment. The balance will be paid when you reached there. Once the 30% is paid (thru paypal) then you can actually ask him about the transfer.

it's correct as mentioned by jlgoh9.. u can pay by credit card via the paypal site, i done it.. between u may direct contact Kevin n do the booking.. it's the same process u go thru other booking website.. n a good point is Kevin can give a little bit of discount 

Make sure u inform Kevin in advance abt ur late arrival..

if can hand carry the luggage better still. no need wait for luggage.

i applied for the youth travel card but doesnt serve any much use. most prolly my sightseeing ticket is already paid for. but u get to keep the tag for souvenir. no harm applying, IMHO. might get discount on certain things
my trip were almost 8 months ago. i'm still at my Day 3 for my 10 days trip.. lost my blogging mojo d..

u don't need to bring 7 days clothes... bring 3-4 days can liao... either u buy new one there or u wash the clothes there. keep the luggage space for your shopping items

do you tell him you recommended by other?

I need to store my medium size luggage. Is the luggage room able to fit it??
btw.. where can i get the luggage room? Is tis available at all train station?
cant seems to find any info on this service though :S

Ah.. thanks.. noted in my list 
Ya, many of my relatives told us about that.. and ask us dont buy anything from taiwan 
What is sun cake? noted in my list to Jiufen.. 

A few of my family members too scare for taiwan food now.. so i think i wont buy much.. maybe a little bit for my own n colleagues only.. what a good timing 

Whole morning trying to book my train to Hualien but no luck for my initial desired date (25th June)..  the ticket really sold like hot cake.. some advise to traveler planning to go Taroko/Hualien, plz book n pay ur ticket exactly 2 weeks in advance from your depart date.. n steal it like no tomorrow..
