Actually….
I was terrified of heights early in life
Kinda got over it half-way
Now back to “I don’t like heights”
But I braved walking over the nets at Jewel Changi
Took a Grab back to Orchard Road to snipe, saw this
Wait till you see one that says SMD 😎

ayeeeeeee subie gang
Last McD before you fly back? @karmic furnace

https://asia.nikkei.com/Spotlight/Coronavirus/Japan-to-allow-visa-free-individual-tourists-from-Oct.-11 its official DinkDonk

And that’s the end of Singapore
Thanks for having me here and visiting your beautiful country gals and guys
I will be back for sure one day with a waifu….and extend my stay at the Marina Bay Sands 
Safe flight 😎
@torn grail Are forums archiveable? Can you archive this one so I can post again in it in the future?

@karmic furnace 


HOLY CHIT
LEMME START FROM DAY 1
The famous 50 baht ($1.37 USD) buffet street vendor
Really friendly guy, appears a lot in foodie Youtube vlogs
How many damn pics do u take? Are u a woman
according to grievur’s pfp, yes 
Later today: Mark Wien’s restaurant
Also, I’m getting attacked my mosquitoes
SOS
atmos want the goods. where the ladyboys at
Woah woah
I like em as just girls ||& just boys separate||
Just start a blog or ig for it or something if ur putting in this much effort 
Along with selfies? 
Checked out a local popular Thai pharmacy, bought some tretinoin for like $5 USD
In the US, this stuff would be easily $100-$200+

what's your travel plan this time? other than smuggling drugs 
Eat everything 
And pray I don’t get traveler’s diarrhea
My taxi driver is savage, he’s driving, browsing Facebook, and having a phone call all at the same time
Will probably post more tomorrow, I’n dying from the heat and lack of sleep from the flights
Why do I torture myself and decide to fly across the world
I believe that pad thai was 450 baht
aka $12.43 USD
Expensive for pad thai in Thailand compared to street vendors, but very reasonable for hotel room service I think
Especially for a Western branded hotel
Couldn’t forget everyone’s favorite restaurant chain in here

Also, should have done a bit more homework like I usually do with learning some of the language before I got here 
just say bondai here everywher u go lol
What that mean 
When in Asia, hit up Sushiro
🍣
Also found some goodies at 7-11
hows the quality?
Pretty standard Sushiro in Asia
ping pong fridays 
What dis
I need to make it thru the day instead of sitting on the toilet….soooo like 2/5? 3/5?

Placed my order, a handful of Singaporeans here (I can hear their SG accent) 
Restaurant also just opened 8 minutes ago, already full lah


Dat egg 
duck egg right?

Lisa lamonting
Lisa Post Crazy Horse era 
Needed two eggs on that pad gra pow

Gotta try these. They so good
brehhh

I bought a box, they’re really good!
the bbq one is the best 
k opening now

too sweet. next lol


Lots of Aussie tourists here today
Any Russians yet?
The state that I’m in since last year saw more Russian than my entire trip here
Probably, I hear Russian tourists take a liking to Bangkok
Of course, a few Singaporeans here and there and lots of Koreans too 
The only people I haven't met yet are people from Estonia
One of the previous workplace have a number of em but other than that
Tsuta ramen 
LFG TAIWAN
🇹🇼
Pog
Grievur gonna pick up some tai meis at Kor or ce La vi?
KOR uhhh no plans
Ce La Vi…. 
Should I open a dating app account for the week I’m here KEK
near Zhongxiao dunhua was one of my fav places to walk around
do it
What dis
I need help @lean wyvern
Maybe tonight! Gonna get breakfast/lunch now that it’s 11
Was supposed to be here yesterday but I messed up 
how long are you in tw for ?
Until Friday
It’s so crowded here, high occupanxy
One of the station for blue line, suitable for city walk nothing sussy there
Btw tiantianli closed every Monday
101 outlet 
Nice little shopping area

Dang, wait time at DTF went from 25 minutes to 35 minutes before my eyes
Followed the robot to my seat 
All the waitresses here, Lamonting
@river obsidian You still in TW? I forget
@vale geode Do you know a really cute waitress at DTF 101 named Yvonne? Holy cow she’s cute
Do I?!?!?
I’M ASKING, I’M HEADING OVER TO CARTIER TO BUY A RING NOW

I’M SETTLING DOWN IN TAIPEI

you got real luck
Nice pics 😄
Naw I left 
nice?
Yeah def dl tinder while you're there @karmic furnace
nahh man
takes too long to meet/match
or use suble asian travel on FB
there are ex-pats on tinder
just blatantly put in bio that you're there for x-many days and you're looking for friends who are down to grab food/drinks

That work for you? 
worked for me in Taipei and SG
by the time you match and chat on CMB you'll be leaving TPE
or if you want more english speakers you can try Hinge too i suppose
I bet if you went on Tinder there you'd have a buffet of a different kind 

Late night Sukiya
First time using UberEats in Taiwan, fast, cheap, and best part: no tipping culture compared to the US
Nah, I should have tho, mainly went for the coffee
Leaving Friday afternoon, I can’t install dating apps without a text verification to my phone number, but I don’t have an active number
Phone is on airplane mode minus my data-only eSim 

@sleek copper Any good recent Taiwanese romantic comedy movies I can watch when I get home?
It's so I can daydream about my future Taiwanese waifu here in Taipei when I move across the world and establish a new life here 
maybe joey would know lol
my favorite pineapple brand 
I bought 6 boxes

i’m not sure lol haven’t been watching a lot of movies. should probably ask in #中文
I gotta go to Chia Te later today, get some variety 

You want me to get you and @sleek copper and ship it to you guys?
i would like the sunny hills please. i’ll pay for shipping too 
:o I got limited of those
I’ll get you something from the airport 
Get 99 ranch to import it
they have sunny hills at some spots in the USA
i've seen boba guys charge $4 for one cake lmaooo
KEK




i had tiantianli in 2019 KEK


are you going to Keelung grievur
highly recommend their night market
but you went to Jiufen and shifen already?
I wish MrOwl was still active on Discord 
I might do Shilin night market tonight
did you do the Raohe night market yet?
Yes on day 1
niceee
Time for everyone’s favorite
HDL
The one near 101 is closed according to Google Maps
I might be able to fit that in tomorrow, I hope
After HDL, Chiang Kai Shek
Shilin market tonight
Ce La Vi for final night tomorrow?

dang i miss the taipei nightlife streams during 2020/21
is that tofu beside the lu rou fan?
Grand Hyatt has a bar at the top, I’ll probably go there tonight
Yoooo welcome to Taiwan Grievur
Cheers Grand Hyatt Taipei
02 2720 1230
Thank you! 
it's a radish/turnip cake
11/10 customer service
Okay, I need a break from food
What I’ve noticed: almost every Uber I’ve called is a Toyota Corolla Cross hybrid
I like it 👍
If you're planning to eat another beef noodle you should try this. I remember joey ate this and he liked it https://maps.app.goo.gl/agCa8KLEF6pZD8147
His taste is off 
It’s on my list but I don’t know if I’ll have time for another beef noodle place
Maybe my next trip to Taiwan, where I pack my whole life to move in with my newfound waifu in Taipei 
trueingggggggg Joey got the shittietst taste buds. imagine listening to him for food recommendations lololol
forgot to reply to this, i recommend this taiwanese romantic comedy movie if you havent watched it https://mydramalist.com/685455-till-we-meet-again
I’m trying to find the elevator to Ce La Vi 
Nvm found it
Found it, most obscure entrance ever
Also
RIP Joey’s coffee 
Skybar opens in 20 minutes 
take pictures with la tai meis
Also, Esther teach me mandarin so I can speak to my future waifu’s family 
ni hao mei nu, ke yi gei wo ni de instagram ma?


Slow service, ordered my old fashion at 9:19, now 9:34, they said 5 more minutes 
What’s “mei nu” 
Okay I lied, there were a few around ATT
On a Wednesday night too
say it to a taiwanese girl and you’ll find out. it’s nothing inappropriate lol




YOU TRYING TO GET ME KILLED OR WHAT
Also, the next time I come back to Taipei, the Park Hyatt will be opened by then 
LOL
“Hey dumb girl with no job, no money, no education, no prospects, you have instagram?” 
mei nu xpy
没女 and 美女 sounds exactly the same, first is nothing /lacking woman, second is pretty woman
mei nu 
Which do I want

throbbin helped me figure it out 

Too late now, I left Ce La Vi last night
It’s okay mei nu all over Taiwan 
Zhongshan Station Linear Park or Taipei East District
have lot of mei nu 
ciecie?
see if Kimi is working lol
KEKL
And remind me who Kimi is 

there's also that DJ Rara
人生得意須盡歡,莫使金樽空對月🌙

Kiki Lamonting

美女在哪裡 ?


taiwan don't sleep you liar !
Actually…
TRUEING
They sat me next to a random Taiwanese girl smoking shisha but I don’t think she can speak English
I should have learned more Mandarin HAHAHAHAHA
almost hooked up with 🌮 but... so close yet so far 
ayyyy
I got pulled over by Taiwanese police for jaywalking

No cars both ways for miles 
no fking way lol
how many more meals left in TPE
one last tiantianli KEKL
Nah, I don't want to wait in that line again KEK
I forget how long queues in Asia can be, needed a reminder check
I did kind of want to look at this place, they open at 5:00AM 
At the same time, can't wait to head back to NA, where I won't be waiting in long lines cuz I'll just work then go home everyday 
Because everything is expensive 
Fu hang is good only if your fan of the soy milk
But I didn’t think it was amazing
Some traditional (?) Taiwanese breakfast items at 3:00AM because I can’t sleep 
All this <$10 and no tipping
Blows my mind that Taiwanese can get all this for < $10 whereas the dumplings alone in the US would have been probably $10 
(Yes yes, cost of living argument set aside)
....I kinda forgot I had my laptop with me instead of trying to figure this out on mobile KEK
Not ciecie, coco?
No wonder, they closed 
Close enough, truffle and pork xiaolongbao = mei nus 
I’m gonna miss waking up to this view everyday

But by the time I come back to Taiwan again, the Park Hyatt Taipei will be open down the street 
that other boba place there is really good
Phrases I have learned from Joey’s streams in Taiwan
Thank you (xie xie) - 謝謝
A little bit (yidian dian) - 一點點
Sorry (duibuqi) - 對不起

You sure you didn't learn like 幹你老師, TMD, 白癡 from joey 
Okay those too, but I would get smacked 
Also from you degenerates in this Discord: I learned “mei nu” can be pretty girl or ugly girl

@torn grail @ocean mango @dawn narwhal MODS, can archive this….until next time ;)
Have a safe trip back!
Grievur ,Hope you have had fun in Taiwan
It was great! I’ll be back maybe in 2025 when the Park Hyatt Taipei hotel’s construction is done
And also, to find a wife 
Last minute airport food for free at the Plaza Premium lounge at Taoyuan airport



Time for my layover in South Korea
From mei nus to 예쁜 여자

Korean flight attendants Lamonting

any kpop dancers around modCheck
Any kpop fans around modCheck 🕵️
any nuna dancers around modCheck
DIY bibimbap at the SPC Lounge at the airport
Water and bottled cold brew coffee

Annyeonghaseyo yeppeun yeoja 
Damn, smart idea for the coffee, pain au chocolats & croissants looking uneven is a good sign 😋 (handmade) and no misstakes on the french words
. No wonder they rock and even opened Bakkery in France too. 🇰🇷 👏🏻

Which state


TRUEING
I'm about to go back to the airport and hope on the next flight back to Asia

CUTE GIRLS EVERYWHERE
Was walking to GS25 last night, saw a really cute girl standing next to a Mercedes-Benz…but then she pulled out a pack of smokes and lit one up.
Not a fan of smokers 
a lot of Korean girls smoke/vape
le cock ?

Just got in a taxi with the rudest / most aggressive driver ever KEK
Luckily it’s only a 10 minute ride
Shouldve told him dakcho shibanom 
World’s only (I think) reservation-only Blue Bottle Coffee experience
Will I get to see NewJeans or Twice
😊

How much was the experience Grievur baba
87,000 KRW (~$63.70 USD)
I think worth it if you’re a coffee enthusiast, for sure
@karmic furnace as it seems you do a lot of eating and drinking on these travels of yours, could we always have pre-trip weight and after-trip weights posted 
I mean, I'd get hella fat
Nice 🫡
The California Gesha looks interesting tho
def try the salt bread in ikseondong
Isn’t that the point of vacation? 
Will keep in mind 
did you start using tinder/hinge in seoul
or try to meet peeps via Subtle asian trave on FB
I just switched my Hinge location over to Seoul, I’m seeing a lot of foreigners KEK
I don’t have/use FB
oh yeahh def a lot of european girls in Seoul
prob the largest Asian guy - white girl ratio i've ever seen
mainly korean guys wiht euro girls
But for the Korean girls who are on the app, holy Lamonting
Trueing

Good thing I’ll be in Gangnam next week 
I see my queen tzuyu at the bottom 😊
Got my pictures done by a photographer who also did some pics for models and celebrities
KEK

Fried spiral potato ? ^^ It's one or 2 of if ?

Dipped in cheese powder too
But forget the potato, there’s a cute girl working in the hotel club / lounge cleaning the tables
