@10032 learn mandarin and make business deals for steel

2018-12-14 08:42:34 UTC  

tw is honestly so underrated as a destination but i can understand why if you can only into english

2018-12-14 08:43:57 UTC  

I hope to learn mandarin at some point but I have zero interest in the steel business

2018-12-14 08:44:05 UTC  

is it tough to get around tw with only english?

2018-12-14 08:44:10 UTC  

unironically do it, just not for the steel

2018-12-14 08:44:19 UTC  

it's manageable for taipei

2018-12-14 08:44:36 UTC  

if you make extensive use of google maps and stick around touristy areas

2018-12-14 08:44:49 UTC  

but even then, knowing a bit of mandarin goes a long way

2018-12-14 08:45:09 UTC  

a lot of ppl seem shy to speak english, even if they know it

2018-12-14 08:45:14 UTC  

at least for younger people

2018-12-14 08:45:42 UTC  

older people usually only know a few phrases here and there

2018-12-14 08:45:51 UTC  

outside of taipei, it's probably way harder

2018-12-14 08:46:14 UTC  

but in taipei, you can probably find at least someone nearby who can help you in english

2018-12-14 08:47:30 UTC  

Id want to visit some scenic railways and national parks if I went, hot spings and shit

2018-12-14 08:47:45 UTC  

But I would also probably have a friend who speaks mandarin with me

2018-12-14 08:52:36 UTC  

that helps a lot

2018-12-14 08:52:58 UTC  

where you find tw frens from?

2018-12-14 08:55:02 UTC  

honestly though, i actually quite enjoy flexing my broken language skils

2018-12-14 08:55:28 UTC  

the reactions are great and yet so chill
