淘气过生活

[ 淘气过生活 ]

Was boring yesterday that I keep changing channel on ASTRO, looking for something interesting. Then I found this, <淘气过生活>, a programme by TaoZi. Didn't manage to watch much, when I found it, it's almost in the end.

The interesting part is she invited friends from different countries, who is currently staying in Taiwan to talk about their experiences on travel. I always wanted to take a walk out from my own country, to the places I have never been to before, to open my sight, to experience something different..

So, a Taiwanese girl said she spend TWD60k to watch the famous North Star. This, you will have to be very stubborn. According to her, most of the public toilet you have to pay money to get in. So, to reduce the amount they spend on toilet, they have to pretend to be a kid, so they can follow those who paid to get in. Once the gate is opened, quickly follow them. If, they got scolded, just pretend to be a Korean, so to not ruin their original country good name.

The other Taiwanese guy said he spend TWD10k to New Zealand, applied for working holiday visa. TWD20k for the air fares, TWD20k for a second hand laptop he bought to used there, and TWD60k cash. He worked there, had fun there, he even bought a second hand four wheel drive there. After 3 months, he managed to go back Taiwan with TWD80k. Working Holiday.. A very good idea, but too bad, there are restriction that you need to be in the age range of 18-31. =(

There is a Korean guy said they used to get themselves a local friend before they goto any country. Then they may be able to stay at their house, to cut off accommodation fees. So what if the friend not willing, and shut the door? Well, just sleep in front of the main entrance till he would!

A French girl said she came across something called 'Sofa Club' from the Internet. You just have to registered yourself as member, and take a photo of your house's sofa and post it there. Search for the country you would like to visit, and pick a sofa! The owner will borrow you the sofa, and some shower utilities. Likewise, whoever likes your sofa, you will have to borrow it out too. I personally find this very interesting, and fun. But, for ladies, this is rather dangerous.

Hm.. How I wish I was young again...
