I have been living in Macao SAR for more than 18 years, but now lived in Taipei since my university, it is going to be the 7th years. And now I am still living here for my postgraduate degree. I like photography, I like books, so I have made some books for sale and for my friends.

Taipei / Cafe

Astar is a new café just opened around my neighborhood, and I am glad it opened! The decoration is cute, with lots of old furniture, including tables and chairs from elementary schools. The owner is only 29 years old, who had a dream of having a shop selling everything, so he started saving money since 15. It certainly brought a new atmosphere to the area, where is known for financial centre. Since the owner was a bartender at a famous bar in Taipei, don’t forget to order a customized cocktail not on the menu!

Taipei / Place

The Sanzhi UFO houses were abandoned buildings in Sanzhi District, the place described as a ghost town and were torn down by the government in late 2008. I was fortune to visit there once with my uni friends in time. One of the most surreal place I have ever been... what a shame the buildings are all gone now.

Taipei / Cafe

My favorite cafe in Taipei. For friends gathering, gossiping, discussing, it is more about just having a lunch. The meals are wonderful. I cannot remember how many times I sat here.

Taipei / Museum

While I am in Taipei, Taipei Fine Art Museum is one of the places that I go most frequently. Well, not only because it’s not far from where I live by scooter, but also because it’s really cheap! (The entrance fee is about 60p.) And, of course, despite the political scandal, the exhibitions are always diverse and interesting, and it has great library in the basement. On top of that, after my solo show, some of the staffs and I became friends. So, 60p for great exhibitions, free books and hanging out with friends, why not?

Taipei / Shop

One of the best shoe shops in the world. (well... at least for me haha) You could customise your own leather shoes by authentic leather and different material soles by 6 steps they design, and there's not only leather shoes but also leather sneakers! For Chenjingkai is a curator, graphic designer and artist himself, the shoe office also collect lots of art books and graphic design books for visitors, you could read some of these books while visiting the shop. Don't miss out on this shop when you visit Taipei city!
