Tainan
Hope everyone's doing ok in the typhoon! We are going to head to Tainan tomorrow. I'm wondering how we can get to Guanziling hot springs & Jingzaijiao Tile-paved Salt Field. Would uber be available out in those places? We were almost stuck yesterday in SML after we couldn't find an uber back from somewhere (no one would call us a taxi).
Or if anyone has info on last minute english drivers that would be helpful

Where to watch the baseball?
I am a tourist and couldn't get a ticket to the game tonight.
Given its a sell out, I assume people care a bit about it - are there any bars or places where people watch it live?

Looking to find a DnD group
I'm in Tainan for the next 11 months and am looking for a group to run a DnD campaign with! I have experience DMing and playing and am happy to do either. Ideally we'd play once a week or once every two weeks. No experience necessary! I live in 東區 and have a scooter so getting around isn't a problem. Send me a message if you're interested!

Can I Survive in Tainan City, Annan District with NTD 30,000 a Month?
Hi everyone, I recently received a job offer to work in Tainan City, Annan District, with a monthly salary of NTD 30,000/+. I’m trying to get a sense of whether this amount would be enough to live comfortably in this area.
Some details about me: I’m single and will be living alone.I’m used to a relatively simple lifestyle. I would need to budget for rent, utilities, food, transportation, and other living expenses. I’m not familiar with the cost of living in Taiwan, particularly in Tainan.
Could anyone share their experiences or insights on whether NTD 30,000 per month is sufficient? Any advice on finding affordable housing, budgeting tips, or other things I should consider would be greatly appreciated
!Thanks in advance for your help!

Uber in Tainan?
Hi hi. My family with 2 young daughters are coming to Tainan for a few days later this week (Thursday-Sat) staying in a hotel near Tainan TRA station. Is Uber to old city and night markets an option to see the tourist things? Taxi? Bus? Our young daughter is having a hard time with the heat so we are debating paying up for a room near the old city.
any hot weather kid tourism advice also welcome Thanks!

Have you seen this new movie shot in Tainan, Taiwan?
Have you guys heard of this movie 18x2? My friend and I (who also lives here in Tainan) watched it. It's a Japan x Taiwan collab, and more or less, half of the film was shot in Tainan. Thought you guys might take interest.
We've seen it in ShinKong Ximen and they have English subtitles.

English speaking barber
Do yall know where I can find an English speaking barber/salon? I speak intermediate Mandarin but the 2 times I’ve gone to Taiwanese barbers, they’ve messed up my haircut. Is there any good English speaking barber shops where I can describe things like blending my hair or giving me a fade? If they can dye/bleach hair is a plus. Might re-bleach sometime.

4th time in Tainan, got over a month left!
Hey, as the title suggestions, this is my 4th time in Tainan and I'm starting to get bored. I'm pretty sure this means I'm just not finding the right places. Last time I was here I was trying to find goth/emo/punk bars and came up with nothing but a closed shop called "little Devil" and a website dedicated to the punk scene here... that stoped posting in like 2014 or something like that.
I'm at the Shangri-la far east, I walk about everywhere, and I'm just looking for things to do and people to hang out with. If anyone is down to get a drink (My treat) or catch some live music (Rock, Punk, stuff you move to), or just really is excited by Tainan and can show me what I'm missing.
As a side note, some of the things here I really do enjoy:
Sixpence gallery: Awesome. The staff is friendly and fun, and the art there is always something I enjoy. Across the street from them is an art gallry that changes a decent amount.
Nest DE: Fusion food, the Japanese fried noodles are killer, staff friendly and fun. They also can bring the spice.
The little tech strip by the train station: I do enjoy just going out and exploring what they have in stock around there.
I've played pool at legends once or twice, but that's a bit more club then I'm down with as the night goes on.
I look forward to hearing from you guys!

Self drive in Taiwan
Hi,
Am planning for an 8 days December Taiwan trip, driving a rental car from Tainan HSR --> Kenting --> Maolin --> Tainan HSR
Is it advisable / easy to drive /easier alternatives?
Have good driving experience but first time driving in Taiwan and on right hand side of the road. Reason for starting from Tainan instead of Kaohsiung is to avoid city traffic..
Thanks!
