i-to-i TEFL 
Country Guides: Taiwan
Being controlled by the Chinese, Dutch and Japanese at different points has left a country in search of its own identity. Gleaming metropolises with bright neon signs have risen from the ashes of dictatorship, making Taiwan the model for progress in Asia, but with a great respect for its history.
Such a modern country should have a transport system to match, and Taiwan doesn't disappoint. Planes fly between the major cities and the buses are regular and comfortable. But for a real treat, take a train from Taipei's bustle to the spectacular natural scenery of the surrounding mountains.
