Heard so much about this place before I even arrived. Most people I know told me I would like it here. So ok, I decided I must go see what that fuss is all about. We waved for a cab in front of our hotel and whatever happens next is completely epic: Me: Hi, can we go to the pier-2. The art center? Taxi driver: (nod nod) ok ok. And because I used English to read out the place I want to go.. and the taxi driver said ok ok so fast and without a doubt.. my travel buddy decides mandarin is needed, just in case.. she worried we are going to Holland instead. Travel buddy: we want to go "????" (pier no 2). Taxi driver: ??? ????? Pier 2 jetty? Why would you want to go there for? I guess he must be wondering if this girl is trying to go smuggle stuff or what. And looking at his shocked face, I decided googling and showing him in words would be best and so: Me: here. We want to go here (showing and pointing at the search results) Taxi driver: ooooooooohhhhh.. ?????? is it? It is ?????? not ????. It is 2 different things and place. ?????? is tourist attraction. See art and etc. ???? is really a jetty.. a pier and nothing there. Very secluded place. Normallya people seldom go there. Me: ????? (looking at my travel buddy and LOL). Taxi driver: is ok, i know where you want to go now. Ok, I take you there. Me: (continue look at my travel buddy and laugh) ??? "????"? Travel buddy: ?? direct translate ma! Morale of the story; not everything can be directly translated ok. Lucky for us, manage to avoid being cheated to go Holland again. #taiwan #kaohsiung #velverseinvadestaiwan #?? #?? #?? #traveltheworldwithvelverse #velverse2019travel #instatravel  #travelogue #travelgram #?????? #thepier2artcenter
