Hsinchuang?I'm in the middle of Taipei, near Da'an Park. And come on, there's some pretty funky places about, depending on musical taste.

I knowThere are some great little places. I'm just pissed off at the moment due to a nasty work situation (doing the old bushiban thing). You Taiwanese or visiting?

Ah, fair enough then.And given the options, I'd say visiting. Been here a bit over a year now, but managed to avoid the English teaching thing successfully the whole time.

A wise choiceAlthough it's pot luck. Some great schools, some that are reminiscent of the gulag archipelago. Went to My Place last night. Had a great evening. Where do you usually chill?

I do work for one buxiban, Howard (on Nanyang St., near Taipei Main Station), but not as a teacher.
And I haven't been up the Combat Zone yet, too far for my liking. Usually I head to Riverside, Blue Note, or a friend's bar, Laku Laku.

My first time in the ZoneIt's well worth a trip. I usually go to Bistro in Shida, or 45 if I can't be arsed. Where's Laku Laku?

Might have to head up that way then.45, which one is that? The one down by Guting MRT?
Laku Laku's down by Sun Yat-sen MRT - out the northwestern-most exit, down the lane to the left, about the third alley on the right. I think. Something like that. Alley 7 on that lane. I've got a friend who plays guitar and sings there every Thursday night, so I head there every week for that. It's pretty quiet, and definitely more a bar than a dance place. Definitely.
