Visit Taiwan !

Welcome back to Perspectives with Neilo.

Many of our recent episodes have been about Taiwan and as it's the time of year when many of us think about our travel plans, we decided to visit the Holiday World Show which took place at the RDS in Dublin recently to find out more about traveling to Taiwan.

Taiwan is an amazing gateway to Asia, whether you want to take an exciting vacation or spend some time learning Mandarin Chinese. In this episode we speak with Taiwan's Ambassador to Ireland, His Excellency Pierre Yang as well as the Director of the Taiwan Center for Mandarin Learning in Ireland, Evan Furlong.

We've included lots of links and information about traveling to Taiwan and the various topics discussed in the Dive Deeper section below.
