dude we just got back how was your first
time in Taiwan what's going on everybody
its Shama you know you guys are always
like commenting in the comments and
saying stuff like yo Shama you got a cup
of Taiwan come on just come to Taiwan
already so I got good news for you guys
recently I received a very interesting
message from the Taiwan Tourism
Authority and they said hey Shamu would
you think if we sponsored a video on
your channel where you come to Taiwan
and make like a travel video and have a
lot of fun and I was like wow that
actually sounds really cool but they
were like yo but we have a special kind
of request really interested
specifically in getting people
interested in taiwan's kind of like
offshore islands you know there's a main
island of taiwan but then there's a
bunch of little islands around it that
have really interesting unique history
and culture and food so I was like all
right what do you have in mind they're
like cumin so I'm like Jim I've barely
heard about it so I looked it up and
actually seems really interesting it's
freaking cold here in New York anyway so
I want to go to someplace a little
warmer it sounds amazing but then I
realized that I have a friend Dave who
is a chinese-american guy but he doesn't
speak Mandarin and he's never been to
Taiwan but he's always really wanted to
go to Taiwan and so I'm thinking what if
I used some of that sponsorship money
and just invited him to come I want to
be totally for free and like I pay for
all the fences I think it'd be like a
really amazing surprise to experience
Taiwan for the first time so I made
lunch plans into today
and I'm just gonna go and surprise him
by telling him then I'm gonna treat him
to Taiwan and we're gonna see what he
thinks
this is amazing okay I'm so excited and

pride when they made it like the people

they come here and you build like these
really incredible architecture just even

lay out the bricks right the the
paintings they have on top well you can
tell you even back in their day they
were rich like this was this was a rich
yeah this wasn't poor people making
these you know this this took a lot of
money and time and effort to construct
like when there were bombings during the
war shelter

good place to hide Oh
