My New Article About Scootering in Taiwan

I’ve got an article in this month’s Student Traveler magazine. The piece describes a fiasco that ensued when I attempted to obtain my scooter driving license in Taiwan last year. As the folks at the mag wrote in the issue’s table of contents:

“Riding a scooter is easy, right? Not in Taiwan, not when you’re being tested, and certainly not when you’re Newley Purnell.”

Truer words were never written.

(Thanks to Chris M. at Gridskipper for mentioning the piece.)
