Taiwan Blogs

I read a wide range of blogs written by expats (mostly English teachers) in Taiwan — they’re a great source of news from the island, and they remind me of the year I spent there.

Doubting to Shuo (an approximation of the Chinese word for “rumors”) is a new one that recently caught my eye; it’s penned by a guy in Taipei Linkou named Mark. A recent post contained a highly accurate description of employment options for teaching English in Taiwan. In another excellent post, Mark writes about highly successful foreigner-run cram schools.

Other Taiwan blogs of note are: The Taipei Kid; Michael Turton’s The View from Taiwan; Scott Sommers’ Taiwan Weblog; and a better tomorrow (a fantastic photoblog).
