When you think "tropical island", images that come to mind are the beaches, coconut palms, turquoise sea, the warmth ... Well it's true! Finally, the Caribbean is certainly true, but not everywhere.
Taiwan is bisected by the Tropic of Cancer. Yet, since our arrival on Friday 21, we've had in all and for all 2 minutes of sunshine. Worse yet, it's cold! And yesterday it was 7 ° to 18.30. Right now they do 10 °. We did not expect this. When I read "cold winters" in the guides, I thought it was cool over the summer to 35 °, so around 15-18 °. But no, he had to understand cold, wet and windy (in the north. In the south, it must do more 20 ° right now. The difference is impressive, given that there are only 300km away!)
We're surprised, but also the Taiwanese seem to be: everyone has the clim ', but the houses are not equipped with heating. Add to that the fact that they are very poorly insulated, and you can easily reach temperatures much cooler inside: 12 ° for example. What we do is never really warms up and keep her coat on the inside is more than recommended.
Roll on spring!
