A day out is about more than just a route. In Taipei, outings aren’t confined to preexisting frameworks but can simply mean breaking away from routine, or momentarily escaping the hustle and bustle to enjoy a change of pace. Outings are a lifestyle or way of living. Everyone treats travel differently. Some prefer to follow an itinerary, ticking off landmarks one by one, while others enjoy strolling aimlessly along the street or simply want to find a café or bookstore to unwind. Ask a hundred different people, and you’ll find a different hundred ways of day-tripping or exploring the streets and alleys. Excursions are a form of life that connects the various ways of imagining the many facets of Taipei. Every wanderer can use a different way to rediscover the perfectly everyday yet extraordinary Taipei.
