I'm Charlotte, I'm from Belgium and I just recently moved to Taiwan.

我是 Charlotte，我來自比利時，而我最近剛搬到台灣。

I'm super excited about this, and in this video, I would like to share with you things that I first noticed when coming to Taipei.

對此我感到非常高興，在這支影片中，我想告訴大家我來到台北時我首先注意到了什麼。

The first thing on my list might sound really obvious but it's just the climate and temperature.

在我清單上第一件事很明顯，就是氣候和溫度。

I was just shocked when I got out of the airplane and I felt how hot it was here.

當我下飛機時馬上就感到很震驚，我覺得天氣很熱。

'Cause I expected it to be warmer, a lot warmer than Belgium, but the humidity just makes it feel so much warmer to me.

我本來就預期台灣跟比比利時比起來會溫暖很多，但空氣中的濕氣讓我感覺更溫暖。

And because of this temperature here, I feel like there's very different kind of vegetation than I'm used to.

而且由於這裡的溫度，我覺得這裡的植被跟我習慣看到完全不同。

Here, I can feel it's kind of a "jungle vegetation". I really like it.

在這裡，我能感覺到台灣的植被是「叢林」等級。 我很喜歡。

As soon as I got into the MRT (the train from the airport to the city), I could see such amazing views.

我一進捷運（從機場到市區的火車）我看到很漂亮的景色。

Just amazing mountains full of jungle.

充滿叢林令人驚豔的山林。

So yeah, that's something I really like about Taipei.

我很喜歡台北這一點。

When walking around in Taipei for the first time, I noticed something about the architecture of the buildings that is so smart.

第一次在台北行走時，我注意到建築物的建築設計非常聰明。

The buildings are kind of built in a way where, on the ground, floor a part is left out and covers the sidewalk.

這些建築物的建造方式是，在一樓，有一部分是在外面並覆蓋人行道。

So that way, when you walk around, you're protected from the burning sun.

這樣，當你走路時，你就可以免受烈日的傷害。

Or when it's heavy raining, you're also protected from the rain.

或者在下大雨的時候，也可以防雨。

So I think that's something super smart the city did.

所以我認為這是這座城市非常聰明的地方。

Someone told me that Taiwan is the country that invented bubble milk tea, and that's really obvious when you walk around here.

有人告訴我珍珠奶茶是台灣發明的，走一圈就明白了。

There're bubble milk tea shops everywhere you go here in Taipei. So it's amazing.

因為台北到處都是珍珠奶茶店。很讚。

If you're a bubble milk tea lover and you live in Taiwan, it's basically paradise.

如果你是珍珠奶茶愛好者，而且住在台灣，那真的是天堂。

Taipei is built very differently than many Belgian cities in a way that Belgian cities are almost always built around one clear city centre where everything is happening,

台北的建築與許多比利時城市截然不同，比利時城市幾乎總是建在一個市中心附近，

you have all the restaurants and everything to do there and then you have the more residential areas around that.

所有一切的活動都在那裡進行，所有的餐廳也都在那附近。

But Taipei is built into many areas, many neighbourhoods with each their different vibe.

但是台北有很多街區，每一條街都有不同的氛圍。

To me as a Belgian, it's a very different city than our capital city, Brussels.

作為比利時人，對我來說，這與我們的首都布魯塞爾截然不同。

Taipei has a very good MRT, subway system.

台北有非常好的捷運系統。

I really like taking the subway here.

我真的很喜歡在這裡坐捷運。

It's easy, people line up like decent human beings.

很容易搭乘，人們一個接著一個排隊。

Not like in Belgium, where many people just push and try to get in the bus or subway first.

不像比利時，在那裡，很多人會推來推去，只為了要先坐上公車或地鐵。

Here people stand in line really neatly.

人們整齊地排隊站著。

And I also like taking the bus here.

我也喜歡在這裡乘公車。

That way I can see more of the city and I think it's pretty easy while using an app like Google Maps to find the right place and the right bus.

這樣我可以看到更多城市的樣貌，而且我認為使用 Google 地圖這樣的應用程式找到正確的地點跟公車很簡單。

So, the next thing is by far my favorite on this list and it is that, sometimes, you can hear some kind of really cute music playing on the streets.

下一件事是到目前為止，我最喜歡的，就是你會在街上聽到一些非常可愛的音樂。

And it reminds me to when I was small I could hear the ice-cream truck play this kind of music.

它讓我想起了我小的時候，我會聽到冰淇淋卡車播放這種音樂。

Children would run outside and buy some ice-cream.

孩子們會跑到外面去買一些冰淇淋。

But here, that music is actually the garbage truck coming.

但是在這裡，音樂就是代表垃圾車來了。

So people, when they hear it, they go outside with their garbage and they throw it away then.

當人們聽到時，他們帶著垃圾出去並且把它扔掉。

So that's something I never saw in my life anywhere before and it really surprized me. But I love it!

那是我一生中從未見過的東西，這真的讓我感到驚訝。但我很喜歡！

These were my first impressions when arriving here in Taipei.

以上是我到台北時的第一印象。
