Hello, Luke! I am a LEPSTER from Taiwan. It's amazing to discover that many people here in Taiwan listen to your podcast. I appreciate your kind and knowledgeable efforts, and listening to your podcasts has become a daily routine for me. Although I rarely need to speak English in my daily life, I believe learning English is like exercising - it requires persistence and regular practice. Thanks again for your informative content at various levels. It really helps me improve and is interesting enough to keep me listening.

It's highly appreciated ☺️ Also, I would like to emphasize on the fact that your podcast isn't only serving its main purpose but also being a great companion for some people who are struggling in life either with health issues...Like me ..or with something else.

Loved your postcast! Thank you. It's a new discovery to me. Just one comment: when you travel abroad - but also in your country, if it happens to be Italy - it's always a good idea to be at the railway/underground station well before your train/flight is due. I had nerve-wrecking experiences in Paris, London, St. Petersburg, Prague, Barcelona, Moscow, New York... (not Taiwan!) But, as an Italian, I feel it's in our genes not to trust signs, timetables and so on. Even though, in Italy public transport (including SIGNS) has certainly improved a bit. Luke, your humour makes me think of my former English lover, a Londoner who's still in my heart, after many many years. I smiled and laughed at your jokes as if I had been with him again. We're still in touch after more than 35 years. What a blessing the unmistakable English sense of humour is! Thank you again!

Hi Luke and Kate, I'm a Taiwanese potter. We design round shapes for winter vessels because the closer and inward rim can hold the temperature better, also the thicknesses of them are normally greater compared with those for summer. What Luke said in the video contributed to the effect as well.

Have just listened to this on Podcast few days ago but think I want to come here to leave comment! So to response to the late opened coffee shop situation, I think there's two reason about it haha 1. The coffee from convenient stores is too good and cheap so the coffee shop in the morning might be hard to compete. if opened in the early morning. (and most of the convenient stores in Taiwan are 24/7!!!)(I miss it so much) 2. Taiwan's work-life balance is sadly bad. Many people need to work till late night so they need to go to a coffee shop or grab a coffee late to keep them awake and work. It's almost impossible to see in the UK. But overall, I believe Kate would love Taiwan as it's a liberal and friendly country!! Welcome xx

So surprised that Kate complained about cafe in Taiwan. I think it is more than easy to get a cup of caffee at 7 a.m. Totally no problem. Of course there is not English breakfast everywhere. But you can get all kinds of breads, croissants, bagels, and local style bereakfast. Definitely, all around, especially in Taipei.
