Lily Chuang, Best Guide in Taiwan

It has to be one of the toughest jobs around, guiding a small group of travel writers. Even tougher after they spent time running around mainland China. Our guide and Taiwan’s best is Lily Chuang, the lithe and amazing Lily. From the moment we meet her on landing in Taiwan the poor girl had to know the week would be no walk in the park, but her smile worked wonders. It is almost a question of physics that when a van filled with writers stops they all head in different directions, as if drawn magnetically. We all have different ideas of what we want to do and see. Lily did her best to please all factions.

Ever resourceful Lily tracked down myself and two other members of our ramshackle group on Facebook and made my day. I meet many guides in the course of a year, many great, but one of the best is Lily, a reason alone to head to Taiwan.
