Taipei, Taiwan.
* Clean and modern.
* Very safe.
* Nice people.
* Excellent public transportation.
* Good housing (relatively inexpensive).
* Great restaurants (extremely inexpensive).
* Low sales tax.
* Mandarin is a fun language to learn.
Also, $150-200 buys you a round-trip ticket to almost any other major city in Asia, so experiencing a new culture is just another way to spend a weekend. Taiwan's Eva Air and China Airlines are also excellent.

- frrp 10y agoI agree, Taipei is a nice place to live and Taiwan is an amazing island. But do you work completely remotely (for a US company)? Do you have any experience with local businesses or starting something in Taiwan? I've lived in Hong Kong and I'm interested in your insights. My email is in my profile.
