在這集裡我談了自己對「台灣人在台灣對外國人說英文」的看法，希望學中文的各位別怪台灣人跟你說英文。你自己的經驗和想法是怎麼樣？可能有我沒有考慮到的地方，歡迎你和我分享！

In this episode, I talked about my views on "Taiwanese speaking English to foreigners in Taiwan" and I hope that you guys who are learning Chinese will not blame Taiwanese for speaking English to you. What about your own experiences and opinions? There might be something I haven't taken into account. Please share it with me!

EP2. 在台灣跟外國人說中文還是英文？Speaking to a foreigner in Taiwan in Chinese or English?

“Well, as I’m still a uni  student, doing things on the cheap is something I've had to learn over the last few years, and just the weekend before last, myself and my 2 best mates had a really wonderful day out that cost next to nothing.




It was a bank holiday weekend, and we really wanted to have a special day out, as the weather forecast was perfect, and we really needed to get away from our studies. 




To do anything in the city, especially during a holiday weekend, always costs a lot of money, and as we were flat broke,  we decided to look for somewhere to go outside of the city. One of the guys came up with the idea of riding our bikes to a very beautiful park and lake, about 15 km outside of the city. 




We all agreed it would be a great idea, and each chipped in some cash, so we could buy some nice food in the local supermarket, as there is a barbeque area in the park which is free to use.
It turned out to be a really wonderful and special day, and was as cheap as chips, as riding our bikes meant there was no transport cost, and entry to the park was actually free. I think in total we spent about 24 dollars on the food between the three of us, and it really goes to show that it’s still possible to have a really special day out that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
