The tour guide who came out was tall and handsome, and I secretly worried he might just be a college student working part-time. But despite his youthful appearance, Guide Seong (or perhaps Guide Yong? lol) was passionate, knowledgeable, and had an impressive background. He was so enthusiastic and personable that I wished he could be a role model for my kids. lol I had particularly looked forward to Kavalan, but thanks to my son, who dislikes his mom drinking, I couldn't fully enjoy it. Still, it was a great opportunity to savor and compare the aromas of various Kavalan types. (The prices in the city were cheaper, though.) For the hot spring itinerary, he recommended a delicious bakery. Since I didn't have time to go to the Chia Te store and was planning to skip buying pineapple cakes, I trusted the guide and bought a lot of them in Jiaoxi. It was a huge success! The pineapple cakes were delicious and great value for money. (Today, I'll compare them with the 100% pineapple cakes from Suncake in Jiufen; they're as tasty as Chia Te and SunnyHills but much more affordable! :) ) Anyway, thanks to our guide, what could have been a slightly disappointing tour became much richer. He helped us with gift worries, shared interesting knowledge, and created wonderful memories. Thank you so much! (Plus, he was so thoughtful when I was short on cash, which made things incredibly convenient! Thank you!)
