This adult slide is amazing! 🇹🇼
While walking to New Taipei City in not that wonderful weather, my day was cheered up a bit when I found this adult-sized slide just outside the Sanchong MRT station. I decided to give it ago of course!

Why did flight IU-737 not land immediately?! 🇮🇩
Why did Super Air Jet flight IU-737 not land at it's soonest convenience when the plane's air conditioning stopped working? Passengers had to endure an hour of extreme heat without any air flow before landing at the destination airport for this flight, over an hour away from it's first possible landing at Surabaya.
This incident took place on March 21, 2023.

Subscribe to my channel on YouTube!
https://youtube.com/@johanstravel
Did you know there is a ceremonial changing of the guards in Taipei? You are probably familiar with the changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, United States. But there are other honorary guards though. One of them is on the other side of the world in Taiwan.
In the upcoming video we will bring a visit to the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall in Taipei. Ever hour on top of the hour during opening hours there will be change of the honor guard that visitors can attend free of charge. Before we can see this ceremony, we explore parts of the memorial hall that houses a museum among others.

What’s wrong with these people?
Why on earth can't people just behave? I guess they see Bali as a place where they can do anything they want because 'it's only a holiday'. But that's changing, with much toucher action from local police and the immigration office.

Planes stolen by Russia are breaking down! 🇷🇺
Russia stole these planes, but they need maintenance, badly! Russia’s aviation industry is struggling to keep up with sanctions imposed over Ukraine, and the consequences are dire. With a record number of accidents hitting Russian civilian planes, passengers are facing the very real risk of tragedy every time they board a flight.
Only recently an Azur Air Boeing 767 taking off from Thailand’s Phuket airport saw it’s right engine burst into flames, which caused panic among passengers on the full plane. Only weeks later a Boeing 737 belonging to Russia’s Rossiya Airlines made an emergency landing on a domestic flight after cabin depressurization.
The problems are mainly due to the inability of Russian airlines to purchase essential parts and equipment from the West, after Russia decided to not return leased planes when asked, basically stealing them.
Passengers are understandably worried about the safety of their flights, and industry experts warn that serious accidents are only a matter of time.

Surviving a typhoon by staying indoors 🇹🇼
Today was a very wet day in Taipei, and probably the day with the most rainfall I ever experienced, but I'll explain that in the video. I had to look for some alternative things to do though, as sitting in a hotel room all day is not my thing. This video is a slightly longer one, but covers the entire day trying to find things indoor for me to do. I think I succeeded in doing this eventually.

Why is the voice over talking dirty to me? 🇮🇩
Wait what the heck is going on here? Just watch this for a bit. I’ve added the English subtitles for those who don’t understand Indonesian.
Watching this clip, I have so many questions, like.. why is all the talk so suggestive? Why is she asking for extra cream on top? Why is she shoving that food in her mouth like she has done it before? What does her mum think of all this?
But the main question remains; why is the entire store painted pink?
This shop in the tourist area of Bali is just selling richly decorated cakes, I mean, no harm done, right?

Taking shelter from Typhoon Nesat, kinda 🇹🇼
When a typhoon tries to destroy your holiday, what do you do? Well, stay indoors would be good advice, so that’s what I did. Mostly. Since I’m in Taiwan only for less than a week, I didn’t want to let an entire day go to waste by simply staying indoors.
Today I visited a flower market and a jade market that are only opened during weekends, so lucky me it was a Sunday what was chosen by typhoon Nesat to dump some 1000 millimeters of water over parts of Taipei. Even more rain fell just north of where I was, imagine that! I myself only had flood warnings on my phone though. And oh, my shoes and socks were wet at the end of the day.
Most of this day I spent indoors in the sprawling tunnel system directly below and around Taipei’s main station. There are shops almost everywhere along these underground corridors. I also found a locations where some of the quarter of a million Indonesians in Taiwan gather.
Subscribe for the full video out this Sunday! See you there!

Plane shot upon departure in Indonesia 🇮🇩
A few days ago, a gunfire incident led to the suspension of Trigana Air flights to Dekai, Papua, in eastern Indonesia. On March 11, 2023, Trigana Air flight IL 222 to Jayapura was targeted and shot at by separatists belonging to OPM (West Papua Liberation Army). Although the 30-year-old Boeing 737-500 with tail number PK-YSC was able to land safely, this attack has prompted Trigana Air to temporarily suspend all flights to Dekai.
The OPM has been waging a separatist insurgency in Papua for decades, and this incident is just the latest example of their violence against civilian and government targets. The Indonesian government has been working to address the grievances of Papuan separatists, but this incident highlights the continuing challenges of resolving this longstanding conflict.
OPM also still holds hostage a New Zealand pilot flying for Indonesian airline Susi Air and the Indonesian military is active in the region.

Ashfall west of Mount Merapi 13 march 2023
We are some 10 km west of the Mount Merapi volcano in Central Java, Indonesia. There has been activity very recently with the volcano releasing this white ash cloud. Recorded 09.35 locsl time today.
Mount Merapi is quiet this morning, March 13, 2023
We are some 15 km south of the Mount Merapi volcano in Central Java, Indonesia to see if we can catch an eruption today. It's all pretty quiet now, but that can change in an instant.

AMAZING Ningxia Night Market in Taipei 🇹🇼
Get your blow torch out as we are headed to the Ningxia Night Market in Taipei!
During a dry spell in the rainy weather I had to deal with – not a big deal, just a little bit annoying as I’m only here for a short week – I visited the night market in the Ningxia area of Taipei. The market does not open until after dusk, so no need to arrive early.
As it’s mainly a food market, I would recommend to arrive here slightly hungry, so you can have a good look at the huge collection of food and drinks available, prepared for you right when you order. There’s only limited seating available though, so be sure to find a chair first if you want to eat at the market as well.
The complete video on my visit to the Ningxia Night Market will be out this Sunday. Be sure not to miss it by subscribing and maybe giving this video a like?
See you Sunday!

This pilot is a hostage 🇮🇩
This pilot is a hostage! A month ago, New Zealand pilot Philip Mark Mehrtens was taken hostage by an armed separatist group in Indonesia’s easternmost region of Papua. The group, known as OPM (Organization for a Free Papua), has a history of violence in the region and has claims it set fire to a Susi Air plane as well.
Indonesia is prioritizing Mehrtens' safety and has taken a persuasive approach to secure his release. New Zealand is also working with Indonesia to monitor and accelerate the handling of the situation. The exact whereabouts of Mehrtens are currently unknown but he is assumed to be uninjured and safe.
OPM separatists have released a video earlier on confirming that they have taken a hostage, demanding that Indonesia and the rest of the world recognizes the independence of the Papua region.
There has been low-level insurgency that flares up regularly. Indonesian media now calls the separatists ‘armed criminals’ to downplay their end goal of gaining independence.

Online taxi driver encounters Karen and wins! 🇮🇩
This Indonesian driver for an online taxi service shared his story of an Indonesian Karen passenger that was picked up from downtown Jakarta and wanted to travel to the international airport of Jakarta.
Shortly after pick-up, the driver asked the passenger what terminal her destination was, as there are three and it’s quite common for passengers to have the wrong terminal mentioned in their order. If he knows now, he can drop off the passenger at the correct terminal without additional charges.
Our Indonesian Karen passenger told the driver that it was of no concern of the driver and he shouldn’t ask, just drive. A little bit set back by this, the driver silently drove to the airport. It was there, just before arriving at the terminal that the Karen received a phone call from a friend.
"Where are you?"
"Terminal 2"
"We're departing from terminal 1!"
As the passenger was already in front of the wrong terminal now, she had do pay an additional 5 euro charge to get to the other side of the airport, which was "pretty expensive", but she finally agreed to.

This old Japanese brewery turned into a creative park 🇹🇼
The Huashan 1914 Creative Park, as it is called, is located on the site of the former ... ahem ... Taiwan Province Monopoly Bureau, Taipei Wine Factory, or later Fruit Wine Factory. After that moved out of the city of Taipei in 1987, it took the city government 20 years and an occupation of the site for it to be turned in a creative park where people from all kinds of lives and from across the globe meet, think and inspire each other.

The Taipei North Gate and Lungshan Temple 🇹🇼
Since it's mostly raining, we have to be a little bit creative here in Taipei, but we're managing just okay on our first day here. To avoid some of the wetness coming down from the skies over the city, I walked around in the tunnels of what basically is Taipei main trainstation, but also a mall? Anyway, today we're going to bring a visit to the only remaining part of the Taipei city wall at the North Gate before we take the metro to the Bangka Lungshan Temple, which is among the most popular temples in the city among locals and tourists alike.

Bright yellow tape fixes everything!?
Hold on to your seatbelts, folks, because AirAsia has taken their in-flight experience to a whole new level! Passengers on one of their flights were surprised to find their armrests covered in yellow tape, prompting one Facebook user to express his embarrassment that "foreigners must be thinking they are going to a very backward country."
But fear not, according to AirAsia, this was just a temporary measure to give their cabin a little makeover. It seems they were experiencing a shortage of spare parts, so they decided to get a little creative and use some vinyl tape to cover up those pesky armrests.
The airline assures us that this is not a safety issue, and they're working hard to get everything back to normal. Spare parts have finally arrived after what must have been a wild goose chase, and repairs are currently underway.
It's not every day that you get to fly on a plane that looks like it's been decorated by a kindergartener. But hey, AirAsia knows how to keep things interesting, right? Who needs boring old armrests when you can have ones covered in bright yellow tape?

At least the temperatures are nice ... 🇹🇼
Arriving in Taipei just the day before, one thing I have seen most is rain. It has been raining almost non-stop since my arrival and weather doesn't look dry for the days to come so I'll have to make the best of it. How do we do that? Well, travel outside when it looks dry and hope for the best. Basically.

Last minute preparations for Taipei 🇹🇼
When Taiwan announced it was to drop quarantine requirements for those traveling there, it didn’t take long for me to book a flight there. Since I hadn’t been to Taiwan before, I thought this would be a good opportunity to at least have a look around and to give it my quick judgement on whether I should visit later again or just stay away from it.
The first full video in this Taiwan series will be out this Sunday. If you like content about Taipei – I didn’t travel across the island because of certain adverse weather conditions which I will go into later – please consider subscribing as it helps me grow my channel.
See you this Sunday!

Hindu temples on Bali island: the quiet and crowded 🇮🇩
The Indonesian island of Bali probably doesn't need an introduction. Yes, I published an earlier video on how shamefully dirty the local beaches are (were?) but there are positive sides as well to this island of course. Today we make a quick stop at two Hindu temples located along the lakes of the Bratan volcano caldera in the central part of the island. One of these temples is a tourist hot spot, while the other one is not. Which one does appeal more to you?
