Find rooms for rent and flatmates in Taipei: 8 reasons to live in share house of BORDERLESS HOUSE

Hello everyone!! This is BORDERLESS HOUSE Taipei. Are you the one who is curious about the foreign culture? Are you finding flatmates to share daily life and learn from each other? Are you interested in learning foreign language? ……If so, the share house of BORDERLESS HOUSE will be a good choice for you!!

8 reasons to live in the Borderless House ▼▼▼

1. For Taiwanese, you can live with flatmates from different countries

Since our concept is to provide the opportunity to cultivate international cultural exchange, we try to balance the ratio of locals to foreigners 50:50. So, half of your flatmates will be foreigners, and you can experience the international environment  by simply living in a house without going abroad!

2. For Foreigners, you can live with many locals and adapt to local life more easily

If you come to Taiwan to learn Chinese and would like to explore the culture here, living with locals can help you know the culture deeper and get some tips about daily life you may not have in other places. Also it will be a good chance to put language skills into practice EVERYDAY!

3. The community is like a FAMILY

The people who live in the BORDERLESS HOUSE must have motivation for communicating with others and are eager to experience different cultures. As a result, this is a community which is created by people having the same goal or sharing the similar values. (For example, they want to improve the language or make friends from different countries!) Also we ask tenants to live at least one month so that you will have more chance to interact and hangout with your flatmates! ★See the sharing of one of our foreign tenants: Samuel

4. It’s convenient to go everywhere from the house

Our houses are located in Taipei city and mostly near the Taipei metro station, so it will usually take you less than 10 minutes to walk to house from the station! If you want to travel to other spots in Taipei, it’s also convenient to go by metro system. ★See the list of our share houses by area: Click here

5. Each house is equipped with basic facilities.

There are living room, dining room and kitchen in every house. In common space, we provide basic facilities such as rice cooker, refrigerator, microwave, washing machine, TV, WIFI, etc. In each room, there are air conditioner, desks, chairs, and beds, etc. You can bring a bed set by yourself or rent it from us (1,500 NTD just one time). That is to say, you can move in just with one luggage! You don’t have to worry about the basic facilities you need for daily life. ★See detailed information: About House Facilities

6. We hold activities and events for our tenants

It’s a good chance to meet other tenants from different house by joining our events! We had some events such as having a picnic, Halloween party and Christmas dinner last year. In the future we may also arrange some activities like going hiking, playing board games, etc. You can have fun with tenants from all over the world! ★See the events held last year: Picnic Party Halloween Party Christmas Dinner

7. House Exchange Program: Only for our tenants

The period of stay can be one week to a whole month.

How is life in Taipei, Taiwan? -Interview with German tenant

Hello!! This is BORDERLESS HOUSE in Taipei!! We have a tenant from Germany who currently stays at BORDERLESS HOUSE TAIPEI. He has joined language program and usually interacts with his partner and staffs humorously.

We would like to introduce his life in Taipei and his own stories!

Self-introduction

Hello I’m Philipp from Germany, and I’m 24 years old. I studied music before and I play the saxophone. After studying, now I come to Taiwan for learning language and have Chinese course here. Because my girlfriend is from Taiwan, I want to understand her culture more!

Could you share your daily life in shared house?

I sleep a lot (laugh). But from Monday to Friday, I have classes from 8:40-11:30 in TKU. After that, I go to sleep again and do my homework. In fact, this is my second time to come to Taiwan, I traveled to Kenting, Tainan, and Hualien with my girlfriend last August.

Why do you choose BORDERLESS HOUSE in the first beginning? 

Because I want to practice Chinese with other Taiwanese housemates! Is there anything difficult or tough for you to live in Taiwan? The weather, and maybe the mosquitoes. Last year I have problems with mosquitoes’ bite, but I didn’t have serious problems with it this time. There were only two in my room. (And he slapped them!)

What impressed you the most during your stay in Borderless House or in Taiwan?

In the first day I came, my housemates did the karaoke, they love the karaokay! They just played the song on Youtube and sang with it. Dance and sing! As for other experiences, one of the cultural shock was that I found there was no sidewalk when I once went on the street. That’s very strange for Germany. Another was that my girlfriend’s parents took me to the restaurant and made me eat the animals’ organs and frog legs. They told me, “It’s chicken chicken, so just eat it eat it.” (note: Many people who had tried frog said that it tasted like chicken.) I ate very much and I thought that was chicken. But I realized the truth after my girlfriend’s friend told me.

Speaking of Taiwan, what is the most attractive point for you?

The food, very nice and helpful people. I love the dumplings, beef noodles and teppanyaki. Maybe the nature as well.

With your experiences, could you kindly give some advice to those who are going to come to Taiwan?

The good thing is that if you lost something, people here are always friendly and helpful! (Picture in the mountain.) (He joined the language program and practiced Chinese with his Taiwanese partner Michelle.) Thanks Philipp for sharing his experiences!! We had good time chatting with him and hope that he can achieve his goal on learning Chinese 🙂 Check BORDERLESS HOUSE in Taipei>> http://www.borderless-house.com/tw/all/ Check Tenant’s only Program>> Free House Exchange http://www.borderless-house.com/houseexchange/ Language Exchange http://www.borderless-house.com/languageexchange/

FREE HOUSE EXCHANGE Rosanne Seoul Taipei

Hello! This is Borderless House!! Today we would like to share the review of our lovely tenant Rosanne, who joined the House Exchange Program in Taipei from 12/16 to 12/25. She came from the Borlderless House in Seoul, and stayed in ZHONGXIAO DUNHUA 1 for one week to explore Taiwanese culture!   Let’s see what experiences she got during this stay ♥ :;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*   Rosanne van der Leer (She comes from the Netherlands!)   Q1. Why did you apply for the house exchange program? Rosanne: I am currently doing an internship in Seoul and I had some free days, so I decided to apply for the house exchange program to visit Taipei. I want to spend my holidays in Taipei to escape the Korean winter for a week , do some sightseeing and experience different Asian culture. Because I was by myself, I applied for this program since it is nice to meet people who are already living in Taipei and who could give me some tips 😉   Q2. How was your exchange? Rosanne: Very Good! All the housemates were really nice and welcoming. I learned a lot about the Taiwanese culture and tried lots of different food from vendors on the street. I love night market and the people were really nice. The house exchange program itself was really well organized and the staff was very professional.   Q3. What is the most memorable episode? Rosanne: When I arrived I was immediately invited to the Borderless Christmas dinner. This was very last minute but the Borderless House Taipei staff was very kind to let me participate. It was a nice way to get into the Christmas spirit as well as to meet new people from different nationalities, plus I even scored a Christmas present 😉 Furthermore, I found the housemates to be very kind and welcoming, they took me to the night market and let me try stinky tofu! .   Q4. Do you have any comments? Rosanne: It is a fun way to see new places and meet new people, especially when you are by yourself. The staff organized everything very well and I had a blast.   Q5. Do you have any opinions for improving this program? Rosanne: Keep up the good work! Everything was very well organized. The only thing I was struggling with was that when I arrived I didn’t know how to reach the Borderless staff member, since I didn’t know you were using the Line messenger application. If you would have emailed me that in advance, I could have sent a message when arriving at the airport to inform you I was running late.   Here are the great pictures taken by her! ➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤ (National Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall)   (The view of Taipei city from Elephant mountain)   (The scene of streets)   ➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤ Rosanne told us that her favorite food in night market is roasted potatoes rather than stinky tofu , but she did has the courage to try new things! (lol) She also considered Taiwanese people very enthusiastic to talk to foreigners. In fact, we were also touched by her lively sharing 🙂   Free House Exchange program can provide more opportunities for our tenants to meet and stay with local people in the country and have a real cultural experience!! Since our houses are in Taiwan, Japan, and Korea, you can stay one of our houses for FREE!!   ✫ If you are interested in our program, please don’t feel hesitate to join the program! http://www.borderless-house.com/houseexchange/houseexchange_form/ ✫ You can check the details of this program on our website blow. http://www.borderless-house.com/houseexchange/

Event report: 【Borderless House Christmas Party 2016】 who was the winner of 1 month rent free ticket!?

Hello, this is Chisa from Borderless House. 
 
On 18th of December, we have hosted 【Borderless House X’MAS Party 2016】!!!
We would like to thank everybody for joining us! 
 
This year the party was held based on the theme: “hirogaru, tsunagaru” (directly translated as “binding together and widening”),
meaning it’s an opportunity for all the guests ad friends to get together, 
regardless of nationality, language and which houses the guests are from. 
 
Here is how the event went: 
 
The party was held at an Italian restaurant in Shibuya -the warm and cozy atmosphere welcomed all our guests!
 
We were the MC -thank you all for your patience! 
 
The party began with a warm up game before the toast; “Hi five self introduction game!”
The guests need to do hi five with 3 people when their eyes meet, and introduce themselves 
(name, nationality, which house he/she is from, hobby and etc.)
After the self introduction is done with 3 people, the guests are handed their first drinks and a BINGO card. 
 
The toast was called as follows: “To the many encouters of tonight! Kanpai (=cheers)!”
 
Looks like the guests have warmed up at the first free talk session, 
and are feeling much more comfortable mingling with the ones that just met!
The guests were to fill in the blanks by writing in each others’ names.
 
Then the next game was the highlight of the event: BINGO! 
 
Everybody was all pumped up to become winners! 
After the 7 winners were chosen, there was a lottery to decide which winner is going to win which prize”
 
The guy in the middle won the booby prize…(=a throat coat candy, swabs and a sushi key chain)
 
He won the second prize…(= tickets to Yokohama Cosmo World for 4 people)
 
I hope he can go with all his housemates!
And last but not least, he was the first prize winner! 
 
Congratulations on winning 1 month free rent ticket!!! 
“I will throw a big house party and everybody here is invited!” was the comment he made on the spot 🙂
Let’s look forward to the party then? Omedeto gozaimasu!
 
 
The party ended in a great success, thanks to all our fellow tenants and their friends for joining us!
There was also an after party which half of the guests have gone to! Awesome!
 
We are more than happy that the party became a wonderful opportunity for our tenants from different houses to get to know each other,
and most of all, to have a merry Christmas together! 
 
We hope to see you at the next event!

FREE HOUSE EXCHANGE Ran Taipei Tokyo

Hi, this is BORDERLESS HOUSE in Taiwan! We want to share that one of our tenants, Ran from BORDERLESS HOUSE TAIPEI have visited Tokyo from November 7 to November 17 for 10 days with House Exchange program. He stayed in BORDERLESS HOUSE Sakurajosui1house. His introduction is below. :;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;:: ☺ Ran’s brief introduction Randall is from America and worked as a food product developer for four years, now he is in Taiwan learning mandarin! He chose to stay in BORDERLESS HOUSE is because he wants to use this opportunity to make some new friends and practice his Mandarin. He also likes to go outside enjoying anything nature!! Let’s see what brought him to attend this program first! Since I needed to renew my visa for Taiwan and this opportunity proves free boarding I figured why not! Coming home to a house full of housemates is also much more fun than returning to an empty hotel/hostel room♥   ✔Let’s check his feedback after he came back from Tokyo!!! :;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:*ﾟ:;;::;;:*:;;::;;:* (Ran is a left one ^^ with Fuji Mountain and his new roommates) Q1. How was your exchange? My trip was great. Last time I was in Japan I was mostly limited to one area. This time I used the money saved on housing to purchase a JR Pass. I started my trip in Sapporo Hokkaido. I stayed there for a couple of nights before taking a sleeper bus to Hakodate. The next morning my JR Pass started and I took the Shinkansen to Tokyo to start my stay in the share house. From Tokyo I was able to travel to Nikko, Kiso Valley, Kofu, Kyoto/Nara, Kaurizawa, Niigata, and Fujigoko mostly to go hiking. Coming from the sweaty jungles of Taiwan, It was really refreshing to be able to breathe the cool air and see all the autumn colors.   Q2.What is the most memorable episode? Going up Mt. Mitutouge/Kinashiyama with my housemates. From the side we started on the hike was supposed to be around 3-4 km to the top with an ascent of 1700m. It was an exhausting few hours to make it to the top. But the view of Mt. Fuji and the surrounding area was worth it. By the time we made it down the other side the sun was setting.   Q3. Do you have any comments who consider? My housemates were a fun bunch to talk to and made my trip more enjoyable. I really do wish I was able to stay longer than the week and a half I was there. Let’s see photos he shared below!! ➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤ (Hakodate) (Sapporo) (Tokyo Dome) (Nara with cute deer) ➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤➤ He went to so many places during his trip in Japan! And which also make us feel very happy and very enjoyable when we read his wonderful sharing! He used the money saved on housing to purchase a JR Pass which makes us feel very glad that we could support our tenants’ trip.

「What is it like to live in Taiwan?」- Life of Foreign tenant in Taiwan, Taipei

  Hello, this is BORDERLESS HOUSE in Taipei! We have a tenant from France who currently stays at BORDERLESS HOUSE TAIPEI. He has a good relationship not only with his housemates but also with BORDERLESS HOUSE staff. He joins many events which held by BORDERLESS HOUSE and made a lot of friends here. Sometimes he shares his life in Taiwan with us, it seems he really enjoys his living here.

Today we would like to have a long interview with him and let him share his joyful experience to more people!

-First, please introduce yourself!!

Hi, my name is Samuel. I come from France. I’m 27 years old. After graduation from business school, and before coming to Taiwan, I worked 3 years in Paris, as a consultant in Digital Marketing. I like sport, all kinds, and most specially basketball, which I practice since I’m child. During my free time, I am also watching series and movies, and go hanging out with my friends. (Samuel joined Taiwan’s National Day celebration.)  

-What reason bring you to Taiwan? And what is your main purpose to come here?

When I was at University I met few Taiwanese people. We then became really good friends but unfortunately they had to go back to Taiwan and I found a job in Paris. Three years later I decided to have a new experience and come live in Asia. Taiwan was then an obvious choice for me. Also because I heard a lot of good things about this island. I am so glad to be there. I am currently learning Chinese at Chinese culture university in Taipei, and hope to find a job here later and settle down for few more years maybe. (Samuel came to Taiwan for meeting Taiwanese friends and learning Mandarin. He attended a global culture program as an ambassador of culture exchange. He has taught Taiwanese children French in an elementary school!)   -How long have you been here so far? Please share your life during your stay in Taiwan with everyone! Time flies… I have been here for six months already. I really enjoyed it so far. It’s so different than France. I discover many things. I think the life in Taiwan is easy and convenient. It’s also a good start for westerners in Asia. Weekdays I go to school to study Chinese, on weekend and holidays I take time to visit Taiwan. I already went to many places: Hualien, Taidung, Ludao, Tainan, Taichung… I like to go around Taipei, sightseeing, hiking or just relaxing at the beach. There is so much to do here! I also practice Tai Chi (太極) since few months ago, which is a way for me to discover more about Asian cultures. As sport lover, I also go running around Da’an park and play basketball with my roommates. There are many places to play basketball and it’s a good way to meet Taiwanese people. (Samuel has traveled a lot and has visited many beautiful places in Taiwan.)

-Speaking of Taiwan, what is the most attractive point for you?

As I said, Taiwan has a good … in France. Before I came I heard many good things about here. Compare to China, cities in Taiwan are smaller and life is probably less stressful. I confirm it is good living in Taiwan for foreigners. I think people are nice, helpful and open-minded. Life is not too expensive, and very convenient. There are shops open 24 hours and restaurants or street stands everywhere. You should try the night markets! Moreover, you can go wherever you want very quickly, nice to travel around!   (Samuel loves Taiwanese people and the environment so much. He deeply experienced the local life here.)

-Is there anything which is difficult or tough for you to live in Taiwan?

First, of course the language barrier, especially in restaurants. It is difficult to find someone who speak English there, and as the food is so different than what we are used to in France, it was sometimes tough for me. I also needed to get adapted to the weather here, very hot during summer, and often wet. I never saw so much rain.  

-Then let’s talk about your life in BORDERLESS HOUSE! How do you like your life here? Could you share us your daily life in a share house? It’s great!! It’s really great! I felt like home from the first day. The atmosphere is very friendly and warm. Despite the different cultures and numbers of people living all together, everything is going well. I usually like to have many people around me, which make me really happy here! We often chat on the common area, having dinner together or maybe some drinks. Taking care to each other, as family. I feel I’m so lucky to have my housemates, really! And of course it also a good way for me to practice Chinese as half of tenants is Taiwanese and most of other also learn Chinese.

(The atmosphere in BORDERLESS HOUSE is very friendly and warm which makes Samuel joyful.)  

-So why do you choose BORDERLESS HOUSE in the first beginning? And how do you find BORDERLESS HOUSE? I was looking for a shared house in Taipei and I thought the concept offered by BORDERLESS HOUSE is really interesting. It was a good opportunity for me to live with locals which is not always easy to find when you don’t speak the main language. And I think it was a both easy and secure way to find a house in another country. The staff replied me very quickly and were so nice to me. I found BORDERLESS HOUSE with Taiwanese portal site called 591.

(Samuel with BORDERLESS HOUSE staff. He thinks staffs are very helpful for anything needed, if something happened in the house also in tenants’ daily life.)  

-What was the best part and the most impressive thing that happened during your stay in Borderless House?

It is very important for me to have a comfortable place to live. Which I found thanks to BORDERLESS HOUSE. I feel lucky to have such nice people around me. My stay here made the experience much more valuable and memorable for sure!

-You joined many events which held by BORDERLESS HOUSE, like board game event and Halloween party! And you’ve just came back from Tokyo with our Free House Exchange Program!

Yes, I am always willing to participate to events organized by BORDERLESS HOUSE. It’s an opportunity to meet people, and it’s always lot of fun! We usually share similar values and as we all live in BORDERLESS HOUSE, I think it makes the first contact easier. I really enjoyed my stay in Tokyo. Thanks to the exchange program, this make my trip cheaper and much easier as well. I was also very happy to meet other tenants there. We shared a lot about our past experiences, at BORDERLESS HOUSE, in our respective city, and before. (Samuel joined BORDERLESS HOUSE picnic event in summer and Halloween event.)  

-With your experience, could you kindly give some advice to those who are considering to come to Taiwan or who is going to move to Taipei soon?

First I would say “don’t hesitate, Taiwan is definitely a good choice”. I also deeply recommend them to consider BORDERLESS HOUSE. I know sometimes sharing room could be a barrier for some, but really this accommodation is great, and the houses are big enough to have your own space. Also, staffs are very helpful for anything we need, if something happened in the house and also in our daily life. (Samuel also joined our Tenant’s only*Free House Exchange Program to got to Tokyo.)   Thank you very much for Samuel’s sharing! We hope every one who come to Taiwan can have a great time and enjoy the life every day here like Samuel!   Check BORDERLESS HOUSE in Taipei>> http://www.borderless-house.com/tw/all/ Check Tenant’s only Program>> Free House Exchange http://www.borderless-house.com/houseexchange/ Language Exchange http://www.borderless-house.com/languageexchange/
