★ Schedule
Let me start off with I loved Taipei! I tried so many kinds of vegetarian dishes that were tasty and drank so much bubble tea! Also, I should have been more prepared for the walk(hike?) up Elephant Mountain. It was blazing hot and I was wearing skinny jeans, not the best workout gear. The view from the top was worth it.

We didn't manage to go to Tamsui but everything else went as planned

★ Extras
Book Taipei 101 tickets online to skip the long lines.

There aren't that many Halal places in Taipei but there are lots of vegetarian restaurants that sell so many kinds of dishes very cheap. Lots of mock-meat (made from tofu) cooked a hundred ways. Just search for vegetarian/vegan on Google maps or ask your hotel/hostel staff for recommendations.
