La Crosse and Taipei

I have tried to figure out the differences and similarities between Taipei and La Crosse’s night lives. I found out some interesting similarities between Taiwan and La Crosse. However, those two are different in many ways, because Taipei is the capital of Taiwan, and La Crosse is just a small city in the US.

Although La Crosse and Taipei are geographically different, their night lives are similar in several ways. I live in the mountainside in Taipei, and I like to watch movies with my friends. The same thing I do in La Crosse. In both cities, I like to go to parties at night. It’s the best activity at night. Also, my friend and I like to drive to the top of the mountain and enjoy the sunrise in Taipei. Similarly, I want to go to the bluffs, but I don’t have a car in La Crosse.

There are several differences between La Crosse and Taipei. La Crosse is a small town so many stores are close at 8pm. In Taipei a lot of stores close around midnight. Also in Taipei, there is a night market which means many kinds of booths are on the same street at night. I like that because there are many delicious dishes. On the other hand, night has a deep meaning which is drinking and parties. Although La Crosse has many bars, they are almost the same, which involve only drinking and talking to friends. In Taipei, I can go to different kinds of bars, such as lounge bars, pubs, and country bars, and I can choose whatever I like. Taipei has an activity that people can’t find in the La Crosse. This is a special event called karaoke where we sing for the whole night.

All in all, I need to stay in La Crosse for four or five years, so it is probably best for me to get rid of my Taipei’s night life memories that will never happen in La Crosse. Those two places certainly have differences and a few similarities as well.
