In May 2026, Taiwan Digital Fest took its flagship event to Taitung and Hualien for a full month. Of about 250 participants, 176 were foreign nationals — but what surprised the organisers was that many had lived in Taiwan for years without ever visiting the east coast.
Twenty international and Taiwanese digital nomads returned to Taitung for three days in August 2026, crossing the East Rift Valley, the South-link Coast and Taitung Expo. The itinerary worked by subtraction: one deep experience a day, village walks run by the community with the fees staying there. Two independent samples in our annual report both named Taitung the place nomads most want to go. This trip took that finding into the field.
From June 1–8, 2025, TDF 2025 brought eight days of digital nomad energy to Taipei — co-working sessions, Web3 talks, coliving exchanges, 24 startup pitches, and a global pledge ceremony. Here's the full story.
