Teahouses and lanes nestled in the hills of Jiufen, Taiwan
A great journey starts with someone who knows the place.

An ordinary day for you.
A whole new world for someone else.

There is more to a city than the landmarks on a map. A meal at the market, a walk at sunset, a small shop where neighbours take a break. LOCAMIE connects travellers with the places and stories you know firsthand.

Let what you love shape the journey

A scene worth remembering
