My last day in Taiwan during this visit, was spent with my wife, and visited easternmost point of Taiwan by my motorcycle. We found very small cafe (we can say, cafe at easternmost point of Taiwan), located at very small alley in the port. Only a few people knows this location as owner of this cafe does not make any advertisement.

Owner of this cafe is couple. Young husband just retired from his 10 years military service and wife. They bought very old house (looks very historical and made by Stone…) 2 years ago, and really enjoy their hobby Fishing (just 2 min walk to the beautiful fishing spot) , and bicycle every day.

They are still young, but decided to live in this location by earnings from this small cafe, only because they love coffee, they love beautiful ocean, and they love bicycle.

Price of coffee is extremely cheap ($1.5/cup) which is almost the same price with CVS, but taste very nice (much better than Starbucks). As I was amazed by taste and location of this cafe, I asked one question to owner “Should I recommend this cafe to my friends ?”, but answer was “I want to keep silent life. Please do not….”. (This Medium post was approved by owner specially)

Seems that there are not so many customers, and I guess their monthly revenue would be less than $700. Specially for the day we visited, nobody there other than us. This couple value the quiet and free life most, and do not want to increase customers intentionally. Their life is very simple, and seems very inconvenient. However, they intentionally pick this location, lifestyle, and love it. I enjoyed very much with atmosphere of their value, filled in this cafe.

They are master of Pirate Life as they purely live with their value, and focus on the things which resonate with them.

They made me feel very happy…..
