Bliss English Club

My Dear Blissers,

Have you ever encountered a place with….

Cozy atmosphere,

Soft lighting

Sounds of flipping over pages,

Drifting tender music

Aroma of coffee, herbal tea, fragrance.

Interior Designs of Avant-garde, Nostalgic, Creepy Murder Ink, American Country Style, Hakka Flower…..

Then walking out with your mouth curve up and blissful feelings…

Sharpen your five senses to Jessica Yang’s meeting on Aug. 18, 2018:

Jessica Yang’s Introduction:

You won’t believe this!

There are more than 200 multiple independent bookstores in Taiwan,

It became unique city scenery and create culture base,

A Book store with cafe is one of the typical styles

Bookstore with restaurant means the owner also has good cooking skills.

Bookstore providing Couch Surfing means the owner welcomes the people worldwide,

Bookstore with B&B means the owner welcome you to stay and read the book all day long, some may allow you to buy a book to offset drink consumption.

Or even welcome you borrow book back home for free!

There are more and more bookstores holding their own Corporate Social Responsibilities because they have their own idea to make the society better or support particular issue and become Social Enterprise platform!

Children English bookstore encourage kids start reading English from little

Bookstores display farm products which means the owner supporting nature growing framers,

Some Bookstores support miscarriage of justice by providing free lunch boxes for criminals and hiring them after they released which means they focus on human right.

Therefore, please support independent book stores!

Have nice coffee shop in a day, it’s very important for people in the weekend or during trip, if we can stop by those independent book stores and have nice coffee reading and then we also become part of city scenery in a day, is that great?
