Landed in Taipei and it's 4.30am.

My sister is helping me.

Alright, I'm in.

This is wild.

Oh my goodness.

Oh my gosh.

This is my favorite brand.

Oh my gosh, I follow him on YouTube.

Alright, I am at Johan's, who is really nice.

And I got some perfumed standees and socks, because I don't buy stationeries at these events.

And you get super cute mascots like these.

Why is it so big?

I'm the first in line.

The little canines have so many cute things.

No dog, no life.

Alright. 2D sighting!

My daughter is super cute.

Oh my gosh, look at the backdrop.

This is so cute. 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, all mine. 24, 25. 24, 25.

I'm at the Magic Station.

So many penguins.

Another 2D sighting. 2D.

This duck is ridiculously cute.

The last 2D sighting of day 1.

She is exhausted.

Alright, the line is wild.

It's around 2pm.

Wraps around and folds.

And there's a plane.

Alright.

Rainy morning.

Off to get breakfast.

This is the smell of Taiwan.

So we're heading towards the queue again.

It might be a long one, but thankfully because we have the business class, we'll be able to get in soon.

Today my strategy is different.

But still, taking advantage of the open hours for businesses, for a very relaxing and cooler shopping experience.

So cute.

So cute.

So you have these artists.

The more elaborate setups like this one.

And then you also come closer towards this end and there's like the smaller creators.

But these are the ones that are more brand collaborations.

They're very established, they have cartoons.

And a lot of Taiwanese lifestyle goods have these on their housewares.

Cups, dishes, microwavable containers, etc.

This sweet house is also a very popular one.

This one's personally my favorite, Lady Rabbit and Mr. Chu.

Mr. Chu dominates stationeries in the middle school to high school kind of sector.

Oh my god, these are great.

This one's Lil Yachty's studio.

This year they went for a zoo theme.

And here is more of the small creators.

You have Loewe Illustration, Loewe Design.

This one has a lot of different artists together.

I really like.

And the kind of cafe has a lot of the coolest setups, for sure.

Avocado Mori has one of the cutest displays.

These ceramic little birds will look so good on your desk.

You can buy socks.

This is the gashapon section.

My sister's really good at gashapon.

Amazing stamps, sets, stickers.

Thank you again.

Have a good day.

Bye.

This dude is so funny.

Ugly cute.

Rice is Beautiful is another brand that I really like.

With the ducks and the melon soda.

And this is Do Not Like Sunday.

They did like an archeology theme.

Style.

They are very famous YouTubers too.

Pick up some stuff.

And this is Cafe En Hope, which is a Korean artist.

And so most of these are poodles, but I think they look like cookies.

It was a golden doodle.

Okay, we have entered the big IP realm.

This is Chihuahua.

And then Bugacat.

Insanely cute.

Bugacat.

So that was a dinosaur, not something questionable.

Alright, we have entered Chaos Region.

There's a bear.

Green caterpillar like items.

Well actually, for sure.

It's not that bad.

Alright, we have officially entered the No Floor.

Hi.

So speaking of ugly cute things that we don't understand.

This booth is incredibly popular.

But I have no idea what they are.

They're just green neon-ish bottles.

And cats.

Good inversion!

Okay, you're really lucky.

Superbee is also super cute.

They each have these cats with different expressions.

And the theme of their booth is the records.

The style of this one is super vintage, retro, and cute.

They show some postcards.

Alright, this new brand.

I really like them.

They're called Little Room Studio.

Really wonderful characters.

Postcards, stickers.

The feature is a single bra.

Judy's suitcase sighting.

David Cook, which is that amazing artist with the cats and the fruits.

I bought a bunch from them.

So we're at the pit stop resting portion of this day.

We're both a little tired.

The show is really in full swing.

So many people.

Gotta flip it.

Judy's sighting, day 2.

So today the crowd is significantly larger because there's no more queues outside.

And everyone's in there!

We're done!

Oh my goodness.

The queue moves much faster today.

Goodbye, Creative Expo.

Alright, somehow I ended back here again.

Enabled by Judy!

Why did we do this to ourselves?

Surprise third day of Creative Expo.

We're doing this thing.

No, no, no, for me the third one.

Like the night version.

So, it'll be fun.

Alright Judy, what's our goal today?

We are going to, where are we going?

We're going to spend more money.

We're going to buy a lot of ducks.

That's what we're buying.

I'm buying ducks.

Get all our ducks in a row.

So today I'm zen.

The ground's kind of messy.

I only bought one thing so far.

Okay, sorry, there's plenty of things in there.

But this is the biggest thing I wanted.

And the crowd is slightly thinner at 6pm.

So I'm going to take my time.

So at the end of the third day, here's my damage.

And we're shutting down the show.

Shopping success.

Everyone's closing and we're just heading towards the exit.

Oh my gosh.

The ultimate creative expo experience.

Turns out the third day near the ending is the best time to shop.

So I'm back again.

And my mom.

Fourth day of creative expo.
