Grace Mitchell

Grace Mitchell is the Culture & Travel Editor at The Taiwan Times, writing on world culture, heritage sites, museums and travel guides, with reporting and travels spanning dozens of countries.

She has a talent for drawing the history and humanity out of an old city, an art gallery or a regional dish, letting readers understand a place before they even set off. Her travel and reference coverage is among the most-read evergreen content on the site.

She believes travel and cultural understanding are the gentlest yet most enduring form of people-to-people diplomacy — the world often begins to know Taiwan through a single good encounter.
