To make thinks easier, I always tell Taiwanese that my home is Vancouver. If I tell them Nanoose Bay, I know I would get a lot of blank stares. Not that you can really blame them, even people on Vancouver Island may not know about Nanoose.

Nanoose Bay is located on the eastern side of Vancouver Island and Vancouver Island is located off the west coast of Canada.

Population of Nanoose Bay: 4820.

Population of Taipei: 2.6 million.

I captured these images from google maps. Very cool.
