Terms and Conditions Agreement — Curated Cultural Experiences to Taipei & Taichung
Updated February, 2026

By registering for a Curated Cultural Experience to Taipei & Taichung with Tricia Pomering, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to the following Terms and Conditions. This agreement forms a binding contract between you (“the Participant”) and the Organizers.

1. General

  • This Curated Cultural Experience is organized and hosted by Tricia Pomering (TP) and Beth Eckstein (BE).

  • Participation in all Curated Cultural Experience activities is voluntary and undertaken at your own risk.

  • You are responsible for obtaining travel and medical insurance, which is strongly recommended.

  • Dietary requirements cannot be guaranteed or accommodated.

  • No pets or non-participating guests are allowed on site.

  • Any valuables brought to the Curated Cultural Experience are your responsibility.

  • Participants must comply with all Taiwanese entry requirements (e.g., free online Taiwan Arrival Card).

2. Registration

  • Your place is reserved only upon receipt of a 50% deposit or payment in full (which includes the deposit).

  • The deposit is non-refundable under any circumstances.

  • Registration is first come, first served, non-transferable, and resale of places is not permitted.

3. Payment Plan

If only the deposit is paid at registration:

  • Second payment of $1,118 is due by: October Curated Cultural Experience - June 15, 2026 (Single room = $1300)

  • Final payment of $1,118 is due by: October Curated Cultural Experience - August 15, 2026 (Single room = $1300)

An invoice will be emailed to you at the email address you registered with. Failure to pay within 14 days of the due date will result in forfeiture of your place, with no refund of payments made.

4. Deposit

To reserve your spot, a non-refundable deposit is required. This deposit supports the time, care, and arrangements that begin as soon as you register. If unexpected circumstances arise and you’re unable to join us, the deposit is not refundable.

5. Travel Insurance

Because life can be unpredictable, we highly recommend purchasing travel insurance that includes trip-cancellation coverage. This helps protect your investment should anything come up that prevents you from traveling. For your convenience, we’ll share a link to insurance providers.

6. Cancellations

These experiences are thoughtfully planned well in advance, with many details arranged specifically for each participant. Once your spot is reserved, we commit to accommodations, meals, staffing, and experiences just for you. Because of this, we’re unable to offer refunds if you need to cancel. If you need to cancel your participation, any requests for reimbursement would be made directly through your travel insurance provider.

The Organizers cannot be held responsible for events beyond their control (e.g., war, natural disasters, terrorism, civil unrest, or personal emergencies).

If cancellation is required due to such events (other than a Taiwan national lockdown), no refunds or compensation will be provided for travel or personal expenses.
If a national lockdown occurs, you may choose to transfer to a rescheduled Curated Cultural Experience or receive a refund of Curated Cultural Experience fees paid, minus any credit card or payment processing fees, which are non-refundable, and a $200 administrative fee to cover planning time already invested.

No refunds will be given for illness (including COVID-19) or inability to travel. Please ensure your insurance covers these scenarios.

7. Organizer Responsibility

The Organizers act solely as coordinators of the Curated Cultural Experience and are not responsible for the actions or omissions of third parties (such as airlines, hotels, transportation providers, or local guides).
Participants are responsible for their own travel arrangements and meeting all visa and entry requirements for Taiwan.

Liability Waiver — Curated Cultural Experience to Taipei & Taichung
Updated February, 2026

Liability Waiver and Assumption of Risk

By reserving your seat and participating in this Curated Cultural Experience, you understand that travel and group activities involve certain inherent risks that cannot be avoided. These may include transportation, weather, food, accommodations, and physical or cultural activities. You voluntarily assume all such risks and agree not to hold the Organizers (including TP and BE), their partners, employees, or contractors liable for any injury, loss, damage, or expense that may arise before, during, or after the Curated Cultural Experience.

You confirm that you are in suitable health to participate and are responsible for your own medical and travel insurance. In the event of a medical emergency, you authorize the Organizers to obtain care on your behalf and accept full financial responsibility for any costs incurred.

By checking the box at registration, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this waiver and agree to it voluntarily.

Other Terms

In the case of emergency, natural disaster, or venue cancellation, the Organizers reserve the right to change the venue, schedule, or teaching staff without prior notice.
Any disputes will be governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, USA.
