... shop promptly took my next door, which had phones in the entrance. It looked kinda promising. The woman who I then spoke to, didn't appear to speak any English, but tried to convince me to stay in the hostel upstairs. Amazingly, just by talking to me, she must have learnt a lot of English, as it dramatically improved when she slowly realized that I would not be staying anywhere other than where I had booked. After 10 minutes, she gave up and ...

... home with the tickets after a slight problem of getting a bum steer from a woman on how to get here, and I got the computer connected to the Internet which was great. Then we went out to dinner with Darmen to the nearby King Roast Duck restaurant which served the traditional Peking Duck we felt we had to have on our first night in Beijing! The food was delicious but it ended up being a very ...

... and thus the most authentically revolutionary. But it has continued to the present day. In 2001, the National People's Congress passed a law proclaiming an official "National Humiliation Day."

... de markt in Guangzhou waar de SARS vandaan komt (inderdaad veel viezigheid maar het is blijkbaar al erg opgeschoond sinds de SARS uitbraak) en hebben we nog wat gewinkeld (voorlopig de laatste keer voor mij want ik pas steeds alleen de enorm lelijke drollenvangers en niets van die schattige goedkope bloesjes en jurkjes). Vanuit daar naar Changsha waar we meteen doorgingen naar Shaoshan, de geboortestad van Mao Zedong, heel apart dit te zien. Ik lees op dit moment de ...

I'm almost on holidays! 4 exams and 44 hours from now (not that I'm counting down or anything...) I'll be starting my 5 and half weeks of vacation! Everyone here's getting a little burned out from school, so it will be a much appreciated bit of time off for sure. I've been planning a trip to Harbin in northeastern China with a few friends for a little while, so this weekend we finally had to go buy ...

... of the wall. The wall itself was about 3m wide and as you looked along the length, the wall meandered and twisted off into the distance, hugging the topography. We had packed fruit and water, including our fat face flask, so we were ready for the challenge. We set off to the left and admired the wall as we went. Having been rebuilt 3 times, the last time in 1805, it was with a sense of history that we imagined how hard it must have been to ...

... people bend is just insane, and they are so strong! After the show, we picked up our stuff from the hostel and booked it to the train station to catch our overnight train to Qing Dao. This whole trip in China (not including tickets to shows, or shopping of course) costed me about $281 US dollars. That included the Great Wall, two nights in a hostel, a 25 hour train ride to Beijing, and an overnight train to Qing Dao. A lot of people stayed in nice hotels or did SAS trips which ...
