Problem solving; the Chinese way Ons derde weekend in Beijing wordt compleet ingenomen door de company training. Hierover heb ik al eerder bericht. Het begint vrijdagochtend om 9.00 uur met een toespraak van de vice voorzitter van People to People (P2P) programma, Craig Masenkofski (ofzoiets). Dit programma is een professionele uitwisseling van beroepsgroepen uit Amerika naar verschillende continenten, waaronder ook Azië en China. Dit houdt in dat Amerikaanse artsen, leraren, rechters e.d. hu...
Beijing, China sandrasjraarWeek 4; eindelijk werk Na een druk en vermoeiend weekend werd er maandag toch gewerkt. Om negen uur waren we weer van de partij op het kantoor. Wij behoorden samen met Femke en Wendy, Chen Qu, Xinli en Xiuli en nog wat andere mensen op kantoor tot de harde kern. De rest van de werknemers hadden zich een vrije dag gepermitteerd. We zagen Kees van Galen nog even op kantoor, hij ging met Ping een week naar Guizhou om te kijken of er mogelijkheden zijn voor VNC om daar reizen naartoe aan te gaan ...
Beijing, China sandrasjraarWe haven't actually seen the city yet. We arrived late last night after a pretty uneventful hop over from Tokyo. I spent most of the flight lolling in and out of consciousness. Our guide met us at the airport and shuttled us over to the Sino-Swiss hotel near the airport. The guide is a feisty little thing who speaks French, English and obviously Chinese. She also speaks a strange mix which is hard to decipher. Joanna was wondering for about half an hour what the sharpass was that would take u...
Beijing, China thesteersWe boarded the plane for Beijing. It was on time, however, there was a lot of wind and that made the flight a bit longer. They gave us a snack called "Mélange du Soleil Levant" from Sainte-Foy Quebec, of all places! They were like corn chips, really good! For lunch, we had a choice of fish and beef. Tim and I chose the beef. It was really good. It came with rice, broccoli, dinner roll and some fruit for desert. There's a big TV screen and every other show is in English. We watched a few movie...

... the Lonely Planet book, point it out on his map and wait while he consulted with another cabbie! Finally we drove off. It took everything I had not to give into the tears that were welling up as the frustration got the better of me. The cabbie had to stop at one point and ask a man on the street for further directions. We finally found the street but I had to walk a few blocks as it was a one way street and he wasn’t willing to go around the block.
The hostel did ...
... Sydney Olympic games to be a torch bearer, you had to be able to run and carry the torch for at least 4km as they ran the thousands of kilometres around the entire nation. In China, they used the more torch bearers, to make it look like a bigger relay but the physical distance that was run was minute with less than 10km in a day. Oh well, that is the way things are done here. It is all about the show and how to make things look good despite the reality going on behind the scenes.
Miyun, China livewireshock... all my packs eventually found the hotel! My hostel is really nice, clean and tidy, with really nice dorms, which are all kitted out ikea style with posh pine bunks and good big size lockers. The only downside to things (and its kinda a big one) is that there are no other single travellers around!! at all!!! Theres lots of groups of german and french people but no single travellers that I can share some of my travels with. Its a bit of a pain, and so ...
Beijing, China emilybs... me a good 20 minutes to figure out how to add the money onto my phone, but i got it going eventually. i stayed in a hostel for 80 yuan, about 10 bucks, with 3 other korean guys who didn't know any chinese or french, but knew a tiny amount of english. they were real nice as far as i could tell. anyways, i locked up my luggage and started walking around. i had to ask 3 people where tiananmen square was because they'd give me ...
Beijing, China emotion... of the region. I've read a lot about the heavenly landscape of the Jiuzhaigou Scenic Area, the waterfalls and snow-capped peaks of the Yellow Dragon Valley, the shrines and monuments, the Panda Breeding and Research Center in Chengdu and lots more. I think, this is the best opportunity to kick off a China tour! More details are available at: http://www.abroadchina.net/left/english .asp
