China - Blogabond

I heard you got some rain... looks like we're in for the same.

We've had a fantastic time this week! We had a tour around an ancient village, had some taiji, calligraphy and chinese knitting lessons and roamed about the countryside. The weather has been pretty awful, wet and rainy and cold, but we've managed to enjoy ourselves. We climbed Moon Hill, which...

Hey, hope you like all the photos! Only a small selection but they took so long to upload! Also the rotate tab wouldn't work so you're just going to have to look sideways!

Gongcheng - the real O.C.

We have left our beautiful little Fengyan for the small but busy Yangshuo, a very touisty town on the Li River. Here you will find more Western people than anywhere else except Beijing, Shanghai, Xi'an or Hong Kong. On the down side it means we don't feel much like the first intrepid explorers...

getting hardcore

OK well before I forget I just want to say that my fear of insane taxi drivers, lack of road regulations, and the complete insanity that is traffic in Chongqing is indeed justified. Today I was leaving the gym and I heard some chaos. I looked up and there was an unconscious girl who had been...

Oodels of noodles！

We go back to Fengyan in a few hours so I thought I should take this opportunity at the hostel to write again while I can。Yesterday we went to Seven Star Park which is a huge park in Guilin with 7 karsts that form the shape of the big dipper （although you can only see that if you are in a...

Ni hao! Wo jiao Yan Yi Li!

Hello! It's the end of week one and I've so much to write about I don't know where to begin! I arrived in Guilin after a long flight and a very long wait at Shanghai airport. I was met at Guilin airport by Ting, who is one of the co-ordinators of my program, and she took me to the hostel in...

Oh the green green hills....of Guilin

Hello, just wrote a very long entry but lost the internet and now it's gone. I'll try again soon but I thought I'd try to write something so you know I'm still alive! I'm having lots of fun, surrounded by the most amazing mountains, staying in a beautiful traditional village and we've had a few...

The last piece to the traveling puzzle

I went to Xian; home of the terracotta warriors and delicious Muslim food. We spent about 8 days there in total. Because of our carefree lifestyle we would get out of bed around 2 o’clock maybe later and not to go bed until around 4 or 5. It actually started becoming a problem when we started...

Xi'an and Juizghou National Park

So I say goodbye to Om in Hohhot...with the idea of meeting up again in Chengdu... and my farewells to Hohhot and the Anda Guesthouse...and board my second train in China, an overnighter to Xi'an, the home of the Terracotta Warriors...! I'd seen pictures and documentary by Dan...
