  • Cèsuǒ Fàndiàn (The 'Modern Toilet' Restaurant)I was out with my friends looking for somewhere to eat lunch, when we passed this restaurant - and we just had to eat there.

  • Tigers, Beluga Whales and Ice SculpturesOur second day started much like the first except instead of putting on layers of clothes and jeans, we decided to wear ski pants. Yes, around town. Felt a bit funny going out in chunky ski pants, but started Posted by aboo10 in 2+2 travel | Jan 19, 2013

  • Gǔlàngyǔ gāngqín bówùguǎn (The Piano Museum)My friend Lily and I went back to Gulangyu to see the Piano Museum. We are both piano enthusiasts and she used to be a tour guide on the island, so it was a satisfying trip. Gulangyu is t Posted by Melimei in Do what you love | Jan 16, 2013
  • Daily Life 3: Food (draft)Food in China is the one passion of life which is completely uninhibited by its conservative traditional culture.

  • Skyler's Progress (draft)Skyler's been verbalizing a lot. Every couple of days he says something new, which I hadn't heard before, it seems. He is mixing Mandarin and English, which bodes ill for those of us, woefully monolingual, who are trying Posted by myrrhlin in Wuhan and Who | Jun 2, 2008

  • Xiàmén zhíwùyuán (Botanical Garden)The botanical gardens were one of the things I was most excited about seeing when coming to Xiamen.

  • BeijingTuesday 8th January We arrived in Beijing at about 1700 local time after an uneventful flight. It was surprisingly easy to get to our accommodation thanks to the constant English signs.

  • Muffs and Suckers: Beijing, ChinaFriday Dec 21, 2012 My winter vacation began with the fast train from Shanghai to Beijing! Economy class was rather nice.
