Visiting popular tourists sites around China is always interesting, but sometimes it’s not the attraction itself that leaves an impression but the Chinese tourists you encountered there.

I flew to China to teach English in 2011. I taught in a quaint, rural University with a nearby village called Majia. I spent the first few months exploring, finding my way around the various vendors in the market place. After being there for 4 months, I became adventurous. Amongst the fish vendors, I noticed large frogs contained in a net. What ... Read More>>

This has been something that’s been on my mind a lot of late. I recently met up with an old pal of mine who has been living in Switzerland for the past few years and I was really surprised when he told about the extent that Switzerland has had to adapt its tourist market for wealthy Chinese. He told me of little “China ... Read More>>

I’ve been in this gig for several years now and I can say it’s a pretty fun job most of the time.

It’s not such a bad life. In our ... Read More>>

In a turn of events that would surely contradict any perception of construction safety anywhere outside of China, we were approached by these bar owners who ... Read More>>

I’ve been living in Beijing for a few years now, and though I don’t think it can quite claim to have full “international city” status in the why that Hong Kong or possibly Shanghai do, it’s still pretty modern and forward-thinking enough for a dumbass foreigner like me to maraud their way around relatively ...

It is an unprecedented move for Chinese state TV to cover the execution of criminals live, especially when foreigners are involved, although the scenes of execution were not shown on the screen. Since CCTV is controlled by the Chinese authorities, there is no doubt that the green light was given by top government officials. It seems that the ... Read More>>

Having only just the survived the festive onslaught which is Chinese New Year I can safely say that it’s an overrated festival for anyone who isn’t Chinese.
