Chinglish signs: You can smoke but you can’t smork!
This sign is in one of the lifts at the gym I go to. Well, as long as no one smorks, I guess it’s OK to smoke. Right?

I visited the tiny Chuandixia Village (川底下) a couple weeks ago with the ZhongGuo Feng team. It is definitely a very beautiful place and I’d recommend checking it out if ever you get the chance. We stayed there for 2 days, 1 night and did some in depth exploration of the village. I think if you want to [...]
I don’t think I need to go into any detail about the name of this massage parlour.. But if you have any other interpretations other than the obvious, feel free to let me know.. Is a name like this even legal in your country?

I can´t believe it has only been one month since I arrived in Beijing! It feels like so much has happened in such a short space of time. I was supposed to try and update this blog daily, but that just wasn´t possible, neither was weekly. But finally after month and a few days, I [...]
Hi folks! I was packing my suitcase for my trip to China and these songs came on the radio. Kinda liking em both so I thought I’d share! Less than 24 hours to go! Yes, the second one is Dappy from the group N-Dubz.. Don’t judge, the chorus suits my current situation. :)
I found this excellent video explaining the rise of China and some of the problems the rest of the ‘developed world’ are going to face in years to come. This video is definitely worth watching! I found this video here whilst browsing the internet about Beijing, as it has been on my mind non stop [...]
