First China pics

"The home is where the hear is i've been told...". Inside the ferry from HK to Shekou.

First lunch at work. Chicken, nuts and some vegetables, all in garlic sauce, plus rice. I didn't order cutlery, so far i was brave. You might say i'm on a chop stick diet.

In the supermarket: Hmmm, which noodles do i want, green, blue, pink, red or yellow? No idea what difference is. Of course it's written on them. In Chinese.

Chinese cabbage. Hoehoe.

Germknödel. Like those Austrian yeast dumplings. But these come in different colours.

Teletubbies gone to war. Baaaad taste, tell me about it.

Chackie Chan's shampoo. Keeps your hair nice and black, according to the package. But i don't want black hair!



Chinese liquors. I guess.

They do pack a lot of different things on those bikes...


In my elevator: Keep cleaning :-)

Seaworld at night.

Night view from my new room.

Morning view from our balcony.

I now work in a country where i can drink beer for dinner. Marvellous!

Inside Walmart.

Me in front of a lot of dried and packed things.

Dried Meat.


ps: have you ever wondered what your name would be in Chinese? Try this.
