  • We traveled from Chengdu to Guilin to embark on a 3 day photography extravaganza. The guided tour required us to wake up at 2-3am every day to photograph sunrise in incredibly difficult to reach locations with gorgeous views and stay up all the way through the sunset to catch the best light. I wasn't prepared for how much I would love Guilin, it's absolutely beautiful there.

      we had a short chat during 2006 and plans happen to changed a bit, I remember him saying "Remember me I'm Gweilo60 " .
      I watch and comment on his videos because we're so alike. He doesn't live far away and hopefully we'll find some spare time to have dinner and say cheers!
      Guilin, yesterday my wife asked me if I wanted to visit, with her tai chi friends. I said if the doctor releases you in time... ok. Just a bit of water on her knee.

      It maybe Europeans who own the best land on earth, then north Americans. Chinaland is not that good in climatic conditions: Dry northwest and wet southeast, while the hottest summer and coldest winter, compared with other countries at the same latitude. But it's true that it's diverse in geography and you can find landscapes similar to those from other continents there.

    The first time when we were in Yangshuo, we found a local young man, kinda a uber driver for the river bamboo raft ride. We took the ride, and since it's quite late after, the young man invited us all to his home, his wife just grab some vegetable from their garden and made a delicious dinner for us. Quite a wonderful experience.
