Well I’m back from China now. It was very cool. The trip was very good as all the hard stuff was organized for you (like train tickets) but there was quite a lot of free time so it felt like you were on holiday on your own quite a lot of the time.
Some things I enjoyed:
- The Great Wall – It’s absolutely huge, very impressive
- The Food – It’s very nice
- The Guest-house we stayed in for a night – full of antique furniture
Some things I won’t miss
- Obviously being a tourist – perhaps the most annoying thing about the trip as the tourist industry is growing in China and quite a few of the people selling souvenirs are quite aggressive in their selling tactics
- The traffic – It’s absolutely insane, quite funny until you actually have to try to cross the road
- The Food – well not the food (it was nice) I just want a little more variation; how I longed for a croissant. The noodles for breakfast, lunch and dinner was a little too much for me.
All in all it was very cool though. I’ll put some photos up soon, maybe.
But for now back to reality. I’m getting round to trying to find a flat in Portsmouth (I start work in less than 3 weeks now, better than some though 
). I’ve also got to book a gown for graduation.
