hello all!
so i've arrived safe in china after a very turbulance filled flight in which i was thinking we were going to crash! there were people on the flight with masks on to stop them getting swine flu and was the same at the airport. thankfully my temperature wasn't too high and so i didn't need to get quarantined! the man that picked me up at the airport was really cute but he did not speak one word of english, but kept attempting conversation and offering me cigarettes! ha. the driving skills on these roads are scary stuff, me in my car would seem very tame compared to this ... and there are no seatbelts. fab.
beijing is mad! the traffic is chaos and it's really smoggy from all the pollution. but is really really hot and humid. my hostel seems really nice, only have to share my room with two other people so it's not too bad. the street that it is on is crazy though as they are digging it all up and there's construction everywhere. problem is you just have to climb over it all to get to the hostel - bricks, tiles, bits of wall. good work out! and there is little restuarants serving some sort of meat kebab things ... not sure what they are! ha. i'm scared to wander too far just now incase i get lost and never find my way back again!
anyway, like a zombie at the moment after the journey so away to grab some food and get a well needed shower. i want to sleep now but since it's only 9am here i'd better try and stay up for a bit!
love
