We left Yangshou and went to Guanzhou, Sanya and then flew to Hong Kong for 3 nights before we went to Sydney.
So what have we learnt from our 9 weeks in China?
Well the Chinese like to spit ALOT, they eat things like Toad,Chicken feet, Dog meat, Pig penis and Scorpions. They stare at you because they havent seen westerners before, they will take pictures of Matt in his shorts because they think he is crazy and its cold to them.
The Chinese cut splits in the back of babies pants, this is so they can take a poo in the street (witnessed!!) saying all this the Chinese are also the nicest, most caring people i have ever met, they will sit next to you in a restaurant and ask you questions about yourself so they can improve their English, in return they will teach you Chinese.
The childen will wave and say hello to you and you walk/ride by, you will be given free fruit by a passerby in a restuarant that they have grown themselves. They will invite you into their home for a meal just because you live somewhere in England that they know, they will make you a pair of earrings as a present just for being you.
Yes the Chinese have weird habits and a strange way of life, but they dont care its their way of life, they are happy and content as long as they have their families, clothes on their back, a roof over their head and food to eat they have everything they need and nothing else matters. Isn't this how it should always be?
Sydney here we come! xx
