New category

Today I added a new category to make my first posts easy to find. These are all from my first trip to Shenzhen/China where I met C for the first time. The meeting and later Justins blog – Shenzhen Zen – was what spurred my interest in blogging. The category can be found on the […]

Legal wetback

When it rains it pours! The first week in Shenzhen offered only great weather. Well great in the sense that it wasn’t raining. The humid and extreme warm climate that had greeted me the first week really was not the most comfortable for a “great” Dane like me. Suddenly this changed. You really never can […]

Rooooooooxanneeee…

Since I eventually cannot remember the days from each other, my next posts will be about things I experienced in no logical order. On one of my days alone (C. had to work), I went for a walk in the evening (20.00-21.00 I think). During my stay in Shenzhen I had slowly begun to feel […]

Not forgotten

Sorry for lack of update, but the last week has been pretty hectic. I have no intention of stopping this blog, but at the moment I am pretty busy. The few times I have time for writing is always when I need a rest and lack the motivation. But do not worry, just like Arnold […]

Pocket size C3PO

After my less successful trip to the DVD shop, I decided to spend the evening relaxing at the hotel. The day before I made arrangements with C. and the interpreter to contact me about what to do the next time C. and I had time to meet. The interpreter called me, and asked me what […]

Left to my own devices

After a good nights sleep I began wondering what to do with my day. I had the whole day to myself, since C. had to work. Even though the interpreter had offered her services showing me some of the city, I decided that this would not be the same without C. I had become very […]

Day number 2 and my jetlag finally disappeared. I am not sure it was the time difference that gave me this feeling only, but more likely the long flight. Still I had problems sleeping at the right hours, but this was a slight problem. The whole day before really went well. The interpreter really was […]

Food for the hungry mass

I met C. and the interpreter in the lobby. C. was a very sweet girl, like I had felt through our letters and the pictures she sent. I instantly liked her smile and eyes. She even gave me a handshake, though she in a letter had told me that this was not common in China, […]

No rest for the weary

Leaving the reception I went to my room. Pretty neat room for a 3 star hotel I thought. The fee was 300 or 456RMB a night. I really never found out what the real price was until I saw the print from the credit card on my computer back home. When I reserved the room […]

(Bear with me, since the next part is written out of memory. It is now almost 4 weeks since I left China, and some details may have slipped my mind). There you go. I was almost ready for takeoff. Last thing was to tell one of my brothers about the real reason for going. See […]

Well, no way back now. I’ve jumped into the whole shebang with both legs first and eye tightly shut. I have started my own web blog. During the last few days I have come across many of these on the Internet. Recently I discovered the whole community after looking for some Chinese software reviews (more […]
