  • 今夜就在广州

    今夜就在广州

    开始把广州当是我的居留地了. 虽然现在经常呆在广州了,我又开始回到从前的流浪生活。这里飘,那里飘,四海为家的我还是想飘回到。。。

  • 浪漫的广州

    浪漫的广州

    广州市一个浪漫派的城市。在广州我最喜欢就是去泡酒吧。因为我很容易认识寂寞的文秘,千金小姐,富婆,等。认识靓女,靓婆,听听她们的心事,工作压力,爱情,等等,就这样过了好几个夜晚。

    朋友们都说广州不好玩又很难沟女,一般都跑到深圳去。我不觉得广州难沟女,可能朋友们没呆的比我久吧,不知道从哪开始。呆在广州的女孩人品比在深圳的好。生活水平也高,对待感情也丰富不象深圳的女孩,爱的一团糟。

    广州的酒吧好好玩,很有气氛,播放的音乐好好听,又有节奏感。不象东莞,深圳或珠海的音乐,喳喳喳的象流氓音乐,听了心更乱。可能是因为广州比较多老外,聘请来的DJ也是有世界水平的。

  • Yangtze River Delta Autumn Tour 2007

    Shanghai South Station

    I went to Shanghai a couple of times but this was the first time I was travelling from Shanghai South Station. The train station was beautiful and look more like an airport than a railway station.

    I was a tiring week and I was travelling in the Yangtze River Delta (长三角) region. Somehow ended up in Shanghai South Station to travel to my next destination.

    Interestingly this station stir up my emotion and made me ponder deep into some of my pending life issues that were on my mind.

  • The Venetian

    The Venetian Card Key

    My opportunity came and complimentary from my friend, MK, I got myself a free one night stay in the junior suite at the hotel, The Venetian in Macau, China SAR.

    It was a great night hanging out at The Venetian, enjoying myself playing baccarat and later eating and drinking at Starbucks from my winnings.

    The shopping mall was fantastic. It had a mock up Venice inside and you could take a boat ride too.

  • Upgrade To Business Class

    Waiting For My Flight UA895 After Upgrade To Business Class

    Got myself a United Airlines ticket to get me back home. I went to the counter and was told that my flight was overbooked and I was offered compensation if I gave up my seats and wait for the next one.

    While I was asking about the compensation details, another staff came over and told me there was no more seat left and transferred my ticket to the Cathay Pacific Airline. I was escorted to the counter at the other end of the building and was told no seat was available too.

    I was hungry and tried after four hours of travelling to the airport. I was told no seat and was being pushed around. Finally I got a seat with Cathay Pacific but it was too late. My patient ran out and I decided to lodge a complaint and went furiously to the United counter and looked for the manager.

    I contented with him about the lousy service rendered to me. I told him if I were to fly Cathay Pacific, I would bought the ticket myself and not by transferring. I also wanted to complain the staff that changed my seat to Cathay Pacific flight without my acknowledgement, giving the excuse of no seat left. The manager was decisive and immediately gave me a business class seat on my original flight.

    Upgrading my seat to business class sound like a good offer but it was not. With all the hassle and rushing to be on time for the flight on a hungry stomach, it was a bad event I did not want to experience.

  • Crossing Shenzhen Bay

    Shenzhen Bay Border Crossing Station

    Went to Hong Kong through Shenzhen Bay, the new border crossing station. The place was spacious but emptied. May be because the place was newly opened and not many had travelled through here yet.

    Traffic was congested in the evening but it was a smooth ride for me, surrounded by beautiful twilight scenery, to Hong Kong International Airport.

    I guess I would be using this Shenzhen Bay often soon.

  • Living In Manhattan

    Living In Manhattan, 20th floor
    This is my new dwelling place, Manhattan, living almost at the top and I have the bird’s-eye view of the town from my balcony.

    I like to hang out at the balcony and enjoy the view. It make me feel I am at the top of the world and above the rest.

    I love living in Manhattan!

  • 东北之冬 Winter Tour 2007

    Backpacking In Nanjing

    My long awaited campaign, Winter of Dongbei, my winter tour, which I had postponed a year ago because of health reason. This was my third winter of my life and second time seeing snow flakes falling from the heavenly sky.

    I spent my winter tour in this town called Heihe (黑河) in the province of Heilongjiang (黑龙江). This town was located north of Heilongjiang, one of the border-crossing town between Russian and Chinese.

    I set off my journey from Hongkong to Shanghai to transit to Haerbin (哈儿滨). A friend of mine knew that I was in the region contacted me and I took a six hours train to Nanjing, north from Shanghai, to meet up with her.

    I visited Nanjing for four days and left for Harebin. The train took about 28 hours to reach Harerbin. I spent a night in the city and left for Hegang (鹤岗) to meet some friends. I spent two nights in here before I went to my final destination, Heihe.

    Heihe was a small isolated town. Transport system to the town was not comprehensive. It took me quite a while travelling to a few towns to get the right stations that take me to Heihe. God is good. I managed to travel smoothly and less waiting time during transit. Travel to places like these and in an unpredicted weather, if you missed the transport, you might wait for another day or two.

    Many people asked me why was I doing in such a remote condition. Three reasons, I want to ski, I want to learn Russian as my forth language and my annual personal retreat.

    I cancelled my skiing trip because i felt over slippery ice on the roads consecutively for three days. The third fall really put my body in a very bad physical condition. My buttock was bleeding and my waists was hurt badly. In fact I rested three days before i moved again.

    I had signed up for my Russian language class and hope to start blogging in Russian soon.

    Most important of all for this winter tour was my personal retreat. Last year retreat I had charted my next decade plan, (The World Is my Home). This retreat was to evaluate on my vision and goals. Living in solitude then I could reflect upon my life, refocused on my vision if i had deviated. Whatever was out of alignment, I would tune it back, just like tuning my guitar strings.

  • Winter Valentine

    Winter Valentine Background In Heihe, Heilongjiang

    I stepped out of the entrance, the snow flakes were falling beautifully from the bright illuminated starry sky.

    What a picturesque it would be if I could hold my lover’s hand and walked in this winter valentine background. Now I understand why the local here called it Paris of the East.

    Whose hand I would hold to walk on the street of this romantic night?
