    Even in multi-million dollar (correction: Yuan) condos, old habits die hard in China. The fact these fish were outside an office begs a question [...]

    Gua Sha

    I’ll never forget the first time I saw someone that had been treated with Gua Sha. I thought they had been assaulted due to the bruise marks on various places along their neck and back. Later a [...]

  3. Steve,

    Me too. We had a great Chinese Muslim stand near our place in Changchun, but I haven’t been able to find a good one here in Banciao. My stomach grumbles when I look at this photo.

  5. I probably should have mentioned this in my post. This photo was taken back in 2006. We started our three month journey in Northern China and made our way south to Xian and finally on to Guangzhou before heading into Macau. I was scrolling through old photos last night and came across this one. It’s always been one of my favorites.

  6. Great picture, was it taken with your old point-and-shoot camera? It got me hungry and it’s 2,5 more hours until my lunch break…

  7. Hi Kim,

    Glad to keep you entertained at work. That makes me happy! Actually, this photo was taken with my first digital camera. It was a Fuji compact. My staff bought it for me just before I left for Asia. It was a piece of crap, which just proves you don’t need a great camera to get great pictures! ;-)

  8. It looks very tasty. In Poland I see from time to time restaurants which offer a Chinese food. I’ve eatten it and I must confess it tastes very good but I bet not as good as in China. Beside I think that not every dishes are available.
    I don’t even try to guess which camera did you use. :) I thought that was canon. You said that was fuji. :))) One way or another it’s a great picture.

  9. Hi K!

    I took this photo with my very first digital camera. I’ve been shutter-bugging since I was a young girl, but to be honest, I didn’t really start getting into the art of photography until last year. I didn’t like the Fuji much. It was a farewell gift from my staff, but it wasn’t a camera I would have picked for myself. However, it seems to have done the trick, so I shouldn’t complain!
