Bathroom Theft

Hello Everyone,

This week we gained a new appreciation for our life. If you are considering backpacking, or experiencing the non touristy places of China-be WARNED.

We all get those emergencies, when you just need to go, on thing to keep in mind when you will need to go in China is that you will go in a hole. 

Yes, in Chine majority of the toilets are squat and they don't have tissues, so a friendly advice "BRING YOUR OWN TISSUES, SOAP AND/OR SANITIZER OR BOTH".  It will definitely be a challenge for us to try to balance ourselves and our bags while trying to hide from others view because sometimes there is no DOOR.

 ***We would like to apologize for the poor quality of the videos, there are problems with double compression, we will get it fixed soon.***

In a miracle and twisted sense we then proceeded to talk about food and culture of food in China. there are many interesting dishes offered in China some that are very foreign to our concept of what food is. none the less, they will be devoured, though some might be a challenge.

Chicken feet-definitely will be a challenge to eat.

The Art of Chopsticks

If you have never watched anime, read manga or have never seen a movie that reflects chopstick etiquette please keep in mind the two important rules. First and most important rule is: NEVER stick your chopsticks in the bowl- "that's a big NO NO. Why? Well it reminds people of funerals, and thats not an appetizing seen.

Second rule is don't point your chopsticks at someone, there are so many reasons as to why, the main one being is that its RUDE. This also means dont talk with your chopsticks, as in gesticulate which us foreigners tend to do.

The main point to remember is no matter of your skills of using chopsticks, do try to eat with them. if you are bad you will entertain someone, if you are good you will amaze someone. So enjoy you meals with chopsticks =)

See you guys soon
