A three week trip through China, across the Himalayas to Lhasa by rail, Khatmandu and Bhutan

An impression of 4 weeks in China!

The dragon has awakened! Beijing will always have a lasting memory for me. My dreadlocks got all the attention from the locals. When I was surrounded I didnt know what to do. My 15 mins of fame was a lil bit scary for me but I played a "celebrity" really good by posing for photos for the locals and with the locals. I can still picture them in my mind following me wherever I go just to glimpse and touch my hair. Will I return to China in the future? Not without my publicist and agent!;)

All i thought that if you've got the resources you can easily see all the beautiful things you wanted to see, but i was wrong in the case of Mt. Everest. It was a struggle, a combination of pain & laughter to be close to one of the best creation of mother nature!   We set off from HK to …

My trip to Beijing this summer. It was really cool, and I went to all the major attractions - The Great Wall, The Forbidden City, Ming Tombs, the Olympic Stadium... I didn't really take pictures at night, but the nightlife there is really exciting.

So after a 10 hour flight from heathrow we arrived in Shanghai ans were informed that we will be inspected for swine flu by taking our tempertaure. After filling in the immigration forms we were free to go, so no inspection. At the immigration in the airport there were taking our temperature, but w…

Shanghai, Nanjing, Beijing and the Graet Wall.

I still can't believe I climbed the Great Wall ! It was amazing ! What a view ! We climbed it at Badaling & let me tell you it was tougher than I thought it would be. So much of it is uphill and steep ! Bring lots of water and shoes with good grip. However the climb to the highest point is sooo…

在那里有温泉，更可以象鸟儿一样飞行——玩儿滑翔伞。 Has the hot spring in there, may look like the bird same flight, plays the paragliding.
