When I got to Kunming, I was happily surprised to find out that the taxis are cheaper than Beijing.  The meter also runs in fractions of a RMB, but no change is given (round up). The rain has been off and on, but it's kind of discouraged me from straying too far from the hostel since I don't …

Because my Vietnamese visa took 3 days processing I was stuck in Kunming and decided it was time to chill out and reflect on some of my travel experiences.
