First a warning: This is my first attempt at a blog, so it will probably suck, please forgive the huge number of misspellings.
Anyways i have some time to kill while waiting for a train ride to Kunming, so this seems as good as any a way to past the time.
I have been traveling aprox. 2 weeks now however it has seemed like months. I started off in Hong Kong for a few nights seeing the city. Then took the train to Guangzhou, in Guandong province, just into PRC from Hong Kong. Guangzhou is a polluted city, with an insane number of people packed into a small area. However it still holds some charm to it if you give it a chance.
I have spent the last week plus in a town called Yangshou, in Guangxi province. It is more of a backpackers haven than a Chinese village, but its location can not be beat. It is in the heart of the most beautiful karst landscape imaginable.
I have climb mountians, bike through rice fields, rode a scooter into areas it should not go, been kayaking, and have learned to play majong. I have to say it has been a lot of fun.
Connected are a few stock photos of the places i have been and seen. The tallest building in Hong Kong, the polluted Pearl river, and the amazing landscape of Yangshou. I would post my own photos however i only have a film camera.
