    Dreaming of touring China. Experiences, opinions?

    I will do India one day, perhaps next year starting August.
    But China is much more interesting right now because I can earn money along the way (under the table English teaching).
    I'll get a Chiang Jiang, maybe bring it home at the end if it's not too many thousand bucks to ship.

    Do any of you have experiences of travelling in China?

    I lived in Taiwan for a year so know a tiny bit of the language and get on in Chinese culture well.
    This is an interesting site that Motu posted way back in 2005.
    I'm sure there are heaps of other web resources out there, I am just beginning my search though. Looking for more personal experience comments here though.

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Bought it from the guys themselves to support their fundraising / debt repayment, yep that was a good read.

    They live in Wellington. Click on the bit that says, "Meet The Author", and go introduce yourself, or turn up to a Classic Bike club ride or meeting.

    If it's Chinese greens you're after, Mr Chan's is closer.

    There's a Last Hurrah video too. And the Silkriders' book.
