China 101


Hey hey guys,

Have been here for more than a week now and I’m still struggling to adjust.
Just 2 days ago I was sick and bed ridden. I was in soo much pain, I was finding it impossible to fall asleep or stay still.

But its all good now!

One of the few things I learnt on my current stay is: I have no clue how to cross the road, & Car rides will scare the **** out of you.
Drivers here will squeeze, beep, take over, beep some more, create a road, reverse drive, pretty much like Bumper car but without touching each other.

I was in a few taxi rides today, and one driver stood out very much. He would beep at all vehicles in front of him to make way and beep at anyone that is likely to merge in front of him.

When your sitting in the passenger side, cars can come at you at all directions. I feel really confused because cars can pop out from anywhere, sometimes you can see vehicles coming straight at you, head on.

Each time we cross the road, I hold on to James’ hand for dear life. At times I feel like a Deer in head lights, only thing pulling me forward is James’ hands.

James should be getting his stitches out soon, and I will hopefully find time to film a few videos. With all running out, hospital staying, sickness, shopping, finding time to film has been difficult.

Talk to you soon.

Love
Nancy.
