In the morning we took the bullet train from Shanghai to Xi'an. The bullet train travels at speeds up to 186mph, so we made the 938 mile trip in six hours! Our hostel is quite lovely. (That stuffed cloud with arms and legs is mine. I bought him in Shanghai. I named him Petri. He… Continue reading 03.13.2018 – Xi’an day 1 →

On the surface, my day today was simple. But for me, it was on the list of the top 10 best days of my life. I took a long walk around the city with no agenda and did went wherever looked interesting.  And I saw some awfully wonderful things! I love grocery stores (I work… Continue reading 03.12.2018 – Shanghai day 4 →

  (what else did you expect to start my day?) I think tomorrow I'm going to try and make it to one of the Yang's Dumpling restaurants (they are all over China). We just saw this one during a moment when we sat down to relax for a few minutes. I'm stoked! Today we got… Continue reading 03.11.2018 – Shanghai day 3 →

Shanghai is beautiful. I say this with a strong bias because I love Chinese culture and have wanted to visit China ever since I got obsessed with Mulan 20 years ago, but I think most people would agree with me.  It's a great city. MORE DUMPLINGS.  handmade and delicious of course We've eaten at this… Continue reading 03.10.2018 – Shanghai day 2 →

7am taxi and we are here! I got 3 hours of sleep on the plane which, for me, is an accomplishment. We were super tired and our hostel has early check-in, but we got there too early for early check-in. Haha. So we found a place nearby to get some good wonton soup for breakfast.… Continue reading 03.09.2018 – Shanghai day 1 →

Our last day!  Not a lot I'm gonna write on this one because it was kind of a blur of a day.  Travel, travel, sleep, travel, wander around dazed (me, not Jennifer), travel, sleep... We had one final meal at this little Indian restaurant next to our hostel.  It was so yummy that we just… Continue reading 03.08.2018 – Cameron Highlands →

Today was a pretty relaxed day.  I really wanted to go to an area where I could get fresh fruits and vegetables, so we hopped on the local bus to get there.  It wasn't the most efficient way to get there but I actually really enjoyed it - there weren't tourists on board and it… Continue reading 03.07.2018 – Cameron Highlands day 3 →

Today we went on a tour including more tea fields and a hike in the Mossy Forest! Successful selfie. Yay!  (Neither of us are very experienced in the art of selfies, but we are getting better at remembering to take photos with us in them more often. Solely for the sake of our families seeing… Continue reading 03.06.2018 – Cameron Highlands day 2 →

I had not been able to post anything over our entire time in the Cameron Highlands because our hostel did not have great wifi (it happens!).  Currently (on March 8) I'm at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport waiting for our flight to Shanghai, and the wifi is JUST BARELY STRONG ENOUGH to upload photos!  So… Continue reading 03.05.2018 – Cameron Highlands day 1 →

LOTS of photos today because Jennifer and I did separate things for a significant first part of the day! Jennifer's photos and captions from the first half of the day... This is one of my top 3 museums so far in the trip. Nice daggers!! Arabic Chinese calligraphy - soo pretty!!! Dome above one exhibition… Continue reading 03.03.2018 – Kuala Lumpur day →
