In love with China

Due to a change in plans I've had to cut my stay in Taining short and I'm currently in WuYiShan today, staying in a hotel tonight before flying off to Hong Kong tomorrow. It is a shame in a way because I have absolutely fell in love with China. Just walking down the street today exploring it hit me how much I love this place. It is such a unique country, it is almost like another world. Communicating with the people is always an interesting experience because everything is so different out here. Even something as simple as counting to 10 using your fingers that you would probably take for granted is different out here. One to five is as normal but 6 to 10 are completely different. Chinese used to foreigners would understand using your other hand for 6-10 but I am not in a part of China that gets many foreign visitors at all. In fact, myself and another academy student here named Isaac are the only foreigners I have seen my entire time being here, as compared to even somewhere like Mongolia when I saw a handful.

The scenery out here is amazing, I have never seen anything like it before, even the flora out here is unique. Unfortunately I have not had the opportunity to take too many pictures while I'm out here, but I have at least tried to snap some.

I'm not entirely sure what I am doing once I am in Hong Kong. Whether I fly off to somewhere else in asia or fly home I haven't decided yet, but I have decided this will be the first of many travelling adventures to come.
