The New Hotel Security System

Posted in China, Location, Subject by

Haha!😜 Visited a 5⭐ hotel this weekend and found that the bathroom was entirely see-through.   Embarassing, no?!?  Asked my students why and got this lovely response ‘Many hotels in China do this. It’s very common.  Because sometimes the men, they come with a strange woman. Or two. Or different ones. And when they go to the bathroom, all their money is taken.  So this way they can see and be safe.’ πŸ˜’ πŸ˜‚ That’s hilarious.  A five star hotel arranges its bathroom around keeping rich men safe from their ‘women’.  Sad.  Very, very sad.   #lifeinchina #china #travel #humor #abroad, #whataworld

Real #American Breakfast

Posted in China, Food, Location, Subject by

​A real #American breakfast!  πŸ΄  In #China, donuts that taste like real donuts and CHEESE! are so hard to come by. We’ll pay a fortune just for a good old-fashioned meal once in a while. The Chinese usually eat soup, dumplings, fried bread, or salad for breakfast, which isn’t my cup of tea. But we’re staying at the Hilton for a couple days – in China, the nice hotels have both an American and a Chinese buffet – makes for quite the array!  πŸ™‚

​Big announcement folks – the #magic is real!  It all starts with a bathroom phone at the #Hilton in central #china 

Just dial 0 and a whole new world opens!  Not sure if it works for all phones or just this one. . . But ladies and gentlemen the truth is out. Magic is just one phone call away!

Durian – the #Stinky Fruit

Posted in China, Food, Location, Uncategorized by

Durian is the #stinky fruit of Asia. They call it the cheese fruit and smelly fruit. ChinaΒ loves it in pastries, cakes, and the like.

I’ve been told it’s worse than stinky tofu and I’d agree. Smells like cat pee and tastes like it smells. On the good side, the smell, heaviness, and pokey thorns make it an excellent weapon!
