Intro
: I have been attracted by Asia since I was young and when I was traveling in Africa I promised myself that it was going to be my next destination. Around January, while I was resting in Italy after 9 months of Africa,  I found a cheap flight going to Shanghai, China... As my first time in Asia, at the beginning I was really shocked about all those new cultures: the oriental type of writing, the oriental food, the oriental people, the oriental mass and the oriental traditions... I met a chinese guy named James, he helped me out a lot during my permanence and we became good friends.

Shanghai photo gallery:

<< Left, James , my giving me a great welcome with the Chinese new year cake

>> Right, Working out at the gym , a local gym without heaters , cold like a refrigerator, with cool guys who were eating 8 eggs during the training and using some special techniques. The cost of 1 month with a personal trainer for each session was 120 Y ! Around 10$ jeez!!!

 

 

2<< Left, At least 1 meal per day was composed by these inexpensive chinese dumplings with very easy cook processing...

>> Right, 2 typical Chinese things caught in 1 shot: a bicycle and the chinese writings

Guangzhou photo gallery:

 


<< Left, Mandy ,me and Liang


>> Right, Coming close to the real life in China



 

<< Left, It's kind of romantic the fact that for 3 days we communicated with drawings, as Liang couldn't speak more than 2 words of english.




 

 

1<< Left, Me in Beijing Lu

 

>> Right, View from the 24th fllor of Liang's place : the fog you can see obviously is not only humidity but most of it is composed by pollution. Discharges from millions of industries and vehicles surrounding Guangdong province.
