Heys all, i reached Harbin, China safely!!!
This place is super 鸟不生蛋!The flight to Beijing took 6 hours, from Beijing to Harbin took 1h40mins and finally the car ride to the hotel area took 2 hours. It was quite a horrifying experience on the car cos there was this part of the road where the cars moved in 2 opps lanes and the driver of the car i was in overtook the car in front by cutting into the counter-direction lane, all based on luck! If there was a car on the opps lane the moment he cut, we sure buang one! So i was pretty worried for some time but soon the ZzzZzz monster took over after i had my seatbelts on. Hee
Wanted to say smth abt the things i saw. Realised that the trees here are all properly planted, as in can see that they were not left to grow where the wind blows their seeds to but rather aligned in rows and they look pretty neat from far. It is super sparsely populated here to, with large areas of vegetation and the apartments are mostly short compared to Singapore standards. It is not that lok kok here la, at least i have a hotel that looks roughly 3 star with aircon, tv with 71 channels, hot showers and 2 comfy beds of which i am only gonna use one...muahaha SHIOKNESS!
In addition, the food here is really salty but what to do, when in rome, have to do what the romans do. Just drink more water i guess. my frens back home, take care! I will have fun here, no worries!
Good night.
