Life and Travel in China
A personal journal with stories, travel experiences, funny situations and everyday life in China
I came to the conclusion a few months ago that I already had a lot of photos from Shenzhen and decided to open a new website. Maybe that's why I neglected adding photos here. Despite everything, the new website is already operational, in English - Shenzhen Photo Gallery www.shenzhenphoto.com!!! I invite everyone who wants to get to know this city better and see photos in higher resolution. This time the gallery in flash!
I recently ate a very strange Chinese 'sweet', if anything can be called sweets in this country. It was a flat fruit jelly, a small snack. Basically tasteless, but... the strangest thing was that it was covered with wafers on both sides?! That's right, a light, simple cake that tastes and looks like our Christmas Eve wafers. What a desecration! Jelly covered with wafer to prevent fingers from sticking.
Today I found on the Internet the website of a Chinese company selling cheap jewelry (Zhejiang province). Imagine that they advertise on their website with the image of Prime Minister Donald Tusk! Interesting... there will be chaos.
Today in the Chinese Carrefour there was a tasting of Smirnoff vodka and Baileys liqueur. It's a pity that this isn't available in Poland. I can already imagine the queues of older men - a hundred tastings and then back to the queue. Shopping in such a hypermarket is a pleasure, every man would gladly go there with his wife. "You go, honey, look there, and I'll stand here in line with my friends." And there were no tasters in the Chinese market. And here the seed fell on inhospitable soil.
Today they are organizing a family picnic in the park under the slogan "One pair - one child". Such a propaganda show, they have prepared a stage, hundreds of chairs and I will present something. It would be better to teach contraception in high schools than to explain something to married couples who have 2-3 children after the fact. I personally know two couples who are having a second child illegally, so this one-child policy is largely not working.
