I have spent 70 days in China. I thought I would do one month traveling and one month kung fu and it finished with 2 months traveling and 1 week kung fu π Now I know it is not enough to explore whole China as it is huge. In my limited time I have seen […]

Guilin, Yangshuo and finishing China travels with Taichi
My journey around China ends here in Guilin and Yangshuo. I have seen this picture first time on 20 Yuan bank note and I was not sure what it is and where it is. When I found out about the name I knew I must visit before I leave. I quite liked Guiling and Yangshuo […]
