On this side of the closet
Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9oHbUBPCu8
My plane landed in Argentina a week ago exactly.
I'm still on the slow road back, the slow recognition.
Tongling and Chinese are my whole world every night in my dreams.
Every day in my thoughts. My watch still retains
when Tongling. And the answers
courtesy, and some other, still want to jump out in Chinese even in the midst of this world that has nothing to do with them.
miss this Macondo China. Living beyond understanding more than ever that magical realism. Tongling
, That dull, gray town showed me so much sweetness and innocence, so much misunderstanding and ignorance.
this side of the closet all this begins to look like a dream.
now the other side of the wardrobe there somewhere, with a different time.
· Back one day? ¨, asked the little girl from Narnia at the end of the movie.
I like her, I hope to cross the closet looking for all this world so different and charming. Originally

manufacturing sector was built in 1950 with money from the Soviet Union and Germany. Later
was recycled and covirtio in a sale of electronic products.
Today is the sector most big city where you can see productions of young artists waiting to be discovered, as well as other already established.
An interesting place, recommended, curious, where art exhibitions are the most diverse and attractive.
After visiting the art district, won a visit to one of the bars offering the very western Sanlitun street, one of the most cheta Beijing.
The most cheesy bar, more red, more full of sequins, was against all the predictions of Western eyes, the more fun for everyone ...
... because we did not understand anything, of course.

Palace summer.
This on the outskirts of the city. It was built in the 18th century.

The Summer Palace is not in itself a palace. Is a complex of corridors and pavilions around a lake, the Kunming Lake. The buildings are like lost inside a big park.
In the complex, there is even a theater, and everything needed for the recreation of gentlemen.

How To Unremove Posting In Facebook
Are the ones that come and go vacation.
Are those who come to make America.
Are those who come seeking the mysteries of this mysterious and inexplicable civilization. Of these, there are those who are fascinated and no longer return to their countries, and some people are disappointed and after a month, decided that the differences are boundless and back from whence they came.

are those who go to a town in the interior of China and love it. Because life is very different, because life is slow because there are no foreigners.
What they have in common: they all think, feel, experience, which is a great wall that divides us, that there are points where the different understanding of what is impossible.

Court Ordered Marriage Counseling

is strange.
When China comes to my house, I felt to be inhabiting the discomfort of the unknown, foreign. And feel me cry in the middle of strange objects and people.
Now, in these days of slow goodbyes, I cry at having to leave my home and many people embraced me from the beginning.
Every time we travel we leave a little our hearts in those places where we build new families. The magic is in that despite this, our heart is getting bigger. Still
. the sadness of departure is inevitable. Chau
