all good.
天啊 真的好久不见tmbrl.. I have to admitt I might have turn into other social media after unlimited, free access to the Internet when I was back home..
but anyway, after a long, hard-working summer and visiting home I’m eventually back here in Hangzhou, back to my routine, with new goals, aims and I enjoy every moment of it.
So it arrived. The REAL summer. My chinese friends warned me several times that its somewhere around the corner but it was still hard to believe that it can be THAT hot outside. So we melt, whenever leave a place with AC. But I don't mind that if only I see such a blue sky every morning. So, summer, real summer, please last forever..
I'm mastering nicecreams and smoothie bowls. TBC
It's still hard to believe that my 亲哥 came to China and we've met in freaking Shanghai. For almost 11months I haven't seen anyone that I knew longer then 10months and suddenly I'm hugging my brother at the airport. * So please, get on the plane and just come here * They managed to survive typhoon, 99% humidity, smells, noises, chinese, crowds, smog and first street 辣的bbq. With few fundamental phrases in chinese they were off to go to BEIJING and XIAN. Can't wait to see those two back in HZ soon. TBC
2in1: farewell-house warming party. wow. it's been a while.. here. Today was the best summary of the whole year I had in HZ (with the best ppl and amazing food) and a beginning of the new chapter. Thank you all <3
我搬家。 I moved to my chinese 姐. The very first night (in the ridiciously huge rounded bed), the very first breakfast, the very first coffee. The perfect summer is around the corner.
balance in China
Last months were about balance. I learnt how to cherish every moment in recently-genuiely-busy routine. I found time to laugh, focus, carry on with my goals, enjoy last weeks of my yearly adventure here with those who were here with me for the last year.
It’s almost July, something is about to end but a brand new chapter is also about to start. Sometimes I feel as I just got here a week ago, but the truth is that China has changed me. Perhaps not China in deed but the whole year thousands miles away from home filled with new experiences and opportunities around every corner. All my insecurities, bad habits somehow were swallowed up by the new ones. And I smile. A lot (*to all those who knows me, you might rather ask for putting some flesh on this statement, well, soon!).
So with this smile upon my face (Of Monsters and Man - “Backyard”), I can’t wait for summer vacations, filled with good food, body balance, laugh, studying, working hard and positive attitude. I am going to play pause for new few weeks and enjoy two months of perhaps hard-to-enjoy-heat-and-smog in China, but still, I will grab every minute of this!
SH in HZ, 粽子, best Sat evening with Indian friend,cuisine and lovely fresh brizze at Xihu

if you ever wonder how happiness looks like (or what my mum puts into parcel that cross 遥远山沟 to get here), that's IT. Thank you, thank you, thank you !! #byebyeBeyonceBody
back. to future
Therefore I'm sitting in my favourite coffe shop, on my favourite settee, staring at passing-by umbrellas' holders afraid of rain (or occasional snow) and rushing cars, trying to save the last sips of hot chocolate (while I've just noticed the difficulties of typing significant letter H). Altough I might seem to be in the same place as a month ago, I'm not (or at least that's what I'm trying to tell myself). While doing my best to adjust to the current situation which is: reluctant-slow-motion back to reality I ran into some ups and downs on my way. Don't get me wrong. While waiting for my train to HZ, I was happy about going back. Even though I spent 24 out of 37 hrs dying in the train (due to some stomach issue which should rather not to be mention here), I've acquired a new knack: after 4hrs of playing cards with my chinese travel companion, I finally was able to beat them two or three times (even tho I'm still not sure about the rules or even the name of the game we played). I even wrote the whole plan of things to do that I should face in near future. With a possitive attitude I get off the train in Hangzhou, enjoying the sun, the half-empty city, smiling people on the street, spring in the air. And so it lasted one day. The gloomy-rainy-depressing aura came back to the city and overwhelmed me. Cause the truth is that my trip has spoiled me.
How three weeks in SE Asia can spoil you? What a silly question. After five months of living in China any place could spoil you. For this entire time I was bewitched with blue sky, sun, sights, landscapes, smiling people, food, fresh fruits, Lao coffee and baguetts. That's enough. I realised that I perceived that part of the world with some different perspective, not the same one as average white tourist (no offence). That's maybe why I'm not describing entire trip right now ..oh,well it might be rather due to slightly broken camera but still.
Meanwhile I'm just focused.
going back home is always confusing, especially after three weeks in Cambodia and Laos, where almost everyday your eyes were bewitched by surroundings. Luckily, I'll have plently of time to think about what I saw during my 4days journey back to HZ. In the meantime, enjoy Luang Prabang, lovely surrealistic place in (not that wild anymore) Laos.
once you enter Laos (specially from the south part), you feel how life just slow down and you can't help it. moreover, you love that feeling and you secretly wish to carry on 'in stopping the world around you' but you reluctantly get on the tiny boat and head north..
