2002-10-18 Tulip Messenger mind Inn in Lijiang, St. Paul had laid the night before Zhongdian Travelers Club bar also met a group of Belgian tourists. They invited me to drink, one seriously ask me a question: is not a lot of Chinese people to Europe? I say small, generally reading the main tourist bar, hand, many people go to Australia, Canada and the United States. He immediately shook his head, said the United States is a very gifted natural state (natural), also good, but its short history, on the contrary a long history in Europe, life still have to travel to Europe, as well as a very good wine it; Americans are mostly just look at to China's market, and genuine concern for the study of Chinese culture, but are Europeans. He also asked if I would go to Europe, I said, will certainly go and see. However, I must first learn more about at a young age to travel more places in China, so I am not a simple tourist, but as a cultural person, to foreigners, including Europeans, including the real Recommended China and Chinese culture. Because I have seen such a scenario, China's large group of foreigners who came to the bar, There was no reply, because most of them do not understand China. One of two Chinese people will ask a question or two and found that the Chinese people joke with the wrong answer would be the same as discovering a new continent widely spread, the entire bar into laughter; and if the Chinese people to answer an exciting and truly recommend to the Chinese them, they would very much appreciate the invitation to drink with you to talk about China, and to talk about their desire to want to go to China to see. That was very pleased to agree with the Belgians that he will be more to come to China, and left the EMAIL address and told me to go to Belgium to look for him.
Do the bosses yesterday morning, and the day before on the road with the knowledge of two girls in Chengdu, traveled to Lijiang. Guangzhou Yu Xiaoxia than my little girl back to Lijiang, a few days, back to Guangzhou ago recommended to me a city where the inn, but also helped me to find a long stay in Guangzhou Lijiang fellow, is a dentist, wanted me to go would be. To the ancient city has been drawing huge crowds, as has been the commercialization of Zhouzhuang. Called the Inn on the Square Street, down a small group north, warm and take us away, the original Inn on the Square Street close to one away from the high ground, seem easy and Naozhongqujing, called off the Inn over arch. Clean ears of many, the environment is also very warm Qing clean, commendable is that the bathroom is very clean toilets and even a bit elegant, as well as anti-cold equipment, well in a small office as evidenced by the master of detail; the Internet access service, on the second floor balcony with hammock and rocking chair and take a city is expected, one asking price of only 15 per day, apart from anything else is not go lie down.
Host a pair of Beijing's big sister and that small group of Hebei Lee, the other one now, they are warm and talk with us, ask my injury. Asked a dentist, originally the inn. Dentists out, like a Heishou a healthy small group, one question has been 36 years old age. When fellow, a talk on more than one hour. To talk about tourism, to talk about photography, Chinese travelers about the status of impulsive and rash (will specifically discuss this issue later), talk about life's choices and fate, as the two have experienced life and found the true meaning of life is seldom go along with those who are now suddenly found the same aspirations and the general, Brief Encounter, and soon addict to get acquaintance like a friend.
Dentists had been in Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital, dentist, living to 35-year-old suddenly found themselves living very Hune, work pressure, the body has an illness, love, tortuous road, feeling bad, suddenly remembered 97 years to Tibet see the beauty, is also an old monk asked a simple and meaningful, and if the movie plot as: "If you come from? go?" sudden awakening, most people only knew that he came from , do not know where to go. He decided to flee, to find the answer in the road outside. In September 2001 began to hold their favorite camera to the Lugu Lake, Zhongdian, Lijiang area of a living will to the present. In the Lugu Lake to open a small dental clinic, is preparing to move to Zhongdian. He has been published in 163 communities, photos and travel articles, saying that they have half a Mosuo people. His wife persuaded his long-term, can not withstand the temptation to walk between heaven and earth, and finally determined to resign, is preparing this month on the 28th to Lijiang and dentists join start a new life. Dentists have also been with me half-jokingly says that in Zhongdian like to open a non-profit psychiatric hospital, consists of three branches, Photography Section; runaway Section of the backpacker;-wheel-drive section to the self-driving a family there Biaoche Zu. The Alliance is no drug administration, the second line is to continue to burn. I immediately suggested that he a few more subjects: HIFI Branch to the musical instruments and recording enthusiasts; storm fried Branch to speculate in gold, foreign exchange, futures, stocks and other owners, and then will be gradually added, such as the entrance of the class was about to come out of the Tuo Fuke . They laughed with their two girls to Bangbian Chengdu, the "king father Setsuro pub" for dinner.
Pub in front of the words "entry for consumption, do not have tickets, tickets: 1 apple, Hall Main: APPLE". Door feeling very small, decoration is unique, obviously spent a lot of thoughts. Open-air is also a sign that read: "take pictures to say hello, and offenders fined washing three days?" A knowing smile, which is a master of courtesy and respect, to prevent the kind of chaos such as general tourists come take pictures around and stomping off like a uneducated. A cup of tea to sit down and say hello, pay do not pay consumers do not consume all right, at least, is the owner's respect for the Well. The owner came out, there are Adam Xu Wang, Taiwan's people, come here, there are many "so blind" (Taiwan compatriots, said with a smile, Minnan dialect transliteration). After dinner is the most lively, and to many people, and A when two lovely daughters The most popular is probably to be 34 years old the proposed projects, bouncing and vivacious, the wizard made it. I asked a big: "What's your name?" "My name is Pipi", childlike refers to the sister of one, "she called Egg, together known as preserved egg." This is preserved eggs can be famous in the town, and Adam went out no one recognize the claim to Pipi Egg's father, everyone will know. Weird dance music sounded, Phi Egg danced a merry dance in the open, we make fun of each other, and the atmosphere lively. They come in a Taiwanese girl, claiming to be "proactive mother", addict to get acquaintance with the dentist chatted with some rumors of a super continent recover Taiwan joke did not say in detail, and would laugh stomach pain. As the eye bandage addition of added pressure, eating a dentist to help me buy pain medicine with sleep Inn on the early return to sleep. They will have to frantically into the night, their dreams are all tired, tired or urban people to find easily.
Today, wake up late, sleep like a baby. Mad with them yesterday and dentists a man and a woman and two Hong Kong people also lived Inn, the man nicknamed "two shirts", working with dentists to discuss the Cantonese cuisine, and we hit it off, prepare themselves to market to buy food self-fried Cantonese cuisine, the Inn owner are also invited to the. Everybody lending a hand basket as soon recruited back I left backs. Dentists say that I am just going out half a head bandage tied and stripped to the image of the One-Eyed Jacks rate of second glance is not enough, pull me to the king father Guanzi Li feeding. Goodfellas, Adam and dental excitedly around the paint, I take my turban drew a five-pointed star on the left "unified" right "China." Guan Zili many people think is interesting, I have around taking pictures with a smile I forget the country's reunification cause injury. Repeated customers are really high all the way to the market to buy food for my dentist took a shopping basket back in daily life. People help each other with the Inn master cook, sit around tables and eat and chat bursts of laughter. In this ancient city of Lijiang, we do not get noisy, was given its own interesting living space. Since that non-human life (like god).
Sunset gradually, the second floor of the wind Gently rocking the rocking chair and hammock, one was alone for over an hour to write the occasional big Lee sent information on water and air tickets, good uncomfortable! Prepared the day after tomorrow back to Guangzhou to treat deep wounds a little. Is also prepared on the evening of the Internet, reply a long absence online friends.
