At its best, I felt I am Andy Lau or Anita Mui (oops, she's dead) ok ok Karen Mok on a multi-city concert tour. At its worst, I felt as if I am with the circus.. The last 2 weeks saw me in Xian, Shanghai, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Shenzhen and soon, Guangzhou. Its my first trip to Xiamen, Fuzhou and Shenzhen and I must say, Xiamen is pleasant. By the coast, its pretty close to where my grandparents came from. The palm trees, the shady walkways, the coastline, the sea; reminds me of home. U know what, I think I can live here. In Fuzhou, I ate the biggest fishball I have ever seen. Its HUGE but hmmm, so delicious. And I must say I like Shenzhen. Boy, all the bad publicity about Shenzhen must be untrue. Its so pleasant, exciting and at least there are clothes, shoes etc that are 'buyable'. :-) I feel at home in the south. Probably coz most of the Singaporean Chinese are from Fujian/Guangdong area. Its the same when I went to Chennai. I felt at home although me not Indian. But hey, the ancestors of my Indian friends came from the Madras so there you go.
Back to Beijing and then off to Dalian for work and then stay on over the weekend. Can't wait.
Cheers.
