One morning we decided to go to the local market in the morning. At the entrance we found Cs sister with a cageful of puppies. C told me that her sister wanted to sell the puppies. While C chatted with her sister, my presence created a vortex that pulled nosy people close. 10 minutes later this girl […]

From the local market. This guy made sure to get a good look of me from all angles. I decided I liked him too and shot him taking his last glare.

Women performing on a public square in Yilan. This woman looked particular joyous and I couldn’t help photographing her. This is one of the better shots.

This guy stood firm outside a restaurant window glaring at me for at least 1 minute, while we waited for our dishes. He only moved when I took my pocket cam and shot this picture. Pretty annoying to be such an attraction all the time, but luckily cameras seem to scare most laowai gazers off.

Random street soon to be torn down. In the street you’ll notice a woman cooking up some grub on a fire.

View from the ferry carrying Cs family and I over the river on our way to honour the dead with fake money and bonfires. I was allowed to come as representative for C, as she was too pregnant for the long trip. Besides standing around looking befuddled, I couldn’t do much, but find some pretty […]

This is how happy you look, when you are allowed to take a picture of the hairy laowai visiting your massage shop. 25 Yuan for 1 hour of body massage. Worth every last jiao. Nice to know the employees get something out of it too besides a healthy sweat and arthritis.

Stealthy shot picture from the dentist. This particular clinic is basically just one big room with 4 dentist chairs with people getting yanked out teeth or whatever they need. Meanwhile costumers are waiting for their turn on chairs along the wall.

Random picture from the great wall at Badaling. Badaling sucked just as much as I thought (I felt all Karl Pilkingtonesque). For some reason, the wall never fascinated me, and if I had to go it surely wouldnt be Badaling with the annoying ammount of people). C insisted and my brother wanted to go as […]

A nosey laowai starer scared off by me flashing my camera. I never thought I’d see those hats in China. Too kitch to be true, or maybe I just roam the wrong parts of China.
