6 months and abit...

It is officially autumn in the chinese calendar (or so my chinese friends tell me). However it is still 35-39 degrees outside. Anyhow, I've been doing lots of hiking over the weekends, trying new routes and trails each time. its been a ball but i can't wait for the "real autumn", when the weather cools down and i can go for longer hikes without getting a heatstroke. Out in the hills, it is peaceful and tranquil. Fresh air, great scenery and best of all, no masses of people crowded around me.





All the Longjing tea you can drink... tea fields in the Hangzhou hills grow the entire nation's supply of longjing tea leaves....

By the way, its been 6 months since i've moved here. where did all the time go...?
