One thing

One thing that sucks about Valencia: “They” say it’s a partytown, but “they” don’t say that their music actually sucks big fucking time and – more important – that their – supposedly awesome – parties start after 4am. I mean, come on, why should you not be able to have a great time before bloody [...]

I wanted to write this post earlier already, but didn’t get to it. So now we have a collection of a couple of days… While having a look at my Woopra stats two nights ago, I came across an article that was recently published in CityWeekend Beijing, about hikes on the Great Wall. A nice [...]

It seems inevitable that my 10yr stay in China will abruptly come to an end on September 9 this year. Last week I heard that my residence visa cannot be extended. During the last few days I have been drilling into my network for solutions, but during these Olympic times, with regulations tighter than ever [...]

Snippets intro

What is it with blogs? About a year ago I started writing a blog.

This year March I decided to get rid of it altogether, because I hadn’t been [...]
