I spent a cool week there seeing the sights and wandering around, did some shopping and bought a shirt, shoes, a jacket, so many things, and found a cool clothes market where most of the stuff is designed to sell in bulk and lots of people in suits are buying loads of things for shops all around the world, its amazing and very cool! I was used as a standin model in a small shop as they hadn't had met a young friendly foreigner before and wanted to see how the clothes looked on white skin! very funny!
Went to the university district and wish I had come to university here for a masters, so cool! Its a massive campus, the size of a small town! with 8 different universities and shared areas with huge accommodation areas too, simply amazing!
Since I've been here before I didn't bother with too many touristy things, mainly shopping and exploring random back streets, also walked from the hostel out of town to a cool market street I didn't see last time, full of fake clothes! While I was there I went to a crazy little restaurant with an electric hotplate and some raw meat, but hey it was different and kind of tasty... I went to wash my hands and got directed to go through a small door, then up a tiny flight of stairs which looking down had 4 shop dummies creepily staring up at me, through a hongkong esque back ally warren with parts of several old shops, parts of an old housing project and all sorts of odd things! picture of creepy dolls included!
There was a serious rainstorm on one of the days and in the evening went out onto the balcony and relaxed with rain pouring down and watched the cars and people driving by, it wasn't cold there and I was still in shorts and T-shirt the whole time, so the rain was a welcome break!
Took some amazing pictures from the plane, on the way out for the first time someone had cleaned the window from the outside! wished I had my camera with me!
