aisling voyage

Some of my friends asked me to write about my trip in China but I don't know what to write as my way to travel is maybe a bit different from other tourists. For me what I like is to meet local people and just live with them their own way of living. So, as you know, thanks to Hospitality Club, I could meet several Chinese people and stay a while with them. For example I enjoyed Chinese New Year (they call it Spring Festival though its in February ?) with a Chinese family in Guiyang (Guizhou province), or I had been welcomed in a frozen student dormitory in a country side agricultural University, (in Hunan province). At the beginning of my trip, in Nanjing, a host made me discovering the interesting world of gay people in this town, enjoying gay night club, karaoke bar or special gay show, a new world for me, very warm and funny. Another time, I went to visit a couple of teachers in a small village of Fujian province and I had to play the English teacher in a primary school ! So, my meeting were very different and this is one of the positive point of my trip.
