Shaanxi Native in Shenzhen: Just NOT Wired for This Place! (Totally a 'Me' Thing)
-
You've hit the nail on the head. I'd leave after just a few days too.
-
I'm planning to leave this year... The oppressive heat and humidity make me feel nauseous.
-
The moment I step outside, I just want to go back home, even though home isn't particularly comfortable either.
-
The showering thing is true; in Guangdong, people basically shower every day, sometimes twice a day.
-
While there's nothing wrong with showering, having to do it every day is such a hassle for me, like having to go to work or do homework daily.
-
It's really hard not to agree with your fourth point!!!!
-
I also never expected that rice noodle rolls (cheung fun) could be made so poorly.
-
I'm already thinking of going back to Yunnan.
-
Yunnan is a place so beautiful it moved me to tears in videos. If you're really struggling, you should go back. Don't make things too hard on yourself.
-
Shenzhen today isn't the Shenzhen it used to be.
-
I guess I missed out on the good times.
-
I hope all friends from out of town know about the midges (or no-see-ums). Their bites itch for at least three days, and in Shenzhen, you need strong insect repellent for it to be even somewhat effective.
-
Now I know.
