I plan to fly from Manchester on the 2nd of July using Emirates Airline stopping off at Dubai for 10 hours before finally reaching Beijing.I will Arrive in Beijing on the 3rd of July with Chen and will be staying with him until i leave china on the 6th of August.
While in China I plan to pick up a cheep netbook that i can use for bloging during my journey as well as a camera and a solar pannel charger.
my aims for my time in China are to:
1) experience a completely different culture and way of life.
2) meet new people and to see amazing sights
3) have a fun time and chill out celebrating the completion of my exams and the start of a life changing gap year.
i also plan to pick up a guitar while i am in china to take with me on the rest of my gap year.
I hope to see alot in Beijing, especially the Forbidden city and the great wall and i hope to try real Peking duck!!
