detour
took a slight detour to mongolia so i'm currently resting in ulaan batar before i make my way back to china. my site's been extremely difficult to update b/c of the media restrictions in china. as a result i haven't been able to upload pictures and send in any idiotic stories from china. but soon enough, i shall. i climbed the great wall and nearly got stabbed in beijing (stories to come).
oh and if you're wondering, yes, it's extremely cold in mongolia. i've gone high and low to find warmth thought i'll admit, mostly low (i.e. rock bottom). i've found you can keep warm rubbing vigorously against others in crowded trains, often without their knowledge. if you find yourself in mongolia, i highly recommend nestling yourself in a taller woman's armpit. ahh, it's like a little slice of heaven.
