always amused to see the word "solicitor" used by a non-British English speaker. totally different meaning.

i have no great desire to visit Dubai but could be a useful layover for Europe if it was Emirates rather than China Eastern. Eg Kunming > Dubai > London.
A couple of hours in the "worst of a sick system" to change planes would surely be bearable!

because appearance is everything. it is much more important to look like a functional city than to actually be one.

yep. just felt it. don't think it was in Kunming though. probably too early to find any news about it.

you can buy roll on deodorant in watsons but its adidas. you're paying way over the odds for the name, 50 yuan for a deodorant. so its probably worth bringing some but its really not such a big deal. Some of the advice above can be ignored. Eat whatever you want to eat. Feeling a sense of obligation to eat strictly Chinese street food every day is as irrational as seeking overpriced western food every day. Do whatever makes you comfortable. Variety is the spice of life!
