..Yank,Well your example is stupid because you would totally be lucky if you picked the 2 months old milk over the one year! hahah...There are many more reasons, not just Air quality..to be happy about being here...If you guys don't feel lucky to live here. move...If you didn't know, luck is subjective. So if i feel its lucky to be here, it is...If you don't, its not. But why live here if that is the situation.
Bobb, Next time i have a question, I will..Thanks dude!
I would like to add, Someone said the people in Kunming are less friendly....Maybe...just maybe..you are more jaded and walking around with a big sour puss? I have found the locals really helpful and friendly. Like the man said above me maybe its the contrast between BJ and KM...but life as been good here so far.It does help to realize that china does not have the same hospitality that we have at home.(most western places)....I would be lying if i said i never bitched about china or the Chinese ..hahahah But it for sure changes nothing.
I hear you, There is always someplace better. I myself only plan to live here 2-3 years! would be surprised if i stayed longer...I guess what i am saying is there seems to be a lot of complaining on this site.. maybe you old timers could help us new comers and tell us what is good. Unless you are stupid most people already know what is bad! Like Air Q and traffic! I have heard from locals that is used to rain much more here, making it a much nicer place....Lets hope for rain.
Just moving here from Beijing ..Let me tell some of you guys how lucky you are to live in Kunming.. Its almost funny to me when i hear people complaining about the air quality ....you can see the sun and blue sky most days here.....Beijing looks like the world is ending, you might be able to have a nice day 50 out of 365... The food is a little shitty here compared to BJ,SH or other big citys... But there is cool places here and for every bad spot i have found somewhere cool to eat here. The traffic is bad?? hahahahah ..you have never lived somewhere with bad traffic!! This is china and Kunming will almost for sure be ruined eventually, but right now I'm loving it.
No results found.
not sure when they start but....lunch from 12-2 then they finish at 530
got to have that 2 hour gov lunch ..hahahah
This is a place where i was let down ...While the price is great ...even super cheap on the half price day...The pizza itself was like something you would get at a 7-11. While drunk in a last ditch effort to soak up some booze before you pass out. The cheese was the main offender! Service was friendly if not helpful...really was not going to come from behind the counter unless He really had to!
Oreillys is another place i have enjoyed. Prices are fair and the food is tasty! Burger was legit!! fish and chips not bad either. Guy that runs the place seems like a nice dude. ....Only thing that I would say was not on point is the environment.The bar itself looks awesome (maybe even a little too clean). What i mean is, You walk into the bar and all the staff (like 5+) are just standing there starring into space. In the corner there is like an owners crew speaking in french. Our waiter asked us if the food was good like 5 times.hahahah One of these things would not matter but all together makes a bizarre atmosphere. All in all will be back for sure..
A little bored during the holiday...So I feel like reviewing the spots i have ate at so far......First the good, Sals is great! Everything I have had was nice. I have read on this site that people think it is expensive ...I am not one of them. Prices are totally fair for what you get! Not to mention IPA, reason enuff for me to hang out. Also the staff is super nice ...the other day i saw some drunken girl throw a cocktail at the staff ..they just cleaned it up and brought us new drinks(people sitting next to her)..much nicer then I would have been!! hahahah
Chinese climbers among those murdered in Pakistan
Posted byI feel this should not be about politics! The facts are some people,(unarmed people) whatever country they may be from. Went mountain climbing..and were gunned down by pussies, most likely brainwashed into hating something they don't understand. To blame America or China OR Pakistan for that matter...for the actions of some terrorists is giving them(the gunmen) exactly what they want!

Posted byNot sure who you are calling a victim? But I would find that more offensive than anything that was said in these posts! Nobody is a "victim" here.

Posted byInteresting that you have nothing to say other than its "interesting! hahah!! this is what i am talking about!! Fine ...I guess its up to me again!..What i found interesting is the early 90s talk, about meeting people that have not meet westerners in there lives! Think about how much life has changed in china in the last 20 years ...whatever Jim's like to wear, he is a lucky man To see things that will not be seen again!
