Forums > Living in Kunming > Interesting sighting at the long distance bus stn.

Well... interesting, random and perfectly useless fact that has absolutely nothing to do with this post: In Mexico, there are in fact dedicated buses and subway wagons for female passenger that do not appreciate the charming latin lover's habit of sticking their hands up your ass.

Unfortunately, these dedicated spaces are very often full to the brim, and you often have no other choice than going swimming with the squids. And therefore, very often end up with some stranger's hand up your business.
It's infuriating, mostly because there is nothing to do about it: when public transportation in Mexico City is full, IT IS FULL. You can't even turn around to try to pinpoint the culprit and smack him. It happened plenty on times to me, until one day I got sufficiently angry to finally react in an intelligent manner: I grabbed the offending hand, janked it really hard to lift it up in the air, and yelled: someone lost this hand in my ass, whose is it?
Ah, how I cherish the memory of that first time I did that... I now actually enjoy travelling in the mixed wagons.

Forums > Living in Kunming > Advice on working as a tour guide for Spanish ppl

I totally understand, warning other people about this job in particular is the very reason why I went to the trouble of writing this. And I think it was clear enough because two people already contacted me after reading this thread and told me they also worked for this woman and had a very similar experience to mine.
As I said from the beginning, it's the the only one working with Spanish speaking tourists. And now I just told you what to search. I'm sorry if I seem coy or teasing, but I just don't want to turn this into a witch hunt.

It does sounds like a veiled ad... I was drawn to the article because it sounded like something interesting could come out of it, like how do people even find kunming, why they want to study Chinese (other than feeling polite and politically correct), what do people do when they are done studying, how do they decide they are done studying, or something.

Instead, it's just... meh.

Euh... just a tiny detail: both articles about the Kenya incident state that it was the (Chinese) tour guide who stabbed the (Chinese) tourists.

Not that I defend Chinese tourists that behave badly, but in this particular article they were not the culprits.

Ignore the grumpy trolls... I liked your article, and I agree with you, Lijiang is beautiful. Next time you go, add to your list Yuhu, the town is tiny but really pretty, and you can walk I ride on the skirts of the jade dragon mountain.

Cozy, easy going bar with good tap beer and yummy things to eat (onion cake and plum crumble are my favorites), close the other places in the hongshan area. A nice alternative, give it a try.
Btw, it is on xuefulu, between la Boulange and Mojito Bar (aka between jianshelu and honshandonglu).
