We are back!


After almost a month in China, we are finally able to access our blog again. Websites such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and blogs are inaccessible throughout most of China which is why you have been left waiting until now.

We are now in Seoul, South Korea and over the next while we will post some blogs we wrote while in China as well as what is happening at the moment. You can also read our tweets for quick little updates https://twitter.com/QatuQatsi.

The time in China flew by. In 25 days we traveled over 3,600 km via trains. We left Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on October 23rd, and flew to Chengdu, China. We stayed 7 nights there, then took an overnight train to Xian. After a couple days we took a bullet train to Beijing where we stayed for 7 nights, then another bullet train to Shanghai for another 7 nights. We also did a day trip out to Nanjing/Nanking.

China was incredible! We enjoyed it a lot. As a result of covering so much ground, we were able to get a good feel for the country. Most people will visit Shanghai and/or Beijing, but taking the time to explore other places is very worthwhile as well. There are so many wonderful things to see and do in China! It is definitely a place to put on your list of where to visit.

Thank you for not forgetting about us! Now let the adventures of the past month in China begin...
