Leaving Shanghai
I promised someone I try to write in English so that she’d understand at least a little bit so here goes! Arriving in Haikou was a sweet feeling especially after being stuck another day in Shanghai because of fog (What the hell? Fog? Really?) and staying at this shitty hotel in the middle of nowhere at the airlines expense. All I wanted to do was go back to Rock and wood Hostel and continue to hang out with this bunch of incredible people that we met during our stay in Shanghai. Nisse, being the more experienced traveler, was right - it’s dangerous to get overly attached. You only end up missing people you hopefully will but most likely won’t meet again. I can’t say anything for the other two but for me it feel like I left behind a potential mentor (Kevin you better come to Sweden in august!) and a person with the most incredible smile that will take me weeks to stop thinking about!
We’re now in SanYa which is really warm and all the three of us ever wanted, it’s so awesome and I plan to look like a fuckin’ crayfish tomorrow night from all the excessive sun bathing! We’re at a good hostel but are thinking about going somewhere away from the city pretty soonza, perhaps somewhere with pristine white beaches a plenty of Tsingtao!
Now all I can do is hope that you guys read this like you said you would, and I want you to remember that you made Shanghai awesome instead of the shithole we originally thought it would be! Remember us ‘cuz we’ll definitely remember you!
