"For me, the "hills of Guilin" were more than just a beautiful place situated at a proper distance from Hong Kong. As a child, I heard about it from both my grandmother and my mom. My curiosity even grew in this myth.

By taking an over-price taxi, we arrived panted at the airport and discovered that our flight had been cancelled, and 10 hours later. Plus, my ATM card was not working there.However,even though started painfully, we unloaded all the bad luck at the beginning and from then on everything went wonderfully!" |
