Here’s my first encounter of the censored Internet world in China - the wordpress domain is apparently blocked… so I had no access to this blog while I was traveling over the past two weeks. Will resume once I get over the jetlag.

I’ve added a page called Travel Info to include some notes on traveling to China. I’ve added a subpage, Beijing. This will be updated regularly as I plan my future trips…
