I’m writing from the top bunk of a sleeper train bound for Xining, Qinghai. I spent this evening having silly conversations with my fellow passengers and playing games with the 3yr old that was staying with his family in the same compartment as me. Sometimes, last year, i found it wholly incomprehensible that i was actually in China and travelling or doing whatever. But now, it is just starting to feel natural. I’m looking forward to the time when I can quickly move past the usual conversations that I have with Chinese people have substantive conversations that can yield real understanding. I’m out looking for adventure this week. I have no idea what i’m going to do or where i’m going, but i’m aiming for an adventure. I wonder if i make this attempt at getting to know ppl in my own country. Why is it that i’m a more open and free individual outside the country?
