Up up and away I go again, to get more stamps in my #Lego passport. #Changi #singlish #kopitiam

First time flying a Chinese airline, their air marshalls are in uniform and walking the aisle.

China Eastern's inflight magazine is 216 pages

Happy to know that #mastadon works behind the #greatfirewall

I love crossing an active runway

Need more testing but it seems that international roaming data bypass the #greatfirewall

I can't connect to Telegram from airport WiFi but no issues when I switch to roaming mobile data

It's 5ยฐC in Hangzhou and China Eastern left one of my bags in Guangzhou and it will be delivered to my hotel when their later flight lands.

I'm going to freeze my nuts off when I make my way from the Metro station to the hotel... My jacket is in the bag that got left behind... Brrrrrr......

It was only until yesterday that I learned the mandarin character for #Airbus is #็ฉบๅฎข

Shanghai South Bund Fabric Market, 2 suits with 2 shirts for ยฅ2750. Local China fabric, similar quality when compared to what I picked in Krung Thep, but it is much cheaper.

Seriously, for a set in SG, fly to Shanghai for a quick holiday and get one made. It's not that I don't want to support local, I do when it makes sense, but not at this difference in price.

Trust Bank is my card of choice for overseas use, withdrew ยฅ4500 for S$824.67

While most cards today offer no FX fees, and multi currency wallets requires you to pre-purchase limited foreign currency they offer for "better rates" and you either leave money in there or get hit when u buy back SGD, Trust card transacts live with no markups.

An exception is Thailand's 200เธฟ foreign bank cards withdrawal fee.

The bag caught my eye immediately, I'm staying 2 streets from ่ฅฟๆน– by ๅฎšๅฎ‰่ทฏ station, lovely area

I'll be back at this "wet market" that is right under a huge block of flats. It's across the street from the Shanghai South Bund Soft Spinning market.

Fruits in China are held in great regard like in Japan and I've seen some really stunning fruits.

That wet market really blew my mind and I used to eat sugar cane in the same way. Picked up a basket of ้ฆฌ่น„ for ยฅ20 to munch on while walking around.

There is a very high chance that this purpose built tool wasn't designed or built by an engineering degree holder.

I have to travel more, so I can permanently update a new routine; Wear my teeth after brushing my teeth in the morning.

Food is practically tasteless when you are unable to properly chew your food.

Bonus discovery, the Libby app works behind the GFW, just borrowed this audiobook that came off hold, a little ironic that I'm in china.

Barely scratched the surface of #่ฅฟๆน–

Can't get the #china only drops, the largest they stock is size 10... #FML with my clown feet

The mids are ladies only so NOT FAIR!!! I demand shoe equality.

@MadiqIzichi
You mean you actually buying to wear them?

@unkerplus65 yes i wear them, also looking into selling them to the pre-loved market so I can get new colourways.

Travel is always the Goretex pair in case of rain, then pack a pair and the Ultra boost Lego to go visit Lego stores ๐Ÿ˜‚

@MadiqIzichi
So you wouldn't buy that rare pair that's not your size?

@unkerplus65 nope, I like everyone to see my pretty shoes, no point keeping them in display at home for my eyes only.

I also cut 2 pants for my suits, one to wear with my AJ1s ๐Ÿคฃ
