Namma pakkada mithraru .. Cheen desh

Sometssing about Chinese ..
If you look tired , they serve you with a glass of water or juice immediately .
Women ,very kind , very understanding , very helpful , fashionable (read - extremely fashionable , or may be pretend to , everyone look the same :-) atleast to me ) . Drive less cars and more buses *#$$!!
Men , Like to take up all the physical work , even if it is women's work .How chivalric , gentlemen!
Children, some percentage are like why the h*** are they here . Some are like angels , yet all look the same . God , looks are so deceiving !
People , Old , or young , one can blindly trust them even if lost , you wouldn't be ripped off by a taxi or burgled anywhere . Still yet to know how this system is so much strongly in place .And ya , if you happen to pass by a middle aged man or even a woman acting crazy or playing with others , then I can assure you they AREN'T DRUNK . They are or rather ..act funny :-)
Language , Unless you are in a city like Shanghai or Beijing , no mutli-lingual issues . But otherwise , having chinese texts for your english ones are very necessary .
Climate , South of china almost like moderate climate . North of china , in extreme climate , summer , sun rises at 4.40am and sets by around 7.20 pm . In winter , can expect snowfalls , but very mild though temperatures drop to -25 ~-30 deg C .
Environment : Very clean
Traffic : Left hand driving , on right side of the roads .

A non- nonvegetarian experience

As I am seated , a smiling woman comes up to me ," Nihaou !How may I assit you ?". I said ,"Nihaou ,I need some vegetarian food please !" She offeres me some sandwich with some green toppings and says "iga suu da" (meaning this is vegetarian ).I open out the sandwich and find some flesh like substances as well as some tomoto look-a-like capsicums and some green stuffs.Any plant with root , stem , branch ..would make my vegggy delicacy .
Woa , as if understanding my inner battle , my chinese colleague immediately confirms affirmatively . The detective in me was waiting for a green signal to find out more , but I felt it would be too much for my colleague to gulp it , who jumps up if he gets any hint of me eating any non-vegetarian food . I ate ,except THAT , rapidly not tolerating my hunger . And then , asked him why he said so .Pat came the response , "It is Salmon and it is vegetarian "!!!
For sea foodies , seafood is obviously a veg' but that cannot change the definition of a VEGETABLE !
