Living for the Beijing Weekend

I'm BACK! After my Shanghai toils and troubles, i'm super glad to be back in Beijing. Fully rested and fully recovered! In fact, we did quite a lot over the weekend. Went to 798- this arty farty place with lots of arty farty people, galleries, cafes...



One of the exhibits was this giant tube made up of newspaper, with tv screens stuck inside. Nevermind what the interpretation of that is, but the thing ends with a slide, so we went on it! This is mountain man going weee...


Me held at gunpoint.


At the bookstore. I like this picture.


I exhibit my new sunny yellow maxi-dress.


Going backwards, before 798 we were at The Bookworm Club. It's a very cool bookshop/restaurant concept.



No photos were allowed but i stole a few shots anyway. There were shelves and shelves of these books- old stuff, new stuff, Music, Theatre, Film, Photography... It's a perfect place to hang if u wanna get lost in ur own world cos it's very quiet. Don't expect great food though.

AND, we also met-up with Karma C and Hubby! Like Internet Dating, but less weird, and it was fun! Let's totally hang again. Yay!
