    And even living here now, the longer I stay, the more I want to leave.

      It's genuinely a tough experience; even if you have money, you can't seem to have a good time. 😅😅😅 Plus, the subways are insanely crowded and not convenient at all. 😅😅😅 I'm never coming alone again.

              I hesitate to complain, but it was definitely the most exhausting trip I've ever had. Still, it's one of those places you feel you have to visit once in your lifetime.

                Hahaha, true! Once is definitely enough. Hopefully, any future visit can be a bit more relaxed.

                  An older woman was trying to get me to take her car service. I declined. After we chatted a bit, she offered a lower price. I still said, 'Never mind, I'm not interested.' She then snapped, 'What do you think Beijing is? A place where you can just decide to take a ride or not whenever you please? You think this is your own home or something?!' I was stunned. Was it just her bad manners, or some kind of local superiority complex? I just retorted, 'Yeah, it's your city, your rules, fine.'

                    She's out there hustling for passengers, what's there to be so arrogant about?

                      I've been here for days and haven't had a single satisfying meal. The Luzhu (a local stew) was incredibly salty and even bitter. I ate at a mall food court and ended up with diarrhea after 2 AM.

                        I've just been surviving on bread every day while in Beijing.
