time dilation

this trip was 7 days, essentially.  but it feels so much longer  than that. 

manic coffee & tea caffeine euphoria coupled with exhausted ennui also distort the perception of time. 

other people's bathrooms

the strangest thing about travelling to far away places isn't the pig parts hanging on hooks in street front butchery shops, nor the maze of new streets,  nor the faces that all look the same in their strangeness, but rather the little different things in the house your are staying at; using the shower, flushing the toilet, how they supply clean drinking water, their family dinner modus operandi, etc....

Curse grannies

beneath an underpass in Hong Kong you can find a group of old Chinese ladies who will curse anyone you want for a small fee.  they'll burn the piece of paper with the target's name and light incense and do hand gestures. 


the weird part is when they slap the name paper with a shoe.  the pak pak pak sounds of the shoe, or slipper, echo under the concrete.
