Food Street, Beijing.

Fried starfish, pupae, cocoons, sheep penises, snakes and tarantulas! MMMMM. I tried the scorpion - it tasted like a super crispy french fry. 

I lied. Everything is not the same.

The grounds below the Great Wall, Simatian area (a.k.a. no tourists, steep inclines, and legit Ming Dynasty shit).

I am safely in Beijing. Everything here is the same, but always just a bit more shoddy. Children defecate on the streets. Loogie count: 8. My professor served us moonshine, which is $1 CAD a bottle. Maybe I will bring some back for you all.

I leave for Anyang to dig on Saturday. Beijing will be missed, but I am excited to break out the Marshalltown trowel.

Waiting in Narita airport after being served the tiniest pickle on my flight. Also I am pretty sure I just saw a girl lick her iPad screen.

I am traveling to China in 4 days and hope to do this to many people.

This is mesmerizing.

Wtf Chun-Li
