Shanghai wash

Monday, May 15th, 2006
In Shanghai they don’t have self-service laundry shops which you find in western countries. I miss that.
you couldn’t possiblly imagine how I operate the washing machine in my apartment. It looks like the washing machine which you’ll find in a garbage yard. It’s amazing that I can make use of it.
I’ll try to take a picture of it(can’t afford a digital cam) when possible.

Life is gooder (training in Suzhou)

Thursday, May 11th, 2006
Suzhou(or 苏州) one hour train from Shanghai, famous for its gardening and canal in the city, also known as oriental Venice.
Last year I had to give training to Suzhou engineers who are not familiar with the software. It was for 2 months, It was hard as hell, one of my colleagues from Shanghai even got ill at the end and I believe I have lost some weight from that.
This week, I get training from the engineers from Hamburg. It is awesome, it is cosy, we should have this kind of stuff more often:D.
p.s. None of us was expecting this nice training, we didn’t take the camera with us, so excuse me for not be able to upload any photo.
