Singapore/China 2025

China really hits differently – what a day, what a trip. First stop of the day I directly wanted to try a classic, old Beijing dish: Lu zhu. Never heard of? If you are vegan, vegetarian or have an issue with giblets I recommend to stop reading here. Still here? Welcome to the world of…

As you might know I am a weak auditory learner and as I had today basically the whole day a tour, that felt partially like a lecture, I try my best to share my insights that I gained during the day. By the way it was raining cats and dogs the whole day (literally; seems…

A happy Hanna that comes from her swim in the hotel pool now drinking her Oolong tee and is about to write this latest post. Today’s topic (once again) is a very small one. So in order to narrow it down, I would like to, as shield and sword, start with something as dry as…

Contradictonary. Confusing. Complex. My feelings during this trips are about change at least ten times a day so that’s clearly not an easy question to answer to with a clear response. It was definitely a bold decision going alone to China – but one I don’t regret at all. On the one hand side this…

Which is one of my favorite movies btw. After arriving, not in Tokyo, but in Beijing, that pretty much describes the state of the art. Beforehand I had the best flight experience so far with Singapore airlines (dad, we do not only share love for Singapore but also strong affection for this airline). Keyword hot…

At the airport again – if you are wondering why I am leaving Singapore already, it was a planning mistake (details in my very first blogpost; don’t book a trip when you are halfway asleep studying for your hunting licence). I am leaving the city in a couple of hours for China. As the jetlag…

Made it to Singapore – a small step for mankind a big step for HLG. Driving from Changi to my hotel in Orchard Road I was completely overwhelmed by the beauty of the avenue and its flora. So clean, so perfectly organised. Isn‘t that miraculous for a nation that is younger than my parents (they…

The dawn of a new day. The feeling of departure and a new chapter I am slightly addicted to. Today is the day. I am actually heading into my adventure to Asia. I am leaving behind my protestantic work ethics for 2,5 weeks (how should I live without e-mails?; hard when you have the sense…

I quote here directly from my favorite Chinese lawyer. But due to the different interpretations of intellectual property rights between our hemispheres I hope this is okay anyways. Honestly, I perceived myself as tough cookie when it comes to learning (it is not fun studying with me, trust me). And besides that I thought after…

Technically I am aware that this not exactly the post you might expect on a travel blog – but as I am kind of an experienced immigrant now I thought I share this anyway. If you are interested in my trip alone, just skip. So what is it actually like living abroad? Is „Goodbye Deutschland“…
