#1002
Posted on by Christoph Rehage
First thing in the morning:
Go to the central police station and grab a number.
Being number 2 on the list, it seemed as though I was much luckier this time than the last time I had tried to get a visa extension here.
We spent the rest of the day walking around central Ürümqi.
Through its quiet back streets:
Under its tall shiny buildings:
And past the few traces of its subculture:
It was the same as in many other Chinese cities:
It got most fun at night.

Thanks for sharing your inspiration and your adventure. I wish you all the best. Perhaps use your courage, artistry, and sense of adventure to help others (like making a video of one project of Medicin Sans Frontiers, etc).
I rode freight trains years before I became a doctor and worked in places like Cambodia and Sudan, when they were rough. They were good years. Now I have too much money, too much leisure, and dream about the old days! Especially young social life. Do it all for me!
