TRAVEL: WENZHOU














were hard to decipher - it is a bit hard from what I've heard, the local dialect is a blend of Taiwanese, I sometimes get the gist of the local dialect, but not so much here, now days the area is known for its leather factors/produce to the extent that a "piss take" song was made about it (Zhejiang Wenzhou 浙江温州)theres mainly a lot of rich business men too.
we got a huge room in the hotel we found, it even had a computer lol, though ofc we had wifi, no need, just 130 for the night in the centre of the town. its a suburb so not as busy or lively as Wenzhou would be, but its china so there was still some life about it until the early hours, theres no such thing as a quiet ordinary day/place/person everything is loud and proud, but seeing as everyone is up against billions, you need to be loud to be heard haha.
