Milking a yak


A photo taken by a friend on his trip to tibet.....it shows a Yak's calf suckling on its mother...and as soon as the mother starts milking its owner pulls out the calf to collect its milk...it is a traditionally method of milking a Yak still widely practiced in the region.

Spices of China


Garlic, spice, sea weeds...etc are eaten raw....they are served for free in all the Chinese run korean restaurants found here( pre appetizers i guess).....

Shopping for fruits and vegetables




buying fruits at a local market in China...
zenme mai??( whats the price today? in chinese)
The local price is always termed in terms of jin(chin)..that is equivalent to 500gms.......
PS: inflation is on the rise...
