    As a life-long spice lover, if I ever visited China I'd go to Sechuan for sure. I just love how spicy stuff is literally EVERYWHERE, it's like you died and went to chili heaven. Also by the time I came home I'd be at least 30 pounds heavier.

    Whoah! Almost 4 hours? Imma binge-watch myself to these Chinese Street Food documentary! I'm sure, I can forget Michelin stars, Sichuan street food has chili pepper stars. The more stars, the more you'll need a fire extinguisher (figuratively, of course). Kidding aside, this is exactly why I want to visit Sichuan. Hopefully, my travel dart would land one of these days!

    I was volunteering at the Shi Shi Jincheng Highschool of Foreign Studies, teaching English to 1200 students aged 12-15.
    Didn't receive Chinese lessons as I was promised so the language barrier could be challenging at times.
    Received 600 Yuan a month for food and was provided a small, cockroach infested apartment in the city.
    Other than that, it was one of the coolest experiences of my life.

    The guy tossing the noodles with a cig in his mouth is still the craziest thing.

    I find it hilarious when Trevor gets a bowl of noodles and staff come and mix it for him, as if he wasn't going to. Like he didn't just order speaking perfect Chinese.
