accomodation and beers are relatively cheap there, its the flight prices than make you think twice. but its worth it. find an engrish speaking guide and go. china is great

Kind of a joke to be fair. But if people want to go, good for them.

I'll wait to one on UK shores to travel to. <ok>

but over time I have come to realize that I was wrong... if God were to give the world
an enema he wouldn't stick the hose in Glasgow.
Glasgow is where he would attach the colostomy bag.

I'd love to do a season of going to every single professional event including qualifiers. May have to do it soon before the tour really goes world wide.

My mate challenged me to do that one year, without the qualifiers, and told me I had to go to every ranking event. Even the one in a university gym in Beijing. <laugh>

Do you speak Russian, or does he speak English? Or both? Pardon the questions, it's just the closest I've come to going to a different country was going to the Welsh Open when I live in England. <laugh>
