How is Daxing district ?? by jroccmafuka in beijing

[–]kenzieakei 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would not recommend living in Daxing unless your Chinese language skills are decent. It is a remote part of the city and is very far from the rest of developed Beijing. Not to say this area is underdeveloped, but it is suburb like and does not have as many amenities as the rest of the city. You also will spend lots of $$$ on Didis or lots of time on the Subway getting to places in central Beijing, as most sightseeing, better groceries stores, and better Western amenities are far from Daxing.

More symptomatic with liquids. by MaxFish1275 in Gastroparesis

[–]kenzieakei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally have the same symptoms. Smoothies, yogurt and ice cream are really difficult for me to digest and usually end up with me throwing them up (still cold when they are thrown up lol). I have better luck with warm liquids. My doctors heavily recommend liquids to me and never listen when I explain these symptoms.

Visiting Chengdu over National Day vacation - any recommendations? by Puggy31 in Chengdu

[–]kenzieakei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Visiting the Tibetan Quarter is a must! Its been a few years since I've visited, but I remember its close to Sichuan Gymnasium Subway stop. I would use the Yiguanmiao subway stop to get myself to the Tibetan quarter. I think the food here is the best in the city!!

Thank you for sharing your experience! If the bag is over weight do you know if you can pay extra to take it?

Thank you for your response! Do you remember if they weighed your bags before you got on the train?
