Chongqing & Chengdu

My brains are still a little bit confused about Finland's and China's 8 hours time difference, so I woke up pretty early today..well luckily I got 7-8h sleep last night. Feels still so weird to be back in Finland. Here is so damn cold compared to China T_T Anyway I'm going to meet Xiao this afternoon, and because I woke up much more earlier than I was supposed to do, I decided to post first part of China now :) (some pictures of first day I might upload later to this post, so don't care)

Heading to airport and the first drinks we got in Chongqing



So let's do this :)
9th of July me and my boyfriend flight to China. The flight took 8h and we arrived to Chongqing 10th of July 7AM. Honestly I don't remember anything from the first day, because i couldn't sleep on the airplane so my head went totally crazy..
My boyfriend's parents came to pick us up from the airport and IF I remember right, first we went to get something to eat, and after that we drove to the mountains where our hotel was (we stayed in a hotel one night because Chongqing isn't my boyfriends hometown, we just took flight there). One thing I defiantly remember from that day; was so so so so so hot. Chongqing is one of the most hottest city in a whole China so no wonder..

While driving to our hotel papa asked me if I would like to go to sleep for couple hours, but I didn't wanna miss anything so I said nahh it's okay, I can handle it, but just couple hours later when we went for a walk with Xiao, I got so damn tired that we decided to walk back to hotel and go to sleep. And so we did, I fall asleep with all clothes on and slept happily 2h.

After a little nap we went to eat with papa's friend's from Chongqing to..somewhere (I was still asleep....) and only thing I remember is that one dish on the table was Chongqing-style fish, and I don't know does any of you know this kind of spice which Chinese use (used also in Chinese hot pot !!), it's like small seed and if you eat it your whole mouth start to feel so tickling !! I hated that feeling so much, but I just continued eating the fish because it tasted so good..and other dishes I don't even remember. So as you can guess, after dinner I went back to sleep again, and now slept happily 5h :) Rest of the day we were just hanging out in the hotel and watching TV.


【Day 2 

Next morning we woke up pretty early because we were heading to Chengdu by train. Before that we ate our first Chongqing-style Hot pot and then we drove to train station. Thanks to papa we were sitting in a first class and we got free tea serving from the captain :D Train trip took about 2h and papa's friend picked us up from the Chengdu railway station, which is by the way biggest train station in a whole Asia !!







I took this one while sitting in a train : )
  
Finally in Chengdu !!!!

First day in Chengdu we spent organizing our stuffs from suitcases and later on we went to hair salon to cut our hairs a little. After going to Chinese hair salon I started to hate Finnish one......................God damn what massage I got there !! In Finland they only massage your head skin for couple minutes, but there we got almost the whole body- massage *-* They even cleaned our ears which was kinda..distressing :'D 



I just got pretty bad news from the hairstylist..I have been coloring my hair too much..so now my head skin had a infection and the skin is bleeding all the time :( He said my own hair is pretty strong, I just had coloring it too often. I decided to stop coloring it now, also mama gave me medicine- shampoo which luckily started to help :) Well..at least I got my lesson T_T"/

Later in the evening we went to restaurant in Chengdu and I ate very well :) And the first buy I bought was lip balm lol..my lips got so dry in the airplane so I was suffering with eating spicy food. I also bought these blackhead (?????) removal-things.

At home my mama said she has a gift for me and she wishes I will bring it back to Finland. She bought this for me from Hong Kong !! 

Two super cute towels and indoor-shoes <3


So these were my very first days in China & I will add more pictures for these days as soon as Xiao gave them to me :) Have a nice weekend lovelies ♥
