Another day, another Dollar lost to the scammers of China... To be fair though, where there's money (London, Paris, New York whatever) there will always be someone looking to take it the easy way.
Did you actually fall for this scam and if so, how? People like to know how they reach out to people here so they can become more aware.
Wicker basket bakery products are more like you'd expect back in the West, been getting my sliced loaf and buns from there for a couple of years.
Sorry to ask the question but how do you know her life is in great danger and not that she has just cut off communication with you?
Do you have definitive proof she's in danger? If you do get on a plane, its not overly expensive from India. Trying to do something from abroad will be slow dealing with the authorities and not as helpful as being here.

I've been here 4 and a half years learning a little all the time but the language never perfectly sticks, just slowly grows. It's a tough challenge especially when like JanJal my local spouse contributes quite a lot when I have trouble. It's something I think is always worth keeping up with if you're going to stay for any long length of time.

World War II cemetery in Yunnan receives national recognition
Posted byWas there in passing Monday and had dinner in the old town. I would've gone to this area as well had I known, for it's historical importance alone and to show some respect for the fallen of war.
