Yes, photos would be interesting, especially as so many GoKunmingers travel. It would be nice to have more insight into the lesser known corners of Yunnan. It could also increase traffic.
Now GoKunming has new management, it would be a good time to consider upgrading the software.
My mother in law is a trained opera singer. When she lives with us, for half the year, we have opera on TV, audio, most of the day; and she sings along with it. I spend a lot of time out of earshot, or out of the house.
Freewheeling teachers may be an HR issue for schools, but it is less likely to have an undesirable influence on students. What is more of an issue for Chinese authorities is those teachers who have a specific agenda that is not in line with Beijing's views.
Perhaps these places are employing part time and not offering work visas. If so they may find it hard to attract ‘qualified ‘ teachers and retain them.
I know of qualified teachers who quit China a while back as every new year seemed to bring some new visa requirement and associated ass ache and cost. This seems to have reached a steady state now. Other people, like me, just quit teaching. The requirement for English teachers in China seems to be higher than that for subject teachers and lecturers. Although I stand to be corrected.
She said nothing untoward about Kunming people. I would also guess that most of her attackers have never been to Kunming. Kunming air on many days of the year is on a par with Shanghai (I check this almost daily and have done for several years), and blue-green algae pollution of Dianchi lake has been a source of much local concern for many years.
With AQI regularly in the 150 bracket, the Kunming air cannot be considered good quality. I have had some more serious problems with my asthma this year, and have on occasion used a mask.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
