Total chilling day




I stayed home today as well because i didn't have any class. The whole school went to a museum but i thought it be better for me to stay home resting. Been so chill to just lie in bed watching movies, i don't remember when i had this much free time.

China has the highest rate in recycling stuff in the whole world, reason for this is that you can make a little money by returning cardboard, bottles, plastic etc etc to a certain place.
There are a lot of people in the street who collect cardboard or other things, you give em your cardboard for some small money, they pile it up and later take bigger amounts to some other place and get paid for it.
It's a great and working chain, the money for it is just too small for anybody in the western country to live on. We are talking about a few euros here....But then again that amount is a lot for some people here, 60% or the population here lives on 1 euro a day, those farmers in rural areas. Think of the good life when you can move into the city and make up to 5 euros a day!!

Went to eat at our local chinese restaurant for dinner, picture of the awesome kitchen and this woman in the street collecting cardboard. She has a scale there where you can weight your cardboard and she might give you a few cents...

There is this chinese guy next door who always takes his little chair with him when he comes out for a smoke. Just looks so funny...
