Notice, however, that her internet came AFTER rural China's... Now perhaps she can get that picture of my wedding I sent her years ago.

I'm in a city called Kaili now and sitting next to my host in a net cafe. It's been really great! Not sure of my next more though. Was going to head to a village nearby but it's raining. Decisions, decisions. Christine I have loads of pics but no time to post. There should be a mass upload when I get back to Beijing at the end of the month. Stay tuned! Solar powered laptop eh... sounds like a good idea. Hey Benny and John, I’ll get in touch for sure on CS. I’m in a city called Kaili now and sitting next to my host in a net cafe.

Twenty years ago this would have been considered science fiction, a westerner traveling in China, earning money on a global computer network by means of a portable computer panel.

There really is no excuse anymore to not traveling and working remotely if that's what you want to do. Also, where are those pics? You must post!

Couchsurfing :) I'm an ambassador of CS - I can't believe you haven't tried it yet! I live by it :-P Hopefully your first host will be a good representative of the positive experiences that you'll get from future ones (even just meeting up with other CSers for a drink and local wisdom is well worth being part of the site). Add me as an Internet-based friend (username irishpolyglot) and I'll give you a reference from being a blog fan! Even small references all help you get future hosts. Yay!
