Flowers and Landmarks

Symbol of the city of Guangzhou
2014 Year of the Horse Landmark

Guangzhou is a city of flowers. No matter where you go, there's a lot of beautiful, colorful flowers everywhere and you can find vendors selling them in the streets.
The Chinese new year is the most important holiday for Chinese people, they have multiple traditions and customs (I'll make a post about this subject later), therefore, you can see landmarks everywhere in the city. Whether it's a shopping mall, a restaurant, a park or just in the middle of a big plaza, there will be a new year landmark.

From Beijng to Guangzhou

From inside the Airplane
Taken at the airport, while waiting for my flight. This was the second time I took an airplane, and the first time I did it alone. I went to the airport three hours before the flight, even though I had already checked-in. The flight was great, we didn't get much turbulence and the air crew was very nice and always available to take your requests and everyone spoke English, so no complaints here. Air China, the company I flew with, is a member of Star Alliance, so it benefits the users of Tap Victoria. I still don't know how many miles I got, but as soon as I get the result I'll tell you. 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate. I will answer anything. If you need travelling tips, feel free to ask for them.

Take Off

Hello everyone. 
My name is Ana and I'm a Portuguese traveler, living in Beijing, China. This is why I decided to create this blog, so I can share with you all my travelling experiences. I hope you like it and if you have any question, feel free to ask me, also, feel free to leave your opinions below on the comment box. I'll read every single one and answer you whenever I can. I'm not going to hide who I am, so I'll probably post some pictures of myself. Last call for the flight towards this new adventure, please take your seat and be ready, the plane will take off really soon.
