Hong Kong+Guilin:I lived it

[tmajik]

hello fello shenmue fans,

i just wanted to share with you my joy of being able to fully experience both hong kong and guilin. i'm 19 years old and just got back tot he uk rom my gap year. from september 2003 to june 2004 i lived and worked in hong kong as an english assistant. whilst the real hong kong is completely different from the sureal and inaccurate game version it is still an amazing place. infact, its my favourite place on earth. then, after i finished teaching, i decided to travel all the way back to reading,england by rail. i did however make a significant detour to yangshao, a small ton on the banks of the li river. guilin is actually a very big city situated by the li river. its not very beautiful. but the countrysde and river nearby our. the 2 highlights of visiting the li river were climbing one of those big green peaks and taking a boat ride downt he most spectacular section of the river. it wasnt a tourist boat either.
so there you go. its possible. just depends how badly you want it. its funny to think how large an influence a game could have on my life. oh yeah-shenmue 1 got me into martial arts!!!
