[quote=BOOSYBOY,287759]Jabarootoo, I am currently travelling around China. Infact at the moment I am writting this I am staying in internet cafe for the night. 
I have spent over 40 hours on a Hard Seat and it is bareable if you remember to move around a bit. This is how the vast majority of Chinese travel. Why come to another country, to see another culture and then behave by living in the same why you would in the WEST?

Internet cafes are not normally FULL of smoke. Occasinally I get stuck next to someone who blows fag smoke in my direction but this is only breifly and tollerable.

FOOT MASSAGE, Now this is one I agree - that IS a good suggestion. Public Bath houses are a good option too IF cheaply priced (never pay more than 30 - 40 yuan for a spa house including massage and all you can eat buffet, and bed). HOWEVER these can be dodgy and not only with prostitution (nothing wrong with offering that anyway,) but many of these places will scam forgeiners by making you pay a bill you didnt order and then have several "friends" show up to enforce that ! Beware!

<<<And then there was the time we got stranded in Western Sichuan but I was travelling with a pretty shrewd young Chinese friend who sweet talked a few rides for us>>>
So you got some pretty young girl to mainpluate some of the poorest people in the world?? Nice!

<<<Offer them your seat one day too.>>>
One thing I notice, unlike the west, Chinese allways offer seats to the elderly![/quote]
