Somewhere close to TianJin

I don’t really know where Ellen is right now. When I asked her, she said “Out in the middle of Nowhere.” She’s been staying in little courtyard rooms houses lately. These places operate as a guesthouse and charge anywhere from 20-40 rmb. That’s about $3-$6. It more of a glorified campsite. Anyways, she says this.

I rode with a college student this morning for about 45 minutes. He had a mountain bike. It’s so much easier to keep a fast pace with someone else. We were going at 26km/h but I stopped to take a photo and he went on. I’m also taking photos of all these weird ass rooms I’m staying in. The lady that runs the place gave me a bucket to piss and poo in. Ugh. And I could smell natural gas all night. I’m seriously getting stuck in David Lynch movies and I wake up confused as to where I am.
