Pakistan Trip

429 views. 2013-3-28 17:00

I went to Pakistan last Friday.

In the evening of Thursday, I just got everything packed. So the next morning, I went out without worry about missing some things.

I still remembered the lesson of Malaysia trip. I missed the bus because I arrived there three minutes late. When I arrived at White Cloud Airport, I only had forty minutes left. I was really in a hurry and it was lucky the airport staff treated me really well and hurried to prepare everything for me. When I got on the plane, it took off immediately. So I told myself not to in a hurry for a plane again. If I missed my plane, surely my boss would have criticized me heavily for the so-called of missing business opportunity. Though we lost in the final ground, it wasn’t my fault.

This time I also bought me a lot of food for I had a small plate of rice noodles at the price of 80 Yuan for my last Pakistan trip. I got everything ready in time with a peaceful heart.

I saw a really tall girl waiting for the same plane. When I got on the plane, she sat right by my left side. An old Pakistani lady sat right by my right side. She gave me a friendly smile and I smiled at her too. It was a pity she didn’t speak English.

The girl was even a little taller than me. I wondered how a girl could be so tall. I got the answer when she talked with air hostess in Thai, a male voice. Ah, no wonder she’s so beautiful and slim, she was a ladyboy. It reminded me that Xu Zheng said to Wang Baoqiang, “all beautiful women you see in Thailand are ladyboy. ” She was really polite and could speak English, but I didn’t have courage to speak with her, just returned her with a smile.

Bangkok Airport was really nice. It was also with Thai culture heavily, no wonder Thailand was a country for tourist for it kept its Buddhism culture perfectly. Everybody closed his hands and said siwadika politely.

I spent two hours waiting for my plane to Islamabad. Seeing around, I found only men with heavy beard and women with headpiece and gown. I seemed to be the only Chinese guy to Islamabad. All of them were really friendly.

The plane to Islamabad wasn’t as good as the one to Bangkok, though both of which belonged to Thai Airline. On the plane to Bangkok, I could watch movie. On the plane to Islamabad, I had nothing to do but sleep.  

Finally I arrived at Islamabad Airport, last time I came to Pakistan by Karachi Airport. This time I didn’t wait long to get my trunk and when I came out of the gate and found my client hold a card with my name on it. He introduced himself but I couldn’t remember the pronunciation correctly.

That night, I slept really late. When I arrived at their company, it was already more than twelve o’clock. I slept at 1 o’clock. There was nothing to worry about. The only thing needed me to worry was food. I had horrible memory during my last Pakistan trip. I felt sick when I saw food.

This time I bought a lot of food such as green bean, duck neck etc. The next day I had dry bread for breakfast. The dry breads were a little scorched and I had no choice. It was lucky their apple jam was sweet and I liked it a little. I finished my four pieces of dry bread with the help of apple jam.

During lunch, I had a small bowl of sweet and sour tomato soup and also a plate of white rice. That’s my lunch, oh my. I had to accept that. They had pancake and a kind of stuff liked coal. I couldn’t take it and look it. I took out my food brought from China and began to enjoy it. Seeing their food, I was ashamed to enjoy my food alone and shared all my food with them.

They liked my food so much that they couldn’t bear to finish it. They even decided to take it home to share with their wife and children. I didn’t know they liked it so mush, or else I would have bought a trunk of food. It was a really happy thing to share food with my Pakistani friends. Just looked at how happy they were, I was happy too.

They had lunch at 2 o’clock, which was 5 o’clock of China. I was really hungry, but unwilling to take their local food. I wasn’t accustomed to it.

You are indeed a civil, generous and well mannered guy. This is why Chinese nationals are now well respected in many countries. Food and living conditions are the most common challenges while traveling due to different cultures and climatic conditions. That is why traveling is the best education we can have in our life. You have seen more than many others.
