Обойдемся без паники

Правила ухода после нанесения перманентного макияжа невероятно просты. После процедуры перед сном умыть брови с мылом. Со следующего дня зону ПМ не трогать. Корочка будет минимальная и незаметная. Но что делать дальше?

Как переехать на край света и не сойти с ума

Когда в 2000 км от Кейптауна случилось землетрясение, первой мыслью было: «завтра же улетаю в Россию». Удобно жить на две страны. Хоть каждый день новую жизнь выбирай. Захотел скрылся на другом конце земли, захотел вернулся к привычному раскладу на Родине. Если только ничего не держит. Когда есть дети и иностранный муж уже сложнее. Бросить все в любой момент не получится.

The unresolved issues of inappropriate gender ratios in public toilets, sexual harassment and domestic violence also plague modern society.

Solo travel will alter the nature of China’s vast tourism market

I was delighted when I recently saw a headline in the Chinese media saying how solo travelers have opened up a new tourism market. I love traveling alone! It opens so many doors to adventures very different from what you can expect when you travel with a partner or in an organized group. How often can you ride on the back of a stranger's motorbike or take a spontaneous trip to a deserted beach? Or decide that you would like to spend an extra day in a place that you enjoyed so much?

Chinese women should not be so afraid of a little sun tan

It has been an extreme summer in Shanghai, with record-breaking temperatures soaring to over 40 C. On the hottest days, the only way to survive is to stay inside under air conditioning. Not even riding my bike helps, as the breeze just burns my face, a similar feeling to winter frost back in Russia, my home country. But in a Russian winter, you can easily dress in as many layers as you need to get warm; in a Shanghai summer, you can only take off so many layers until you are stark naked.

Dreaming in Chinese

Who does not think Chinese is one of the most difficult languages in the world to master? Everybody knows it! So are foreigners studying Putonghua all mental masochists? Why do they choose to spend so much time and effort trying to learn Chinese characters and all the various tones unique to the language? In fact, in addition to the billions of people in the world who speak Chinese, there is a growing demand to learn the language.
