Samples done, Lessons learnt, Home time.

Changes made and samples returned correct, FINALLY.  Doing business over here in China is a lot more difficult than I thought. Oh well nothing that some time and experience over here wont fix.

But for now its back to Australia with our samples and stories to tell, and with a bit of education on how the Chinese do things. Looking forward to my next trip already so I can develop some different products meet new people and factories and further develop my skills and abilities here in China.

First samples received.

We received our first samples today and they are good but not quite right. A little disappointed but as I have been told by many people "This is China, and thats the way things go" so back into another meeting to fix up the sizing and a few other things!

Time to get to know the city of Guangzhou !!

Started looking around the city of Guangzhou, Wow it is extremely busy compared to relaxed Australia.

And I have found that just going for a walk can actually turn into a life and death situation, as the drivers here don't really depict human beings as something to avoid!!

I saw some great structures and buildings under construction, Like this TV tower and temple!!
