About

RecordingBeijing.com is a blog dedicated in capturing and recording the everyday life in Beijing, providing useful information about living in Beijing, such as food, travel, shopping, housing, transportation, culture and customs, leisure, arts, and more.

Being a fast-changing city, Beijing is losing its precious memory on a daily basis. Traditions, cultures, architectures, arts, and lots of other “old” elements of Beijing are being replaced by the brutal wave of globalization.

The old and the new Beijing is being presented in different media forms in various ways. You can find sound clips, pictures, and videos of different people, things, places, and events in Beijing. Read the articles, listen to the sound clips, and watch the videos now, because some you experience today may no longer exist tomorrow.

No celebrities, no world-changing events, and no grandeur figures. RecordingBeijing.com only focus on the ordinary life of ordinary people, because they are the ones to make history and shape the future.

I mainly talk about Beijing on the blog but sometimes I’ll also be rambling about stuff happening in other places of China. If you want to have a better understanding of Beijing or China, this is the place to get that information!

A little about me

My name is Huibo. I’m an unemployed stay at home husband, day dreamer, crappy guitar player, wannabe rock star, part-time translator, dog person, questioning authority now and then, love beer more than anything and get drunk in no time, hate cigarettes but smoke a lot, heart broken ex-employee of a major digital TV operator, post graduate of Stirling Uni, Mongolian that cannot speak Mongolian, passionate video producer,  dislike cars because they make the planet more dangerous for humans to walk on (30,000,000 people are being killed or injured in car accidents every year, they are human beings like you and me and it hurts to be hit by anything, let alone steel on wheels-I guess I’m getting really paranoid about this), good listener, self-indulgent… Also, I’m a very kind, loving, friendly, compassionate, considerate, and helpful guy.
