Being a foreigner, did you find any kind of hostility or get endlessly bothered by people trying to sell you something?

Being 6'3" I got a lot of attention. People wanted to take there picture with me. It was funny. When you went past the many little market stands, some of the vendors got aggressive. My girl told one woman she was going to smack her if she didn't back the fuck off, her words. She learned how to say it in Chinese. I told one guy NO loudly and that worked. When they got that aggressive , we didn't even look at what they had to sell.
At a park we went to, we were treated like guests. They did a community kind of work out and we participated. Lots of different things going on, I danced with the locals and they loved it, mainly because of my size I guess. Then I some people spinning these huge tops with a whip, I bought one and joined in. Still have it. That was the best day for me, because of the people there, the culture we shared. Doing Tai Chi

I've been all over the world, I've been to the Orient before, but China has been the most interesting place I have ever been to. The old world feeling mixed in with them working so hard to become a modern country. It was amazing. , but right now, waiting to get back to a regular sleeping schedule.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
