user experience
Beijing - user Jan Willem - 04/02/2007
Had a fantastic Saturday night in Club Banana. On the way back I had so much fun with the cabdriver while using xs2china on my phone, especially the medical and fun phrases made him laugh so hard that I was wondering if he was still able to drive. Great to finally have interaction with the Chinese people!
