Yahximusiz!
I am on a 30-day tourist visa now, but I might need a few extra days on top of that later. So I figured I’d try to get an extension for my visa today:
They told me to come back another day…
…
So I went and had some 烤包子 (kaobaozi – baked lamb meat bun):
And some 面 (mian – noodles):
And some 馕 (nang – bread):
Me and the little Uighur waitress at the place got along very well:
So we decided to produce another classic TLW-video together:
She was the director of our feature, while I was only responsible for the cinematography.
…
Later that night, 申叔叔 (Uncle Shen) invited me and some photographer friends to a great meal of 火锅 (huoguo – hot pot) and vodka:
This one is called Beluga. It’s a premium vodka I had brought from Russia as a present for my dear 申叔叔, and damn this tasted so good!! The aftertaste was perfect, and the only reason it is a 9,5/10 and not a 10/10 is because it is so damn expensive.
This is 于老师 (Master Yu):
And this is 田老师 (Master Tian):
I guess you can tell from the pictures that the drinks were totally awesome.
Soundtrack: Raggasonic – “Alcoolo”

[...] I went back to the municipal police station to extend my visa. I needed nothing fancy, just a few weeks more to do some traveling inside of the country, until I would hop on my plane back to Germany on October 13th. Easy as pie, I figured. After all the troubles in the Western regions, I was happy to be back. [...]

barskuk: Хорошая водка, да. Но дорогая! :)

Очень дорогая, годится только для больших событий. Думаю, что оценку 10/10 должен получить домашний самогон! Все хорошего!
