slow boat to China

I went to buy a Lonely Planet for China today. I bought one new in Itaewon (after I didn't get hold of a used copy). I also sold my guide for Japan to get rid of some weight and make some cash.
I then tried to find a travel agent that spoke English and would sell me a ticket for the ferry from Incheon to Tianjin in China. I went to several agents but none sold any ferry tickets. I guess I have to manage that over the phone (or, in the worst case, go to Incheon on the subway and buy my ticket at the ferry terminal).
In the evening I cooked for my hosts and just relaxed some more. I seem to get more exhausted and stress out these days. It's probably because I have travelled for so long now and Asia can be very stressful as well.

What did you cook? I had to cook German for hosts twice and once I made apple pancakes and the other time we made potatoe salad and meatloafs... Or did you just cook something random? (Sorry, I'm a little food-obsessed ;))

I did Ratatouille, one of my staples... I usually cook either that or a Thai curry.
