As this blog is titled "Lessons in Extended Tourism" I thought it might be appropriate to share one of my most recently learned lessons. Never, under any circumstances, withdraw funds from a shady looking ATM outside a convenience store in Chinatown. Ignore the lack of dollars inside your own pockets and the appetizing views inside the Dim Sum restaurant your colleagues take you to on your birthday. And if you can stomach to ignore the ice cream parlour next door with odors of strawberry drifting towards your nose. Dumplings don't go all that well with ice cream anyways but neither goes well with someone copying your debit card.
Thankfully I caught it before they spent more than 40 dollars but these are the lessons I have to offer.
