My weekend

Saturday

I wake up and meet a friend for breakfast at Helens caf in Wudaokou. Every day they offer sandwiches or hamburgers including a drink for 18 yuan. It's a relaxed atmosphere and a great place to study - a perfect hangout for students.

After a couple of hours studying and doing research, I head to the zoo market in Xizhimen area across the road from the Beijing Zoo's main entrance.
