Travel To China

I would appreciate advice on travel to china and staying gluten free. I am concerned about soy sauce. I have already copied the foreing language card. Any info would be appreciated.

Hi Rita,

Traveling through Thailand and India, I used a Nova multi-fuel stove to cook as many meals as possible. I cooked things like vegetables and eggs. I did not trust any of the meat in India. They do not use anything to keep the meat cold. For fuel in Thailand I used lighter fluid. In India I used kerosene. I am now living in Mexico and cook lots of chicken and fish. I guess I should learn how to kill and clean chicken but I am not sure I want to go that far. I do not mind cleaning the fish. I did bring down quite a bit of canned food with me to Mexico. It was easy being I drove my truck down here. For India I brought the salmon in the pouch. I only brought enough for a week and I was there for two months. Good luck with your travels!

I too have questions. I will be traveling for 21 days and know I can't live just off my snacks. Has anyone been there? Can you get plained steamed rice, hard boiled eggs, tofu from street vendors and western hotels easily without cc? Any snacks anyone can think of? I am packing what I can. I found this link helpful for me: Open Original Shared Link but you can only put so much in the suitcase. Thanks
