One afternoon we were looking for a place to stay without luck. One place didnt accept foreigners and another wanted 30 yuan for just a room with no beds. When we were looking for a place to camp some road construction workers drove past and invited us to stay in their tent. They took us to the company restaurant and gave us dinner as well.
In the morning we could not find any breakfast and we had no more snacks. We also had a pass ahead; 34 km uphill, about 4500 meters. After a few hours of slow progress we came across and old man that sold noodles and snacks in his small house along the road. Without him it would have been really really tough.
