Bridget Kelly in China: A Cup of Coffee:
My hotel in Beijing cost me $20 a night. It cost me $10 to take a 45 minute taxi ride from the airport. The bus cost 12 cents to ride and if I had a monthly pass, it would have only cost a nickel. I paid $1 to ride a train for an hour. A full meal cost about $3. But a cup of instant coffee costs $6 to $7. However, I had breakfast in my hotel every morning for less than $3 and that included all the coffee I wanted.
