Chinese Superstitions to enter a Hotel Room! Last February, my mum and sister both flew to the UK to visit us. While they were here, we all went on a road trip to Scotland.  You can read more about our Scotland trip with Barny here.

We stayed at Premier Inn throughout our holiday at various locations.  The last location was Edinburgh, where we happened to have opposite rooms to my sister.  I noticed that my sister went through her hotel routine.  She knocked on the door and said we are just sharing the room with you for two nights, thank you.  This triggered memories for me when I was younger I was told that I must do this hotel routine and I had forgotten! Okay, not really. I never knock the door but each time I go into the hotel room, I will inform ‘them’ quietly that we will be sharing ‘their’ room. Mr C does not believe in these Chinese superstitions thing!  He thinks I am totally crazy to do this!

I had two separate unpleasant ghost experiences while staying in a hotel with him while we were in Italy and Japan. So he was used to me doing such crazy things while in a hotel room. I don’t practise these superstitions as much as I used to be because both of my children had started questioning my bizarre behaviour.
