My life in Xian, packing the suitcases
February 24, 1 AM, I will be flying out of Chicago to start the journey of a lifetime. I have wanted to visit China for as long as I can remember and soon that dream will come true. At Xian I will be teaching Conversational English to Chinese students and helping to supervise 23 college students from the College of Lake County. I will also be in class to help me improve my Mandarin, and learn more about the Chinese culture. I want to observe how welding is taught in China, and hope to spend some time in their metal sculpture lab. I have much to do before I leave. I did want to write something and start the blog process.

Eric, We are thrilled for your travel opportunity to China. The students, both American and Chinese, are the lucky ones to have you in their group. Wish I could go along and have your coffee (or tea) ready every morning for you. This blog is a great idea and we'll look forward to reading about your experiences. Safe travels! ~ Cheryl & Paul
ReplyDeleteIt's great to have you in China, but it is little bit far away from my city. Hopefully, I will have an opportunity to go there to meet you, or you can come to our city as well,lol.
ReplyDeleteHave a safe trip.
your Chinese exchange student,
Ken
