CHINA
Country Overview:
“Love the food, hate the government”
I arrived in China in May 2013 and left August 2020. I taught English for awhile, did my master’s of politics & foreign policy at Tsinghua University, worked for a year at China Today, and then two years at Xinhua News Agency. I spent most of my time in Beijing, but also traveled to Shanghai, Wuhan, Inner Mongolia, Shenzhen, Panjin, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Qingdao, Xi’an, Sanya, Macau, Taiwan, and Hong Kong.
New Year’s Eve tomorrow and South Korea in a week
Happy to be leaving Beijing, if only for a couple days. Here’s a picture of one of my students to brighten your day
Kids from my PK1 class, ages 3-4
Had a birthday party which explains the poorly made birthday hat that Michelle demanded she wear for the entirety of class. While Julie thought it was important to inform us every 10 minutes that she had a pink sticker on her forehead. And as for my man Pipi in the 1st picture, I have no idea.
