After a very long break, I will begin making occasional updates again on this blog. I've been going to school in Beijing, traveling around different parts of China, and spent a couple of months during the summer back in the States. It feels great to be back in such an exciting and interesting place like Beijing. To start, I'll give you a quick tour of some of the places I've visited over the last several months!
 |
 |
| Food streets, the Pearl Tower, and unique high rises. The super city Shanghai continues to impress. |
 |
| The water town Wuzhen on the outskirts of Shanghai gives visitors a sense of time traveling. |
 |
| A brief visit with a Chinese friend's family in Hangzhou was a refreshing break from Beijing. |
 |
| The famous West Lake and tea gardens are among Hangzhou's many popular attractions. |
 |
| Lake Lugu |
 |
| Lake Lugu is home to one of China's surviving minority groups whose lifestyle has been largely preserved, the Musuo people. |
 |
| The quality of the water here was unlike any other place I had been to in China. |
I'll be coming back shortly with something a little different for this blog.
