Back in the cold
Getting in touch with my roots
Beijing - The Capital of China. I am embarrassed to say I've never visited in my life before this. I know, like what kind of Chinese person am I right?!
And I had many conversations in Mandarin today. Needless to say, I struggled through many a few of them. But hey - I managed. I have a feeling this job is going to force my Mandarin to improve which is not a bad thing, really. I'll be able to call myself well and truly Chinese, instead of just a banana.

Off for dinner in an hour so better go get in the shower. I sure wish Hubba and the doggies were all over this room :)

The first time I visited Beijing, it had looked like this too. *shudder* So freaking cold! I hate the cold. Thank goodness for warm weather down south now! =)
P/S. Really love your playlist. =)

Are you still in Beijing? I’ve moved here now and will be here for a year! Wished we’d met up!
