Well I think I have been here about 3 weeks. What's new!The job I came to do finish the first week so haven't been working. It has rained every other day and I mean rain you get soaked to skin in no time so my mac from England has been very useful. We have had small floods and the rivers have been high so no swimming or boat rides. I have thought about changing my flight and heading off early to New Zealand but probably will stay now as I have a teaching job. It comes with accomadation and food and will pay 50 Yuen (5.00) per lesson which is ok will start with 2 lessons a day for the first week.I have been trying to keep fit so have been doing Badmington, Ping Pong, Cycling and running up my 5 flights of stairs, now that is a good workout. In the evening I like to go to the park to watch the older people dance in the dark with loud Chinese music it's very atmospheric. The food is great and I could eat all the time Dumplings, noodles and tofu are my favourite and there are good kebab places where everything is on skewers and cooks in front of you, chickens feet, pig penis and just about every part of every animals body is available but meat can get a bit pricey if you are on a budget.
I keep forgetting to look on here Soph as I read your facebook too. Lovely account of your time there so far. Good job you're a veggie eh? I'd stick to the tofu if I were you!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are enjoying your trip so far. Can't believe you've been there a month already. I hope it stops raining for you soon x
