got lost...?
Maybe you were asking, if I got lost: the answer is: no, i'm fine.
didn't get lost nor in finland neither in norway and china, and not even in my thoughts ;)
I just killed the text I wrote, because of this stupid mouse with some too much buttons for navigating on Internet (back\forward). So once more...
Where to start? where to end?
Its hard, so much happend.
Just impressions, as it is already nearly 1am
Guangyuan: three hotels sent me away, for the first time I didn't feel welcome at China.
but Stanley changed this, she just started talking to me, while I was taking pictures and invited me to her home.
well, we made an appointment for next day, and spent a great night togehter.
Chengdu: Lorraine and Joseph picked me up, it was really nice meeting them again. Dinner. hotpot. finally :) I wanted to try it when I was at chongqing.
Pengzhao: Next day we picked up the team at the airport (the others were from Hongkong) and went to the city where we were going to teach english, where we should live the next 5days.
they were (and are) all so nice!
Teaching: quite a challenge as I don't speak mandarine. At the beginning less contact to the children, but the ice broke the third day, when I was teaching them some Origami. Yes, an austrian teaching origami to chinese :)
Visa and Bike: I skipped one day for fixing my visa (driving around in chengdu for 5 hours - more than annoying. driving to longchan. the family keeping my bike were happy to see me again - so dinner together.
all togehter: departure: 6am, return: 4am *yawn*
The goodbye yesterday was hard. :'( I really felt welcome during these days, even if we never met before. I enjoyed this experience, the whole group. it was something really special. I hope I will meet them again.
Thank you Lorraine for offering me this possibility, thank you to all others for accepting me without reservation, thank you for sharing some hobbies ;)
Now I am at Chengdu once more, and it seems to me I finally start to like this city. well, some more days.
Plans are beeing made for the next days.
I guess there will follow some more detailed stories, especially for the last week, but not now. I already sorted the pictures, was online on skype talking for a while, so its late... just to say I'm fine.
I guess on Monday I will return here, this Internet is quite comfortable. and the computers are fast!!!
bye
