A normal mode of transportation here is the bicycle, a company has tapped into the market and rents bicycles to students. I am sure thousands of bicycles are rented per day, however students are so clever they ride the bicycles for free.... read more

Asia » China » Hebei » Langfang October 13th 2016

Just after the National Week here in China I had the chance to visit one of LangFangs tourist sights and explore more of LangFang.

It was a busy time leading up to his landing and the week that he was here was a nice change. On the Monday, before I had to start my new job here in LangFang I had the pleasure of seeing Nature Park.

Flowers are blooming and today, I saw clippings from the lawn mower. Believe it or not, the students only have two more weeks of me :( I am a little sad, but getting prepared to go back home!!!! I want to sleep in my own bed, eat junk food, and have a sweet dessert. Maybe if my sister reads this, she will prepare a cherry cheese cake or a banana pudding pie for my arrival back to the U.S. :)... read more
