WOW Your blogs seem to not stop amazing me. These pictures you take make you feel as if you were. It look as if you were in another world. The description you also write out are amazing. YOu should write a book on this.
military training!? that seems so...
but wow. you have a lot of students. but I'm poistive they will not give you the headaches of your american students....:)
Photography/Geography I am continually amazed at the photos you have on your journals, very descriptive and clear. As I said before, I am learning more about that part of the country's geography and way life of the local people.
For instance, in the bottom 27 pictures I only saw 1 car. Certainly not the norm in any US school!
Today you called my french class to talk to miss hoffman and she told us it was you and alot of people said how cool you were and how much they missed you. Just a thought. the new teacher Mrs. Lautern is cool she's adjusting really nice to the class and the enviroment. Well have to go and hope you can come down and visit us one day in the future.
WOW! Very very nice! I see so much is going on! So much for me also--- By the way my summer in Germany was lovely.
Our new German teacher - she is really nice, but she tends to think that its like a kindergarden class- and we get smiley faces and other little baby activities as such. I miss you so much. I have put Chinese classes on hold for a moment- its just too much for me right now--- and I have suddenly found how interested I am in the human body and how much I love Anatomy class and maybe that is my path to the future- I am not sure yet.
Missing you,
Victoire J.

PS. It seems that pandas are one of the luckier mothers. I wonder if they know how good they have it?

Greetings From Your FL Dept. Hans: I have really been enjoying your travelogs. More importantly, they have been highly instructive. How little we Westerners know about the Chinese. And that ignorance is hurting the entire Western World.
Stephanie is really a great lady and a super Chairperson who always works her tail off regardless of what she is doing. She is doing a super job and all of us (including our two new colleagues) are doing very well. Your old friends and colleagues, however, do indeed miss you and all of us are delighted that your Chinese adventure has turned out to be so spectacular. All the best to you, my friend.

I want to go to Tibet, too Hans, I'm teaching in Nanjing now. I signed up for your blog before I left Atlanta. Taking the new Tibet train has been one of my goals, too, so I'm really enjoying the blogs about your trip. How' the breathing at that altitude? Did you use the oxygen on the train? Thanks for providing great descriptions and photos.
i am so glad that you have so many former students and colleagues that are interested in reading your blogs, because Americans can often be so apathetic, and your blog is a way for many of us to see how other people live, and to empathize with others and be more compassionate.
nobody here in miami ever forgets you... we are alwayssss talking about little moments with you or anything that we remember. even students that graduated 2 years ago whom we are still in contact with... everyone. everytime we walk in the german room someone is sure to say something (good!) about you, or say "holy schinken" or something like that haha.
remember that you must attempt to come for our graduation, most of us mention it everyday haha
love always.
After 38 years as a Foreign Language Teacher and Foreign Language Dept. Chair at Coral Gables Sr. H.S., and A.J. Professor of German at the University of Miami, I have left Florida in June of 2006, where my home is in Miami Beach, Florida, USA. I have just signed another year's teaching-contract (my 8th year now) with Taizhou University in the city of Taizhou, located about 3hrs north of Shanghai, in Jiangsu Province, CHINA.
I thought it would be informative for others and rewarding for me personally, to log the progress of my efforts from beginning to end, as a Travel and Photo Jo... full info
