Hello Friends!
Welcome back to my blog! I have been enjoying my time here in China at Peking University (北大）. These first few weeks have been exciting and exhausting. I’m going to admit that having class all week is tiring, however I have learned so much about Chinese history and language.
One of the weekend excursions that IPD planned for us was a trip to the Jianshanling portion of the Great Wall. Jianshanling is said to be one of the most beautiful and scenic sections of the Great Wall. Though it took awhile to get there (2 hours!), it was well worth the trip! Hiking along the Great Wall, breathing in fresh air, and being surrounded by nature was a calming experience. I was able to take some great pictures that I hope you’re able to enjoy!
Well we have many weeks left before we return the United States. I’ll be honest, while I am enjoying Beijing, I am missing home cooking! I’m sure I’ll get through this and eat some amazing dishes while in China. It’s been good so far! Thanks for reading! I hope that you check back soon for more updates!
Wishing you good meals and warm friendships,
Me at the Great Wall of China
