I am going on a 23 DAY shopping spree!!!

July 11th, 2007 at 05:21 pm

And eating EVERY meal out for 23 days.
And studying, of course.
I am leaving today for China -- employer is sending me for an intensive language course (more like letting me go).
It is partially subsidized -- they are paying my salary (I am not taking vacation for this) and the classes and housing at the University is provided.
Everything else I have to pay for - no daily allowance or airfare. But I think this is a sweet deal.
I intend to buy stuff like clothing for SO and myself, cute stationary, bedding, accessories, cute stuff, etc... China is a place to bargain hunt!
I am excited and a little nervous - I have not traveled by myself in a long long time.

I'll have a laptop and internet at the dorm, so I'll still post!

    Wow! Congrats!

    Please be careful what you eat there though. Health and food standards are not always... up to par.

    Thanks guys. We lived in China for about 7 months once.
    I am familiar with local realities.
    But I forgot whatever language I learned back then. Frown Hoping to refresh.
