Has Anyone Taught School In Northern China?

Tweet

I recently returned from teaching school in a small (by China's standards)city in Northern China.I taught english to kindergarten, and to three other classes consisting of children of various age groups. I was the first white female to vist this town and was warmly accepted by some and was the object of curiousity by others. My stay was for four months.The towns dignitaries laid on some wonderful 'feasts'and although part of the time I din't know what I was eating the food was very delicious.My favourite, dare I write it, was dog meat. It is a speciality in this part of China,as is donkey meat, also good but a little chewy for my taste. What a wonderful trip this was,I could go on for hours about my various experiences, some quite fearful in hindsite, but I was kept safe. I would love to hear from others who have been to this part of the world or have been on another exotic type of adventure.
