So I have started a blog...
I am pretty new to the world of blogging, it all seems a bit alien to me at the moment! But it seems like a good way to keep my family and friends updated on my life when I move to Shanghai in August. I started learning Mandarin last week it felt like this was an apt time to start the blog.
I am moving to take up a teaching job in an international school in Shanghai. Though I am struggling with the idea of leaving everyone I love and everything I know behind, I am also very excited by the prospect of living somewhere brand new and completely different!
Anyway I will keep this first post short and sweet, zai jian! (I will need to find out how to add in the different tones on here!)
Starting this blog is a brilliant idea - it will be nice to know what you're up to and what things are like, so perhaps you won't seem so far away :-)
ReplyDeleteThe internet is pretty restricted in China, will you be able to access this blog? I know Facebook is blocked/hard to get onto.
Hopefully the excitement and the brilliant opportunity will outweigh leaving people behind - I'm very proud of you and how brave you are (as I'm sure your family and friends are too) and can't wait to hear all about it and to come visit :-)
Looking forward to the next blog!
