Back from China!

Back from China!

Good bye insects and steamy weather!  Hello hot chocolate and icicles!

Hi everybody, recently I got back from my 4-month internship in Shanghai, China. I am sorry for not keeping up with the blog while I was away. I thought I could access my blog in China, but the firewalls blocked me.

There are many things to share about what I learned in China. I am looking forward telling you more. I discovered all kinds of Chinese cuisines and new and old traditions of food. I will post pictures from my experience in the blog.  Some might make you drool but be beware; some might be a bit disgusting.  However, experience is experience, no matter how revolting.

At least I can check ‘eat insects’ off my food-to-try list. It was my fault! I met some awesome deaf Chinese friends in Shanghai. I asked them to take me to restaurants where tourist usually don’t go and eat something that only the Chinese eat. Every week they took me to great places.

I was always looking forward to weekends with them, until that fateful day.

I should have known that when I said pure Chinese food, it would include insects! It doesn’t taste like chicken I can tell you that much! It wasn’t good for my poor taste buds or my teeth when one of the legs got stuck in between.  Shudder!

Here is one of many pictures from China. BUGS!
