Even though I spend 4 years in china alone (May 2018 – April 2022), meaning I came by myself not knowing anyone in china, I still enjoy so much my experience here. I am still here in China as this book is being published, I end up never visiting the Great wall of china, but that did not make any difference, I had a wonderful experience….
If you are looking for stories or experiences that may inspire you to try your own new adventures, perhaps this is the book for you, an illustrated one (the story is basically told on a sequence of pictures, like a scrapbook if you will, as they said one picture worth a 1000 words. Teaching in a digital age was what saved the day for teaching in the middle of the Pandemic crisis (covid-19), it was a challenge but doable, face to face classes are much better but I had to teach online for a few months. Here you will find a real story of someone who came from a non-English speaking country to a country where many schools only accept English native speakers and found his spot in the sun.
