The First Post

Before we came to China, I talked about starting a blog but never quite got around to it. During my trip back to the UK last week, I was reminded of this fact many, many times and was asked so many times "where's the blog you promised?" so here we are! I just hope that all those people who asked about it will actually read it!

Just this morning, as I thought about starting the blog , I wondered what I would actually write about. Is our everyday life in China really so interesting to anyone else? Is it so different to life back home? Does anything unusual ever happen anyway? My worries were alleviated when, as we ate our pizza at the shopping centre today, we were treated to Christmas songs over the sound system. Singing along to Jingle Bells in July when it's touching 30 degrees outside kind of sums up China for us so far - unexpected, sometimes a little inappropriate but often leaving a smile on our faces...

  1. Yay, a new blog! Trust me, there will not be a shortage of things to write home about while living in China. Never a dull moment! Happy writing!

  2. I agree with Candace that there is never a shortage of things to write about...just finding the time to sit down and actually write them seems to be my problem!
