It has been almost three months since I left China. With that said I am going to reflect on the final weeks of my time in Tianjin and then some. Most of my final 9 weeks were spent working, walking the park and visiting the downtown of Tianjin. Pictured here is the beautiful parks (I […]

Wendy is now safe at home. Her travels were not easy but well planned. As I write this blog she is in the final stages of her quarantine and doing well. She is thrilled with the house!! I am now navigating China on my own. My first week was spent on holiday and I had […]
