The Unmistakable Tourist: Episode 25

Saturday, July 4th, 2009

Taiyuan, China. “Playing with Children”. This is an extra special 9-minute episode featuring many intelligent, fun, and friendly students. (I’m living in an English Language School, so I have many opportunities to interact with students). Enjoy!

After this video, there will be only 1 more episode of Taiyuan. Then I’m off to Beijing! I’ll miss this city’s delicious cuisine (especially the many kinds of noodles) and the wonderful people I’ve met & friends I’ve made here. A piece of Taiyuan will always be in my heart.
