We are not getting any better...

... at keeping our blog updated. This is partly due to the fact that we couldn't access this site for a while.

Also, not much has actually happened in the last three weeks!

In fact, we have mainly been teaching and being lazy on the weekend.

Now, our last two weeks of teaching have started, and we're preparing to leave Guilin. We'll be taking many fond memories with us, and we hope to return some day. Also, this one goes out to anybody who might be interested in teaching in China: Come to Guilin University of Electronic Technology. We have been very happy here, and felt that everything was taken care of properly for us by the International Office. Thus, we'll be a little sad to leave.

Yet, we have some nice travels ahead of us: So far, we're planning on going up the East Coast to Beijing via Xiamen, Shanghai, Hangzhou and whereever we'll feel like stopping and exploring.

Stay tuned for our travels. Our blog will be more frequent and interesting then :).

Criticism, criticism, criticism

Recently, just before the G-8 meeting, we (Germany and England) got criticized by the French (Isa and Jean) for not updating our blog regularly enough. Well, that’s not a very good start for closer cooperation so we are trying to do our part by updating this site now.

What’s new then? It’s the weekend, and since it has been raining cats and dogs, we’ve been couch potatoes watching “South Park”. Tomorrow, we’ll try out a “French” bakery in town, which was recommended to us.

BIG news is that we have our own website now (browmans.com), which Lee is currently setting up. We’ll let you know once it is worth visiting the site. Currently Lee is shouting and swearing about the practical problems of setting up such a site... but stay tuned!

Other than that, we are starting to plan our travels through China and South Asia in July and August. If you know of a special place not to miss, let us know.

Then, starting from September, Europe will have us back… whether it likes it or not.
