Day 2: Saturday August 24, 201 23

I finally arrived in my city, Changzhou. It only took an hour bus ride and a one and a half hour train ride. I was picked up by two of the schools teachers, we went straight to the school to check it out and take a break. Once the break was over we met up with an agent to help us find me an apartment. I was shown four apartments and chose the first one I saw. It’s on the 20^th floor. I don’t think I’ve ever been that high in a building before and now I am living in one.  I was able to move in the same day after the paperwork and meeting the landlord. It’s a cute little place it’s kind of like a studio apartment back home. I’m all unpacked and excited to starting working on Monday.  :-D

***Two things I learned so far being here: I suck at using chop sticks and need to practice a lot and I need to learn Chinese ASAP.  :-D
