Rebecca's last night

Rebecca Darling, the first foreigner that I met in China, will be leaving with me to seek a new adventure in next year. We'll probably end up in China, though I don't know if we'll stay in this part of the country. We've been looking at the northeast coast. The cities of Qingdao and Dalian are both enticitng possibilities. Both have cold winters, but also have beaches right in town for summer as well as mountains nearby. Both have interesting colonial pasts that have left some beautiful architecture and both have ferries to Korea and Japan. They're both a few hours away from Beijing and Qingdao is midway between Beijing and Shanghai.

But we haven't ruled anything out. I've also been looking at jobs in Taiwan and we'd both like going someplace tropical, so there are many possibilities. In any case, her contract here is already up, and next school year doesn't start until September so she arranged to go back to England for the summer (also she missed family and friends).
