I'm working on a moonlighting in China article. Stay posted! Virginia p.s. I spent some cold January days in Harbin two years ago, and I hope you'll share some of what you're experiencing there.

Most of the food is delicious. I'm working on a moonlighting article now. It's also a uniquely Chinese experience.

I am in the northern Chinese city of Harbin, in Heilongjiang province. This is truly a remarkable experience. I love the way you express yourself, and especially your insights of examining our own attitudes. Most expat issues I have noticed come not from the environment we're in but the attitude we bring with us. Virginia, I must agree with so much of what you have written.

Great Picture! " Mostly, I ate hot pot, learned mah jong, visited temples, and answered the same questions repeatedly at English Corners: “Where you from? You like China? The food?” " That line rings so much truth in my life! Great Article! Virgina- as a fellow Teacher in Xi'an China- it was great to read your article… and to see the Split-pants! Great Picture!
