Sorry this has been so long since writing. We are now in Anshun, but we have been waiting to get our modem working on our computer. It has been very difficult not knowing much of the language. Luckily, we have a team member who is very fluent. We are slowly getting used to being in a new place with new ways of doing pretty much everything. We are learning such basic things like buying food at the market, taking the bus to certain places, how appliances and other things work, and what we will be teaching. It has been very overwhelming and frustrating at times, but it is a learning process. We are excited to be here and looking forward to starting school, though we are yet to receive at textbook. We have taken various trips into town and explored some of the beautiful area. We are looking forward to learning more of the language and getting in touch with our friends teaching somewhat nearby in the Yunnan province. We are looking forward to getting a newsletter out in the coming couple of days with some pictures of our apartment and the area. Hope all is well at home.
