Hi,

I am teaching in Changsha for the last year and will stay here for some years to come.

Would be glad to try to help with information.

I am also seeking teachers to come and join me in this fascinating City and Province.

Please be aware that is is now very, very hot and humid!

Anne

Thank you for your greetings. I am very happy here, in fact, coming to Changsha has changed my life! I have been fortunate to meet so many kind people, students, staff, Leaders and just the lovely, hospitable people of Changsha. I hope that more foreigners will come to live here and enjoy life and help Changsha in every field, especially, English.

Yes, that is one of the many reasons I like Changsha! I love hot and spicy food, in fact I can bear it hotter than the Hunan people. I also find it very healthy!

I can only speak as I see. We are all entitled to our own opinion. Perhaps living in Japan or Korea would suit you better. I have many options fortunately, and choose to live here in Changsha

Wow, you are really an engaging lady with your own opinion about China, especially Changsha! During the years in Changsha, what impressed you most?

Thank you Daisy. I think the kindness of everyone, and the great hospitality.The cheerful disposition of the people, sometimes in somewhat
difficult circumstances! One the down side, it must be, like all foreigners, the traffic! Crossing the street must the the most dangerous thing I have ever done in my life.

I am glad to see that the terrible, racist remarks to which I replied in my last message, have been removed! Thanks to administration!

Hi, Anne! You are such a kind lady! Did you visit the famous and peaceful Zhangjiajie? What do you think about it?

Hello,

No, I have not yet had the chance to visit, but some of my students worked there in the past and have brought me beautiful films of the park, complete with folk songs from the area. I love Traditional Chinese and Folk music and enjoy watching it on CCTV9 and on tapes and videos. I have worked in Tourism as well as Education and I hope to bring tourists to Hunan to enjoy the wonderful sites and scenery.
