WhiteBear in China

2012-08-25

So I am here. In the land that I love. Between people, that are one of most kind in the world that I know.This is my second home, in both metaphore and exact meaning.As I recognise my previous visits in China I always felt here like at home, no difference, no longing for "homeland" left behind.Now also it is really my second home, since I decided to move all my life here, and I mean - for good.It has been 40 days since I arrived. What I done since then:- refreshed my "survival" Chinese skill- made apartment my small home (some personal addjustments, and of course equiping the kitchen!)- recognised city (Kaiping), off course not all of it, but most part of the center (by almost everyday 2-3h walking sessions)- made some quite good pictures- experienced 2 typhoons (including one direct strike)- settled on my position in work (and I don't mean only tea-mug and desk in the factory that I visit here...)- lost 7kg of excesse weight, that makes about half that I needed, so still some work to do...Is it my home now? Not exactly. I still wait for my soulmate to be found. Only with Two - house or apartment becomed 100% Home.I'm not in big hurry, because I intend to live in China permanently, working for my company. But... It is much better to share. And by sharing life I do not divide it by half, but multiply by 10 ;)I also don't feel comfortable without Chinese language skill, so I learn at home, and look for a tutor.No time for "school style" lessons, because I only have evenings and weekends free.OK, I look forward to fix it :)14.09It have been 2 months :)Many things changes, and all for good.08.01.2013New Year, and in few days it will be 6 months in China.My opinion about China have not changed. It is still probably the best place for me.Work is now a bit boring, but still have many advantages, so I'm OK with it.Soon New Year Holidays, what to do? - improve my Chinese- perform few sessions of my photographic project- do some paper-job (in meantime between the other activities)- maybe short trip or two? who knows...- maybe meet new friends in "real life" not only "souls in QQ"
