So it's day three of classes here in Kunming... And I've already studied the equivalent of three weeks worth of work at Northeastern. It's rough. We got in on Sunday after taking a bus back to the airport in Hong Kong and flying to Kunming in the early afternoon. We were then unceremoniously dumped in the middle of a busy intersection with our baggage a few minutes from the hotel. Location wise, the hotel is perfect. It's located right across from the Western gate of Yunnan university where we have class everyday at eight. The rooms aren't half bad either, just your typical hotel room fare. We were given about an hour to settle in before we met our language partners who will study with us two hours a day everyday we have class. The language partners are graduate students studying how to teach Chinese as a second language, and so far it's been great! Mine started by speaking very little English but as I've gotten better at Chinese her English has improved as well.
After that, a group of us toured the nearby street full of restaurants. I can't remember where I got dinner, but it was delicious!
