Proper introduction:)

Thanks for this introduction Arnoud!

Why did you move to China? Do you speak Chinese? 

All the best,

Good question Julien. I basically moved to China cos i wanted something new, a challenge. And then i'd met lots of Chinese in Australia as well as in the Netherlands and so i got "connected" - sucked into the world of China.

I speak a little Chinese now (basic, with good pronunciation) and it does help a lot get around here in Guangzhou. Life is never really easy here however, it s just too different, but then again, you gotta challenge yourself and try to learn about other cultures. Know what i mean? Are you from Quebec?

Yes I know what you mean, living abroad is made of several challenges, and integrating to the local life (and speaking the local language) might be the most interesting part

I am from the south of France, currently living in Mauritius

and what language do they speak down there in Mauritius? It s an island off the coast of Africa right? Do you keep a blog? Love to read it sometime.

I speak English and French here. And I try to learn Creole, the local language.

my blog is here: http://julien.faliu.info (it's written in french)

Mmmm just too bad my French ain't totally up to date:)

Pictures are still talkin' from themselves
