BACK! And it is almost time for Ha-er-bin

Alright, so today marks the first post to the blog in 2009. This is of course because I will be returning to China this summer (Harbin specifically) and need a place to record my thoughts and experiences for my friends and strangers (you) and for myself. Hopefully I will have some time to upload pictures and write here during the intensive immersion Chinese boot camp that I am about to embark on...in about three weeks time. Check out the new YouTube feed for all that you need to know about Harbin (or what YouTube would like you to know). There's also an air pollution monitor that I added to the site out of curiosity. Harbin is in the northern most province of China, Heilongjiang. More to come soon about what I'm thinking about Harbin, this summer, and the crazy experiences awaiting me. That's all for now. Please leave me comments and I'll get back to you (and follow my blog on the right side of the blog to get updates as soon as I post!)! The language pledge is only a few weeks away now...
