China 2008

In the Summer of 2008 I was fortunate enough to spend 3 weeks in China (July 12-August 3, 2008), 2 weeks in Beijing at the Beijing Foreign Language School, and 1 week in Henan Province at the Luming Resort. Thanks to our Hanban hosts, our local group of 27 students represented Wayne State Confucius Institute while in China, along with several hundred other students representing 14 different Confucius Institutes from across the United States.

Please take a look at some of the photos I took while on the trip by clicking on one of the pictures corresponding to the week I was in China.
