UK

Well i'm back in Britain now, and pretty glad of it. It's nice to breathe fresh air for a change. These 5 months in Beijing have been of good use though, and my Chinese has got better i'm sure. It's an interesting time in Beijing's history at the moment, with unprecedented construction and development going on, but they are paying the price. The people are certainly getting left behind - the new construction has a more modern and international attitude than many of them! I do hope however, that they will soon catch up and change.

Here's to fresh(er) air for the 2008 Olympics!
