First Post

This is the start of a blog I will be making to record my trip at China.

I will be visiting China with an organization called People to People. During my seventeen days there I will visit the major cities, Beijing, Shanghai, Xian, and Hong Kong as well as several other culturally important places such as the Great Wall, the Terra Cotta Warriors and the Forbidden Palace.

During my time at China, my group will be interacting with and learning about the Chinese people and their lives. This includes a stay with a Chinese family, a visit to a school, several different restaurants, a calligraphy class and a Chinese cooking school.

I am currently searching for sponsors and raising funds for my trip.
