First Post

Hello everyone,
I just started a blog in which the main point is to communicate my experience during my China adventure to those who are interested in following it. The current title of this blog is 'Amesbury George's China Adventure', and it may change. I learned recently that there is not another approval process necessary for the China teaching opportunity, so therefore I will be going. It is a matter of packing everything I own, and selecting a bare minimum to take with me to China.
Currently, I am in West Virginia on a return trip from a family visit to Georgia (mostly) and Florida. It was a good visit overall, but it is in the back of my mind that I will eventually be leaving for nearly a whole year. While down south, I met two people who are interested in following my progress, which was a significant reason for me to do this blog. It would be too overwhelming to attempt to send individual emails to all interested parties. I am going to do some updating for Facebook, but I feel that I would rather make detailed blog entries.
If you are one of the people who are interested in charting my progress while in China, I encourage you to become a follower. Provided that there is some interest, I will make regular entries. I also have a blog specifically dedicated to my Chinese learning, so the record of my attempts to learn Chinese will not be accounted here. I also have a flickr account where I plan to load most of my photographs, so I will load very few here. Here are the relevant links;
