Where I Want To Be

The winner of the what should Katie write about contest is Mark. Sure, he was the only entrant and quite possibly the only reader of my post, therefore making him the only one who cares...(jk, if anyone else reads this!), but I really liked his suggestion.

If I could go anywhere, specifically, on vacation, I would chose China. Now I am aware that China is quite large, and most people would probably narrow it down to a specific city or place, however I would like to see quite a bit of it, so I won't get that specific.

Why China, you may ask? Well, for one I really want to teach English there at some point. I think that it would be absolutely incredible to do so, and would love to be able to live in China for a year or two and do just that. But since I am talking about taking a vacation, I would probably start out in Hong Kong, just to get my bearings (English is probably a little more common there). From there, I would work my way up, stopping at Guangzhou, Shanghai, Xi'an and the Great Wall before ending up in Beijing.

I think that being immersed in China for a week or two or fifty two would be incredible. I'm not gonna lie, I think China is a pretty sweet place. It's no America, but it's awesome.
