Ni hao!(你好!)
I’m Rhys Wedlock of the Foreign Languages Department.
How are you?

I took my first year students to Taichung in Taiwan for one week’s Chinese study.
We all took Chinese lessons together,
and my students had a lot of man-to-man Chinese practice with Taiwanese students.

At lunchtime the Taiwanese students took us to buy local food,
and in the evening we enjoyed the night markets and shopping together.
My students became really good friends with the Taiwanese students.
We also had a really fun, interesting day sightseeing and experiencing Chinese culture.

We went to a paper factory and made paper goods, and we went on a beautiful ferry ride.

Many thanks to the staff and students of the Taichung Institute of Technology.
It was a wonderful experience!
Xie xie!(謝謝!)
