It’s official, I’ve been published! My article about Xi’an’s famous local orange soda was accepted and published by Xianease, and expat magazine here in Xi’an. I really shouldn’t celebrate too much, as a buddy of mine runs the magazine and they’ll publish any reasonably well written material. But I’m still excited about it.

Harbin Snow & Ice Festival
Arriving in Harbin was bittersweet. We were happy to be there but Marina was still very worried about what she was going to do about her missing ID card. How was she going to stay in a hotel, how was she going to do anything, how was she going to get back to Beijing? Not only that, but we didn’t actually have train tickets to go back to Taiyuan and Xi’an for Spring Festival yet. Of course I tried to comfort her, telling her that, no matter what, we’d be okay and I’d make sure she got home for Spring Festival either by train or plane. Of course, my word only means so much, considering I can’t really speak Chinese. She must have felt pretty stressed, since she’s practically babysitting two foreigners.
