We apologize for taking a year and a half to post about what our daily routine/life looks like. For the next several posts, we will let you in on what living in China is like for us.

First of all, we live on the east side of town and almost everything we need/do is within walking distance for us – or at least a short bus ride away. Because we are students and attend class 5 days a week, this post is dedicated to the walk we take to class. It takes about 25 minutes, so much of the video below is sped up, but hopefully you can get a good visual of one of our most important daily routines. (*our camera memory ran out 1/2 way through, so we’ll have to post a second video next week)

This day also happened to be the heaviest snow we’ve had since moving here!

Here are a few more still photos from around town that day:

The snowmen weren’t made by us, but we thought they were pretty clever, and characteristic of where we live. On the left is a Tibetan man in traditional clothing, and on the right is a Chinese Muslim woman in the traditional headscarf 🙂

Stay tuned for Part 2 of our “walk to school” video…
