Life of a Wuhanite

After about two months in Wuhan, I'm learning more about this interesting city and the people who live here. I got to test my knowledge this week while showing a friend around town!

Snow Stars!

The Sierra Nevada National Park in southern Spain is home to various species of plant and animal life. One plant in particular is found only in the mountains of this national park.

The Jardin des Plantes

The Jardin des Plantes is the main botanical garden of Paris, in the Fifth District. It's not just full of exotic plants, though. Other surprises are in store for visitors! Let's take a look.

Bee-lieve it, Honey!

One little known fact about Paris is that its monuments are home to one of earth's most important creatures. It's none other than the bee! Let's take a look at what makes this insect so valuable.

Time for Σχολείο, so Let's Get "Schooled" on Cyprus!

Έλα! (“Come!”) Join me as I share about my life in Polemidia, Cyprus, and my trip to Georgia (the country). Are you ready? Καλό ταξίδι! (Have a good trip!)

Bonsais of Barcelona: More than just Baby Trees!

In this post, I pay a visit to Bonsai Collection of the botanical garden of Barcelona to take a closer look at the figueras, or fig trees, that are often found around the city.

Weekend Adventures

This week I was lucky enough to see another gorgeous place in Taiwan. The Li Song Hot Spring is nestled in the mountains and requires a challenging hike, but the view is worth it!

Baozi and Other Beautiful Food

I hope you're hungry! This field note is full of delicious new food from the Dongbei region (northeast China).

The Boss Is In Town

In addition to teaching this week, I spent a lot of time being a host to my boss. We had delicious meals, fun walks in the park and much-needed conversations. Enjoy this update on my week in Shenyang.

Have you eaten?

"Three cups chicken" is a Taiwanese favorite, and one of the first dishes that my Chinese teacher taught us to make after we asked if we could have a Taiwanese cooking lesson.
