In my last post I spoke about the hard decision of choose the country
where I want to be on my next school year. In fact I was hesitated
between Canada and China and I have definitely chosen China!

Since I know this, I'm fan of China, it's a very interesting country because
of its history and monuments, older than our, and because of there
different food and way of life. Actually China is equal to Olympics
Game and equal to Tibet's problem but even if there are humans right
problems it stay a very good destination.(this post is not about
China's problems)

I have started to make some link with people
who are there or went there and I could understood that many occidental
people go and like this destination. Many people are OK to speak about
China and help you about anything! If you are or you want to go to
Tianjin, I know a very good website to know the city and make connection
with people, it's Tianjin Expats.

I have heard that China people
doesn't speak English except rich pupil and that speak Mandarin could
be a very good thing. So I'm searching how to have some notions in this
language. I think I will take some particular courses on Paris if I got
the time.

I will live in Tianjin, a "little" city about 6 millions residents next to Beijing by 100km. It's an important city because of the Hai He mouth
near the Bohai sea that's why there is a very big port. It's an industrial city which is very pollute, OMC organisation advice 20 mg/m3 of carbon monoxide and there is 250 mg/m3 at Tianjin...

However it's a very attractive city which have a very strong economical
evolution and a strategical position in China that's why there are so
many things to do. Moreover there are so many occidental people because
of his past.It could be a could thing if you want to meet new people to go out
of Chinese culture for a moment and keep in touch with us to travel in
other countries.
