In the distance you can see the building we will be teaching in. It is very new and we have access to media in the classroom. We don't start teaching until Sept.21st, so we still feel like we are on vacation. We go out every day to explore the city and to buy something we think we need. Mostly it is just fun to wander around. Tianjin is not a tourist destination, so we are often the only foreigners when we go places. There are a lot of Koreans in the city though. There is a lot of building going on, but the city is clean and has a great energy. I can see why Ginny likes living in New York.
