Big congrats! What an adventure you will have, living and working in China. What exactly will you be working with at that school?

Thank you :D It's all becoming more real now, which is slightly frightening, but mostly exciting!

Congrats! That is so awesome!!:) For how long are you staying?

I've signed a contract for a year, but if I like it I might stay longer. I don't really know yet! And yes, Selmer will take care of the cats in the meantime. I asked him to come with me, but he doesn't want to go, so his punishment is to stay home. :D
