The Great Adventure Ahead-China 2012

The day is almost here! Less than 12 hours until myself and 23 other students will be on our way to China. I must admit, it’s hard to pack and plan for what is ahead. Not knowing the future is what makes this trip exciting. When trying to decide what to pack, I thought about what the amenities that our stay would have for us. Will we have the same things that we are accustomed to here in America? How far will we have to travel for food? What is the weather like? Should I pack light or heavy? Warm or cool? Well, after many thoughts and considerations, I decided to pack light. The weather in Tianjin, our host city, is very similar to the weather we face here. Hot and humid is expected throughout the day and at night it is cool. I have decided to take my North Face just in case the weather is cool on a Tianjin on an exciting night. I cannot wait to get to China and find out the answers to my many curiosities. This is going to be an exciting trip! There will be many pictures to come from China!

My name is Josh Hale. I am a Junior majoring in Business Geography. I anticipate graduating in Fall 2013. I am from a small town in Tennessee, and this is my first experience traveling outside the United States. I am looking forward to seeing the country of China from a geographical perspective as well as a business one. I hope to give my followers an idea of exactly how life is in China, and hope to enhance their knowledge of one of the upcoming economic powers of the world.
