Hello, I'm the new guy

[pskelding]

Hello everyone! I'm the newest new guy. Don't let my location fool you... I'm an American living and working in China.

I'm glad I found this place because I don't have any sounding boards or feedback groups here in China. I'm hoping to make some friends here and give/get some feedback.

Thanks.

Hey pskelding! Welcome! I'm sure you'll find some cool stuff here.

So how long have you been staying in China? Do you like it there?

 

[pskelding]

I've lived in China for 5 years. 4 in Beijing, 6 months in Shenzhen across the border from Hong Kong and now back up north in Tianjin which is 100 km from Beijing on the coast. I love it here so much I got married and will have a child in October. I must be good at this English teaching thing because someone was crazy enough to promote me to director of teaching in a English training center!

Congratulations on your marriage and baby, as well as your promotion! It sounds like you have found your perfect place.

That's cool! Congratulations! Best wishes to the future dad!
