Dear Tom,
Hello! I’m so glad to hear that you’re having such an amazing time studying in China. As your close friend and pen pal, I feel proud to share my thoughts about the incredible journey you must be experiencing.
Firstly, China is a country with a rich history and diverse culture. From the Great Wall stretching across mountains to the vibrant streets of Shanghai, there’s always something new to explore. Have you visited any ancient sites like the Forbidden City or the Terracotta Warriors? These places not only tell stories from centuries ago but also provide deep insights into Chinese traditions and values. I hope you’re taking plenty of photos to remember all these breathtaking moments!
Secondly, I imagine adapting to life here might have its challenges. The language barrier could be tricky at first, but don’t worry—people are generally kind and willing to help. Learning some basic Mandarin phrases will make communication easier and create opportunities for deeper connections with locals. Plus, food! Chinese cuisine is world-renowned, and I bet you’ve already tried dumplings, hot pot, or dim sum. Don’t hesitate to dive into local markets and street vendors—you’ll discover flavors you’ve never tasted before.
Lastly, I’d love to know more about your experiences so far. What has surprised you most about living in China? Do you feel homesick sometimes, or are you completely immersed in this new adventure? Whatever it is, please keep me updated because sharing your stories helps me learn more about America too.
Take care of yourself, Tom, and enjoy every second of your stay. If there’s anything specific you need advice on or want to talk about, just let me know. Looking forward to hearing all about your adventures soon!
Best wishes,
Li Hua
