Pictures from our backpacker journey

We decided to put up a lot of pictures in one post instead of adding to the numerous texts we've been writing. So here they are, directly from Tom's camera, some of the things we saw during our one and a half month through China. Enjoy!

Two newly educated teachers on their way to China

Tom Christian (right) is a smiling and nice guy from Isfjorden in Romsdalen. He is 24 years old, interested in movies, reading and football. He is an educated teacher with English and Theatre as main subjects. His favourite teams are Fredrikstad FK and Liverpool FC, and he knows a lot about these teams. He is full of knowledge and loves to meet new people.

Christian (left) is a just as nice guy from the innermost part of Sognefjorden, Gaupne in Luster. He is just as old as the one mentioned above, and he loves to kayak and everything else that involves the nature. He has a bachelor's degree in Russian studies from the University of Tromsø, one year of Comparative Politics from the University of Bergen, and took Pedagogy last year at Sogn og Fjordane University College. He is hard working and loyal, and he misses his girlfriend a little bit as well.

This is our blog which we will use during our year in China. Due to a busy schedule during the introduction weeks the content of our blog will be quite limited. More will come eventually, and we hope you are patient and will visit our blog every now and then...

Best regards,
two good neighbours (in China)
