greetings from the e. coast

hello judy – i’m glad you’re having fun in TW and China. i spent 2 weeks in TW visiting janey’s family — i was fortunate enough to get a vacation that long between work.

don’t fret about culture, c’est la vie. enjoy yourself, value the differences, and enjoy what you can over there.

also, i may not be able to understand/empathize with the being “foreign-born” since, ha, i don’t look chinese as all these TW people kept saying “Filipino”/”Mixed-blood”/”Aboriginal”/”Hakka” (though they’re also Chinese…..)/etc… but hey, i do what i can w/ my pidgin Chinese ;)…
