A very quick update:
Last week I was traveling to and through Yunnan Province with Ellie, Josh and Dave (friends from church).
This week I've just been chilling in Nanchang and laying low. My current living situation is pretty neat. Staying in a nice apartment that belongs to a friend of a friend's. Just last night my roommate and I discovered that our heater does, indeed, work and that we should have tried it out several days ago. Before last night we went to bed and woke up every night and day to seeing our own breath. We were pretty used to it but having heat is pretty darn awesome. Oh well. This is the real China experience.
Tomorrow is my last day here before I move to Shanghai where I'll be volunteering/working at a community center there for the next six weeks and hopefully helping out at a church. I'll be living with a family whom I've never met before but they've been gracious enough to take me into their home. Time to get onto another overnight train! Looking forward to seeing what the Father has planned for me. Really looking forward to some quiet, introvert time, which I have not gotten in forever. I can feel myself getting exhausted from all this running around and being with people. I need my balance of space and interaction!
Okay, it's midnight. I should sleep. Good night.
