Today I catch a bus to Changsha. There I will celebrate Halloween and hang out with some people I haven’t seen since August. Then on Sunday I’m catching a train up north to Beijing where I will be for the next week.
I’ll be staying with my old host family and catching up with people I know in the capital. Then of course there is the fact that the U.S. presidential election is on Tuesday (polls actually close Wednesday morning here in China). Hopefully I’ll be able to celebrate with the many other American expats in Beijing, might even go dancing all over Tian’anmen Square.
