Fact-Finding in Wuhan

This Tuesday I will be heading up to a city called Wuhan for a fact finding trip at Wuhan University. Part of our family's long term plan for living and working in China is to get a master's degree from a Chinese university. Not only will this take our language ability to the next level, but it will also (hopefully) provide a stable and legitimate way to live here for years to come. The process for enrollment is --like many things in China--not too clear, so I am excited and optimistic to talk with the people in charge of admissions and get the inside scoop.

Changsha is near to Wuhan. See in the Southeast, Changsha is the capital of Hunan province, in blue. Wuhan is the capital of Hubei province, in pink. Hunan means "south of the lake" and Hubei means "north of the lake". You guessed it; there is a lake on the border of these two provinces.

These three will be alone for the next two days, as I leave the house on Monday morning at 7am, and return Tuesday night at 11pm.
