Tomorrow I am moving to Xi'an. As I pack my bags, I wonder if anybody can give me some last minute advice before I depart. What sort of materials are most important to bring for the classsroom.

Thanks in advance.

If you'd like to PM me I'll send you my phone number. You're welcome to give me a call when you get to Xi'an. I'll show you around a little bit and help get you acclimated.

Zhuhao,

Shawn

On a side note. I disagree with James assesment of Xi'an. Compared to many large cities in China, with the exception of air quality, Xi'an it is not all that bad.

Zhuhao,

Shawn

When I was in China, I couldn't believe how crazy they went for photographs! Bring tons, or digital copies! You absolutely cannot bore them with you vacation/family/wedding pics! Oh and if some Chinese colleague busts out twenty volumes of his/her photos, don't think they are kidding. Have an excuse to leave already set up.

Have a great time!
