Rachel has offered to stay with her grandmother - not that her GM really needs anyone to stay with her- but I will be in China. Knowing there is someone around will give me peace of mine if not anyone else! Both covet their privacy and the house is built to suit an arrangement that suits such an arrangement. So, thank you Rachel for the selfless act.
To be fair I also need to thank Joy and Allan ever so much - they were the first ones to offer financial support when I knew that I could not raise a significant amount of money to make this work. Without their help I would only be able to get halfway - somewhere over the Pacific Ocean!
To Elizabeth and Ben who also provided money - I know it was tough what with your student loan pending. With you guys and your sister Joy I now have my ticket, money for my visa - still waiting for that; bought two much needed pieces of luggage - on sale of course; other necessary items and have enough to get on with things in China!
Now, if I can do some writing and photographs and get paid for it life would be perfect. Taking my turquoise puppet, Sylvia, with me to help with simple dialogue.
Shanghai, here I come - next stop....
