We learned the Chinese customs of hospitality and gift exchange.

We spent time in our hosts’ classes, learning how they learn.

We share how we learn …

We even learned that we can teach our hosts a thing or two.

We found a strong, mutual interest in making friendships and connections.

There is more than one way to make a dumpling!

We feel similarly about many celebrations!

Even though our trip is over, we want future WHS students to have many exchange opportunities.
