I believe in people and I don’t believe in can’t. When I die, I want people to be able to say that I taught those around me this axiom not through rhetoric, but through simply being who I am.
My name is Emeri or 白茉莉 (Bai Moli) depending on who I am talking to. You can call me either if you’d like. I’m a twenty something year old Boston University grad from Minneapolis, Minnesota (and a few places before that). As of August 2008 I will be in Guangzhou, China (also known as Canton) to teach English for Aipusen English Training Institute.
I don’t pretend it all will be easy, but I know it will an experience to remember. That’s why I’m here. This blog charts my life through the third largest city in China so that I and all those important to me can remember when I saw the world and changed a bit of it.
