Nanchang; turtles and my host family

Two weeks ago, I spent four days with my roommate Hu Qianwen / Wendy (I call her Wendy for obvious reasons) and her family in her hometown, Nanchang upon invitation from her family. Wendy and I study at the same university; Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. We were paired without our knowledge or consent but I must admit its worked out quite well between us. So close are we that I was privileged enough to meet most of the members of her extended family. On her grandmother's insistence, I was formally adopted into the family and am now one of their own. So cute!! Here are a series of pictures and videos of my trip to Nanchang along with a few brief descriptions.


Turtle. He really is called Turtle.
