This week I want to highlight our trip to a tea village outside of Xi’an.

Several students had the opportunity to dress up and perform on stage at the end. Here are some pictures from the event, from beginning to end:

Back to the tea field trip now:

 

  

There we are! If you want some Chinese tea, now’s a great time to ask the students to pick some up for you!
