This past weekend we were finally able to get a group of friends together who had all met while living in China. We were obviously missing a few folks because some still live in China and others have returned to their homes in Europe. (You know who you are, and Lightnin and I were at least able to see some of you on our last trip to Europe!) Their presence was missed, but we still managed to have fun sharing good food, drink, memories of Beijing, and lots of laughter!
Although most of us that spent a majority of our free time together while in Beijing work for the same company, we come from very different backgrounds and probably would never have met nor formed the strong personal bond that we currently hold had it not been for this common experience. I know that the experience has a different affect on everyone so I can only speak for myself when I say that it was life changing!
I will never forget the friends that I came to know while living on the opposite side of the earth and hope that we can get the entire group together again someday!
