Even though most of us look like jet-lagged zombies for the time being, the experiences we’ve had in our first 48 hours in China have been completely worth it. For those of you interested, we are currently staying in Beijing, and have had the privilege of experiencing the city’s famous Peking Duck, Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, and much more. Tomorrow we look forward to seeing the Pearl Factory and Artist’s Colony before heading over to the sister school Liaocheng next week. Here are a few photos that we’ve taken on the trip so far!

Tiananmen Square!
On a hot day in Beijing, nothing feels better than kicking back on a rickshaw and being driven through Hutong. Especially when you have a great tour guide like ours, Suri!
