Beijing was pretty awesome during my internship there, it sounds like you had quite a bit more fun than I did, haha. | ||

How do you even put up with her parents? I've always imagined it to be a pain in the ass and I don't know how you're handling it. Actually Sylvia went to a Canadian boarding school (I think it was either Havergal or Trinity College, but I don't remember) so her English was quite good. Her parents were actually surprisingly chill. Her dad was a real cool guy once we got to know each other better. Many of those insights in my China Economy blog came about because of him. Her mom was kind of a busybody like most Asian moms are, but still really nice. | ||

I thought her parents were gonna disapprove...judging from the "how much money are you spending on my daughter" question. | ||

I think they just regarded me as a phase their daughter was going through. | ||

Nah, I don't think they looked down on me. I think they didn't believe I could provide her daughter with the sort of lifestyle she deserved, which, to be honest, was quite true. I'm too much of a bohemian =/ | ||
