1 month in Beihai

I've been in Beihai for a month now and have the intensive individual programme with 6 hours a day. Personally, I think that's a bit too much, but it's definitely doable. However, if you also want to explore and experience a lot outside of school during the week, then it's a bit much.
The city is very quiet and it's a lot of fun to drive around with the scouts. Of course there aren't as many sights as in Beijing, but so far I've never got bored. The staff at the school always go out of their way to find new excursions. My personal highlights so far have been colouring clothes, making lanterns and of course all kinds of eating out (you can always trust Savanna's recommendations). I made friends with the other students very quickly. Everyone is very nice and helpful.
Besides I really enjoyed my evening walks on the beach.
I am also very happy with my two teachers. Summer is always very well prepared and I think I have made good progress thanks to her. I also had a lot of fun with Vicky and practised speaking a lot.

I can definitely recommend the school!
