Kyle in 中国

Welcome to my blog! As you probably have guessed, I'm in China and will be for the next few months. I'll be adding entries mostly when I go out and do fun things, so most new entries will be on weekends, as I'm working during the week. I'll send out email announcements when I've updated the blog. I'd love to hear from all of you out there, so feel free to send me email at kyle.lampe(at)gmail.com. If I've forgotten to include someone, please email me or just forward it on to them.

Laundry Days

Will post last weekend soon here, sorry I'm running behind, but a quick note.
I got my apartment today! It's a nice 2 bedroom 1b, a little oldish though, but nice new floors. My address in case you want to mail me anything is:



1001, Tower B, Sigma Apartment
No. 49, Zhichun Road, Haidian District
Beijing 1008
China



The best news of all is that I can now do laundry, as I have a washer but no drier (they are very uncommon in China). Up till now, instead of doing laundry I've been buying new clothes. In China that's actually possible, when you can buy 6 pairs of socks for $1. My hotel charges more than $1 to launder pairs of socks, and $8 (all US) for shirts (that's per shirt)! So far it's been far more economical to buy new clothes rather than wash them.
