I was listening to the NPR podcast, This American Life one day. It was about Americans living in China.
It got my head spinning about how great a move to China would be!
The experience of living in a country that is growing as it is now. The culture, the history, the charm of the people, living in a rural village. Of course, those are all of the fantastic things. I would have to consider the poverty, pollution and other problems.
Jobs.
Jobs would not be a problem.
The podcast had one story on how American ex-pats living in China often would get parts on TV, movies, etc. In fact, foreigners bring the highest ratings on Chinese TV - just behind animals and cute children. Foreigners attempting to speak Mandarin - even better!
Well I just happen to have those three elements right here! Animal, foreigner, cute child.
Secret Agent Man even took some Mandarin classes for a few months.
A video of Secret Agent Man attempting his small bit of Mandarin with shots of 00Dog jumping and leaping.
That sounds like ratings gold.
