China: facts

Some of you (S' agapo Iris) have contacted me saying I should write some posts in English.

First of all, my English is pathetic. It doesn’t matter how many years I have been abroad. My grammar sucks and I will always have a strong spanish accent when I talk. So please, feel free to send me an email correcting as many mistakes as you find.

Let´s start. Next year I will be working as technical support for ICEX (Foreign Sales Institute). This is an office dependent from the Spanish government. I will be there from the first days of October 2007 till last days of December 2008.

I will be living in Beijing, the capital. So I will give some facts about China and its capital in case you are thinking about visiting me.
