In 2004, we decided to leave San Francisco and move to China to pursue a dream of love and service to others. We currently study Chinese language at Three Gorges University in Yichang, Hubei Province, China. Schäfer currently studies Chinese everyday too, but he doesn’t know it because he’s learning through play!
This website is our way of staying connected. We post experiences from our daily encounters as Americans living in China.
If you think there’s a plethora of photos of our son - consider them all for the Grandparents.
