Emmanuel Doming- The Author

Hi, this is me, Emmanuel Domingo, and I am writing to tell you about my experiences here in Qingdao, China, including some of the wonderful people I met along the way. We were invited as participants to the Seminar on Intellectual Property System and Protection. I am Manager of the Advocacy Dept of the Philippine Chamber of Commerce and Industry. But enough of me, there are more interesting people I would like to tell you about.


No, this is not a scene from the Korean tv soap opera "Endless Love" but I hope it was! One of my favorite sites to see are the trees in the right. My friend Maya (I'll tell you about her later), calls them the "Disciplined Trees" because look, they are all in line, and in a very very straight line!

Everything in China is big and wide and spacious and... you know what I mean. Anyone who goes here in Qingdao will readily notice that what differentiates Qingdao from the others is its weather which is really cold. I heard that the average annual temperature here is about 12-14 degrees celsius.

This blog intends to describe in detail what the author has experienced here in Qingdao and how his stay here has helped him to understand more about China, its people, its history, and its culture.

Well...thank you very much Mr. Dumpling (actually that is his name!), for making this blog. This is very good idea... China is too big for us to see, but it's not too difficult for to make a lot of friends here. Like a confucian said, it's a pleasure to have friends from far".
It's nice being here and have a lot friends from different countries.
