Hey Adam, It’s been a half year ago we joined 3 days, 3 countries and few km together (and We’re still very glad for these moments… We were honoured). Suzie and I still check your blog and all the breathtaking photos. It’s amazing. We’re holding our thumbs for You!
Adam, do you remember me?Yesterday you came to Sinopec to buy something . I want to communicate with you, but my English is poor, you are so friendly and patiently listening to me,I am very pleased to know you,very excited. If my English fluently I will go to London,eating delicious food, watching the beautiful scenery, know more friends,this is my long time dream.
