Welcome to my travelogue! This site is designed to help me record my journey to Shanghai and, hopefully, all the adventures I'll have when I get there.
I am 18 years old and about to embark on my Gap year. I live just outside Perth in a village called Bridge of Earn and work as a Lifeguard at Perth Leisure Pool. In Sept '05 I am moving down to Norwich to study Meteorology and Oceanography at the University of East Anglia.

About Sophie

Shanghai

My fellow volunteers, Fi, Sarah, Kim and I will leave from Glasgow on the 30th of August to fly to Shanghai, China ...... our home for the next 6 months. We will be teaching English at the Kong Jiang Er Cun School in Shanghai to children ranging from 5-17 years old.
Find out how I'm getting on by clicking on Recent Posts (or Archives for older entries) and you can write back to me by clicking on Comments.
I'll look forward to hearing from you!
