Xuan Gong and her roommate Liuru hosted me during the final stage of my summer stay in China. They are excellent hosts, friendly and positive people, I'm so grateful for all the help and advice they gave me! I had a lot of fun in their company, we were discussing many things and also cooking together. Moreover, they very kindly helped me to get orientated while choosing the right food for my way back home:-) Shortly, I spend a great time as their guest. P.S. Thank you for the beautiful map of the Summer Palace in Beijing, it has been hanging on a distinguished place in my room ever since!:-)
