Entry: Food for Thought

In this weekend, I read an article named"Food for Thought". The author point out that people can tell different characters from their cuisine, and the food of the country can reflect it's history and future.

From my view point, in general, I agree with the author's point. There is a queation in the reading really interesting, that is "Can food explain how countries interact?". The author argue that food represents a deeper political history. That's true. Food can be influenced by each other. When I came to Canada, there are so many Chinese restaurants, because a lot of immigrators are Chinese.

I have been to the US for one month. I found that America has lots of Chinese restaurants. Unfortunately, most of them are different from Chinese restaurants in China. In other words, the Chinese restautants in here are fake. I hope the Chinese restaurants in America will be more delicious some day!hoho~~~

something about myself

I'm Renay, a student in University of Minnesota. I'm from Beijing, China. It's my first time to open an English blog~haha~~

I'm a 19-year-old girl. My favorite thing is sleeping...If nobody wake me up or no alarm clock, I can deep sleeping more than 15 hours. Besides sleeping, I like to travel. Even though I am only 19 years old, I have been to many places including USA, Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore, and South Korea. For instance, I joined a summer camp in Vancouver, Canada in 2005. I benefited a lot from daily interactions with people there. The difference in ideas and views I was exposed to truly fascinated me. Such traveling and living abroad experiences have broadened my view and expanded my horizon. More importantly, it will make me ready to adjust myself to different culture and environment.
