I finished classes around the second week of January and had a few free days before I started traveling. My wonderful Peace Corps sitemate Kyle, who had to leave China early, came to visit for the day to say goodbye and we discovered a great new hike. For the past year I had been going on walks in the countryside, wandering aimlessly trying to find a route that would go down to Dengguan and then loop back to my school through the farms. We finally found it!
