Librarie Avant-Garde is one of my favorite places in Nanjing. It's a bookstore built in a former parking garage. I feel so peaceful there! You can order coffee, sit and read, or buy souvenirs. The atmosphere is simply perfect. (Closed Captioned) The Backdrop: We spent May-July in China (eight weeks in total). For the first month, I co-led a study abroad trip that brought sixteen college students to the Nanjing University of Science and Technology to study beginning Chinese. I also co-taught a Travel Writing class. As part of that trip, we went to Beijing, Nanjing, Suzhou, Shanghai, Yellow Mountain, and Slender West Lake. Once the students left for home, my husband Jesse and I traveled around China for a few more weeks. Our travels brought us to Xi'An, Chengdu, Leshan, Jiuzhaigou, Yangshuo, and Hong Kong. It was a life-changing adventure! Connect with me! Twitter: https://twitter.com/Erin_Travels Blog: http://erinstravels.com Pinterest: http://www.pinterest.com/erin_travels
