Danny, what would we do without you?

Danny is a student at Spring Arbor University in Michigan (where Chip & Mallary used to live and work), but he is a native of Beijing and home for the summer.  Danny was an ESL student of Chip's when he first came to America.  Two years after living and studying in the states, his English is fantastic.

Today Danny said, "You helped me when I came to America, now I am helping you in China."  And boy did he ever!  He helped us get cell phones and SIM cards.  He helped me figure out how to order vegetarian dishes. He also came with us to Wu-Mart, and translated product boxes so I would know what I was buying.  And he showed us a great whole-sale clothing market.  We are so grateful for his help!

  1. Wu Mart! You're going to have to let me know about this whole-sale clothing market. I think I've heard rumors of it before.
