Hey ho Not easy to answer. The pure size and diversity created a big fascination. When I lived in Beijing I got a very warm welcome from my colleagues and I found friends all over China. I was always interested in traditional things, such as arts, language, behaviour and so on. And I always got positive feedback for my wish to watch "behind" the things; not only being a foreigner and a tourist. I loved to make jiaozi with the families I visited and play cards or even try to play erhu. Actually it is everything - too much to tell in a short message.
Since I am from Berlin and Change was always a part of my live, I can feel a similar vibe in China, with all it positive and negative aspects. Hope this gives you an impression ^_^

Thank you very very much. You are pretty brave to offer me such things ^^ And I would be very brave to use this offer, I think China is very different to Germany, but of course, we can do some "cultural exchange"

Since you are 北京人 you can easily explain this one to me right?

北京人 like to speak dialect. This is the reason that you often see the word "儿". We call it, 儿话音.
