Topic: news What’s in a Name? Foreigners in China with a Chinese Name

It's a very good article. Something that I have experienced by myself too all my childhood. I was born and raised in a Latin America, people there seem so close-minded. All my childhood I was so embarrassed of all the chinese stuff my family does, mostly because i didnt't know how explain the why/what they were doing, but I was also embarrased to hangout with local chinese communities because first I didn't grow up near this chinese community; and last because I never learned Cantonese, I only learnt chinese(mandarin) 3 years ago when I first came to China. But now I'm like you, I feel proud of being who I'm, bringing the best of both countries. BTW not only chinese people are like this, also the Foreigners. My girlfriend is a chinese born in France and when she hangs out with her friends whenever her friend's friends come over they say hi to everybody except her, I mean they don't have do the European double-cheek kiss, but at least they should say hello. The only perk I love using if when Spanish talking people are talking shit of everybody else I suddenly say Hola!
