Swords are a pretty universal language translator... just point and yell.
2009? Great, I'll be out of graduate school by then. I'm game, and I've already experienced hiking 20 miles a day with a full pack.One question - If we don't know Chinese how do we expect to get around? Especially if we head out into the countryside where even more remote dialects may be spoken.
