As you may or may not know, fellow intern and blogger, Jenna has been in China since the beginning of July. Jenna went along with 34 other Emerson College students to work side-by-side with professional staff to cover Olympic events, to provide background information to the media on athletes and competitions and to create materials for the international press.

Jenna has been very busy, but did find time to update us on what she has been up to so far while in China. Here’s what she’s done (sounds awesome!):

1. Visited the Forbidden City
2. Visited Tiananmen Square
3. Climbed the Great Wall
4. Eaten at the most famous Peking Duck restaurant in Beijing
5. Walked around the Ming Tombs and the Summer Palace
6. Seen a Beijing Opera
7. Blogged for Emerson, for her hometown newspaper, and for the Tampa Tribune
8. Found some awesome coffee shops in Beijing that totally put Starbucks to shame.

She starts working full-time this week, working two 12-hour days in a row, then having one off, and then two on again until the end of August.

Jenna is missed here at Experience, but we are all very excited and happy for her to be in Beijing!
