Hello Martin, long time no see. I heard you went to France to study, how was that?
I was only there for a year, then I took a year off to travel around Europe.
Where did you go?
I went to Switzerland first and then Germany in Austria. I was planning to end my trip in Italy, but it didn't work out.
Oh well, is it good to be back?
Of course, but I'm returning to France to finish my degree. It's a four-year program.
Oh, so you're just back to Beijing to visit your family?
Yeah, I'm here for another 2 months.
Any plans?
In July, my mother is turning 70, so we'll do something special for her. Next month we're going to drive to the coast, then I will be back to France before September first.
Good for you, do you think you could fit me into your busy schedule?
Ha, I can always make time for my friends, how about tonight?
