小龙宝宝

Hello! I'm Melinda, a current student at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, studying abroad in Beijing at Tsinghua University. I'm blogging about my semester here in China! The name of the blog is a play on words: a favorite Chinese dish of mine is the soup dumpling, 小笼包 (xiao long bao). The 2nd character is a homonym of dragon 🐲, 龙. The 3rd character sounds similar to 宝, which was my nickname as a child 👶  (宝宝). So I guess I'm saying I'm a "small dragon baby." 🤔️

 

I hope you'll follow me on my experiences abroad. :) Thank you!
