The other Nanjing university campus is located in the middle of mountains and it took us a bit over an hour to get there by bus from the city centre. We were welcomed by local students and they gave us a small tour of the campus. I paired up with Brandy, a sophomore student studying business and finance or something like that. She was so ecstatic when I told her: wo lai zi he lan (I come from Holland). For some reason she adores Holland and everything about it. She said she even collects newspaper articles about Holland and of course like all people say, that she loves the Keukenhof flowers. She applied to go for a study exchange to Groningen University but that she hadn't got it because out of 400 people, only 20 got accepted.
We had lunch together in the canteen and she bought so much, all for only 10 yuan, and then we had to head off to the talent show singing performance.
The modern shiny library
The library
The accommodation buildings
Brandy lives with 3 other girls in the same room on two bunk beds which is quite tight. But better compared to the Gulou campus where there are 7 people sharing the same sized room. That is really a squeeze.
Very futuristic student activity building
