Wow, interesting.

What are some of the more interesting rites of passage young Maasai warriors would normally go through?

That's the most surprising and heartwarming answer to this question I could imagine.

Good question, I live in China and often hear other foreigners say they 'know' Chinese but when I hear them speak it's really at a basic level.

How's it going?

Been in Beijing 9 years now. Still suck at Mandarin but life is great.

Yes, absolutely.

'Oh I like speaking English but am not good at it. My vocabulary is weak'.

I think that's amazing from someone who has never left China. And then you ask 'Why?' and they give reasons.
