About Me

My name is Caizhang Chen. I am Chinese. I lived and worked in France for a many years. So I am from France. But originally I am from Wenzhou, China. Wenzhou is midiium-sized city in Zhe Jiang Province. Wenzhou is best-known in China for its rapid growth of economy. Successful businessmen and businesswomen can now been found almost at every corner of the world. Most of the biggest Chinese grocery supermarkets in New York City are owned by Wenzhou people. I am proud of my home town. I am proud of my home country.

If Wenzhou is my hometown, Paris is my second hometown because I lived in Paris for ma years. Paris is a great city and I really love the city. Every time I see Effel Tower in the movie or on TV, I would miss the city, miss the time I spent there.

I came to American on January 16, 2006 and have been in the U.S. for almost two years. To me, coming to American means the beginning of a new life. I am excited about it and hope my American dream will come true.

I am studying English and computer. I take ESL classes on Monday and Wednesday, and computer on Friday. My teacher is Ke Xu. He is also from China. I enjoy taking his classes, both ESL and computer. I like to chat with my classmates, share our expereince working and living in America, in New York City in particular. School is a good place to meet different people and make new friends.

Welcome, I hope you have joy and happiness in America? I understand that people in France work only 35 hours a week -- is this a myth?

Enjoy reading "About Me."

Hi Caizhang,

I'm curious to know -- what
is the current Chinese population in France? What type of work do Chinese people do?

And how are the living conditions? Is renting an apartment very expensive? How do people get from point-to-point? Is it by underground transportation or by bus, or taxi?

What is the current exchange rate to the US dollar? I guess after all living expenses that it is difficult to save any extra money?
