17 June 2009.

Zhang Shuo (a.k.a. Bobby) comes over asking to meet with his “foreign friend”. Oh! Could our little experiments in “cultural exchange” be working? HomeShop arranges a second live web chat between Mr. Bobby in Beijing and Fotini at our Berlin end of things. After playing the naming game again (“香蕉 banana”, “酱油 soy sauce”, “iPod”, and a few things that we didn’t know how to say), Bobby——feeling more and more comfortable with his new friends——decides that he’s had enough of “cultural exchange” and simply decides to play exhibitionist instead. “Take my picture!”

“Again!“
