Like an Egg in a Bowl of Cherries is partly a travel memoir, and partly an illustration of the transformative power that culturally immersive experiences can have on expanding cultural humility and facilitating healthy identity development. Drawing from hand-written journal entries and emails sent home while living and working for a year in Dalian, China (2002-2003), readers are taken on an entertaining ride filled with humor, sarcasm, and irreverence. With topics ranging from the challenges and rewards of teaching in China, to dog restaurants, wet-markets, and the SARS Pandemic, the stories within this book will expose readers to a world of interconnections, surprising parallels, contrasts, similarities, and at times, profound realizations. -The author, Dr. Travis Sky Ingersoll, is a social work professor with a decade of experience providing anti-racist/anti-bigotry education.
