CHINA
Country Overview:
"A land of contrasts, where ancient traditions meet rapid modernization, and delectable cuisine coexists with complex political realities."
My seven-year journey in China, from May 2013 to August 2020, was a whirlwind of experiences. I taught English, pursued my Master's in Politics & Foreign Policy at the prestigious Tsinghua University, and immersed myself in the media landscape at China Today and Xinhua News Agency. Beijing was my home base, but my travels painted a vibrant tapestry of China's diverse landscapes and cultures: the bustling metropolis of Shanghai, the historic city of Xi'an, the tropical paradise of Sanya, the unique blend of East and West in Macau and Hong Kong, and countless other destinations in between. From savoring the exquisite flavors of regional cuisines to navigating the intricacies of daily life under a distinct political system, China left an indelible mark on me.
Back in Beijing
It's nice to be able to order food online, and finding grilled chicken, mashed sweet potatoes, and fresh veggies is always nice compared to some typically 'oily' Chinese dishes
Mobike Invasion
I get it Mobike, as a public bike service, you're trying to make a name for yourself and get yourself out to the public. This, however, seems a bit excessive
Korean Night
Some of the best Korean food I've had here in Beijing. Korean characters say "We are fucking young"
