Right before I came to China a good friend of mine told me there are two places in the world that will change your life forever - one is South Africa and the other is China. I can't vouch for SA but China… absolutely. It's an incredible country that is full of surprises. It is intense, relaxing, and freeing.
I am so thankful for Brad and Xian, who have made me feel so welcome in their home, and who even encouraged me to extend my stay. I truly hope to be back some day!
With only one day left, this may well be my final post, so I will sign off with a small mix of photos.
Thanks for reading!
safe travels,
Helena

| A real meat market. |
 |
| My idea of heaven… piles and piles of veggies. |
 |
| Xian buying clams for part of a delicious feast she cooked up that day. (Yes, I admit, I am spoiled here.) |
 |
| Birds at the market. |
 |
| And one bird that has had enough. |
