China

I've always wanted to travel around the world. Europe, South America, Southeast Asia, etc, but I'd never considered China, until last year... One day I found a documentary about a small village in China in the middle of the forest that wasn’t an ordinary town… The population was made by GIANT DOLLS! This immediately called my attention, and after some searching I realized I’d love to travel to China. I also watched a film called "Kaili Blues" (which I liked a lot), located in two villages in that huge country, and they were so beautiful, that my desire to travel there increased a plenty.

"Kaili Blues"



China is the most populous country in the world! But I’d like to visit China’s rural zones, not the big cities, with a camera, for a long time, looking for different kind of stories like this one. I’d love to learn about the ancient culture and tales from the past, mixed with the current condition of China, from the point of view of small families away from the cities.



My father once travelled to China, and since I was little he has told me a bunch of surreal anecdotes he experienced when he was there. That culture is so different from ours, that I'd love to go there, understand absolutely nothing, and live weird and untypical adventures, taste rare types of food, explore the great diversity of beautiful landscapes and get to know the different traditions, stories, and the flora and fauna of the most hidden parts of the country.

  4. Hi Cata!
    You know what??!! Some years ago I read a book about China, the name was "Wild Swans". It was about 3 women living in 3 different momments in chinese history, and they were living hell. The first one had 3 inches feet because her parents told her so (and also her entire culture), the second one lived the japanese invasion and haded to run like crazy all over the country (that's a lot) and the last one just run to london and wrote the book. It was an amazing book because I learned a lot about chinese history, and also about the japanese (like they are crazy psycopaths in war).
    I think I also want to go to China, but I don't want a three inches feet, and you should think about it as well.

    Nice post!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxox
