China Trip 2016: Part 2 of 3: The Sights

Fiya’s trip to China: A tale of two extremes.

I get confused by many things in this world. My top three are currently…

  1. Politics (specifically the 2016 election)…
  2. Female emotions and…
  3. How the Kardashians rose to fame.

Then I went to China. Believe me when I say, China is by far the most confusing!

I am Chinese. Full, 100%, purebred Chinese…but I was born and raised in America. I know how to speak Cantonese (on a very basic level) but I don’t know how to read Chinese (which turns out to be a very valuable skill while in China). Aside from the obvious inability to communicate, what threw me off the most was how this trip was pulled in to two extremes. Here is what I noticed.
