Chapter 12: About Our First Trip
Looking back, I’ve traveled to many places, from Shandong, Hainan, Shaanxi, the Northeast, and now northwestern China. I’ve gone non-stop the whole way, and seldom had time to stop and appreciate the customs of these places.
But I’m gratified that I took a lot of photos and drew a lot of sketches along the way. Now it seems that some of them can still describe how I felt when I saw these places.
The things I helped prepare:
