China

Traveling through China reshaped how I experienced distance and scale. Cities moved fast, yet small moments — shared meals, early mornings, and quiet observations — stayed with me the longest. This page gathers the days as they unfolded, without rushing to summarize them.

I Went to China Alone (First Time)—Here’s What Really Happened

Shanghai - that's where I went. No real plan, no travel buddy, just a quiet urge to disappear somewhere unfamiliar. But if I’m honest, I was scared. Scared of the language barrier, scared of getting lost. But somehow fear became the very reason I booked that flight to Shanghai. I wanted to see whether I could exist in a city where I couldn’t rely on language, familiarity, or anyone else. I wanted to test how far curiosity can take me when my comfort zone is thousands of miles
