Right after one day in Xiamen, I spent one day in Hangzhou and thought it was the perfect amount of time. Hangzhou is a city that is rapidly developing and there is a lot of construction. At the time of writing, they were building a brand new airport and honestly it seemed like 10,000 new […]

China is taking over the world. That is a sentiment often uttered in jest but there is a lot of truth behind that statement.
