These days, a Chinese girl’s travel diary has become a hit online.
Zhao Xing, with only a map, a travel bag and 30 yuan, left the Chinese mainland for the first time to Taiwan. At the airport, she was helped by a man who even told her his phone number. A bus driver was kind enough to wake her up when she fell asleep on the ride.
In Taiwan, Zhao told the man who gave her a ride that she was from Beijing. The man asked if there was anything else he could do to help make her journey better.
“After coming back and thinking over everything I’ve experienced, I realized that the people impressed me the most, not the beautiful scenes or tasty food,” Zhao wrote in her online diary.
From Beijing to Taiwan, so close, so far away. Zhao’s wish is to encourage others to realize their own dreams of making the world a smaller, more friendly place for all.
