Three Weeks in China…An Unforgettable Experience Here’s my attempt to convey my nonstop time and the impressions I gathered along with the activities I engaged in. I hope it prompts questions from you, which I would be glad to answer, or inspires you to visit China yourself. My journey was arranged through Overseas Adventure Travel (OATTRAVEL.COM); it was my first experience with them, but certainly not my last, as it was a well-organized and smoothly executed adventure. Our group consisted of twelve people: three couples (including one couple of Chinese descent) and six women, with two cousins traveling together and the other four traveling solo. We all got along very well, were punctual, and shared plenty of laughs.

We were tired and went to bed shortly after coming back to our room, but due to the twelve-hour time difference between home and China, I found myself wide awake at midnight. I got a bit more sleep, but not by much. It would take some time to acclimate.

Tucked between a government office in Beijing and a dusty construction site in Africa, a significant project is underway. Massive machines are digging, lifting, and pouring concrete as if they are forming the framework of the future. Roads extend across the landscape. Railways carve through mountains. Ports expand, resembling steel cities on the water. Everything feels significant, as if something monumental is being born.
