Where the things I’ve kept quiet can finally breathe.

Some people learn situational awareness from books, workshops, or military training.

Mine came from childhood accidents, close calls, & the kind of rural life where danger hides in ordinary places...

[Authenticrypt 🇵🇭🇨🇳 @authenticrypt]

I’ve lived almost my entire life in solitude, not out of dislike for people, but because solitude is where I feel most awake and engaged.

Give me quiet, and I thrive.

I’ve lived here for 8 years, married a mainlander, & now have children, but the only words I can say are “nihao” and “xie xie.”

I was already curious about china when i was around 7. Now, im here.

[Authenticrypt 🇵🇭🇨🇳 @authenticrypt]

What i like about China: It’s safe at night, great food is cheap, and people just focus on getting things done.

And they get it done now.

A peaceful moment in the busy city of Wuhan.

[Authenticrypt 🇵🇭🇨🇳 @authenticrypt]

Ancient gate, tiled roof, centuries of history & one scooter zooming through like it’s Tuesday.

China’s past and present in one frame.

[Authenticrypt 🇵🇭🇨🇳 @authenticrypt]

The kind of silence that makes you notice everything.

[Authenticrypt 🇵🇭🇨🇳 @authenticrypt]

In China, even the watermelons smile at you.

[Authenticrypt 🇵🇭🇨🇳 @authenticrypt]

Me in red laces, guarding the ancient gate with nothing but sneakers

Diplomatic Duck.

A duck-shaped tableware set gifted from the USSR to China.

Standing by the Yangtze River, watching the bridge stretch across the water like a giant thread connecting two worlds.

The Yangtze is huge, calm, & full of history. Being here reminds me how far I’ve come & how much I’m still learning every day.
