I'm in shock, to be honest. It's nothing like what the government or Western media portray. The people are incredibly welcoming and respectful, and the city is clean and affordable.
How does the public transportation compare to the US?
The trains are insane! Business class is only $150 for a 6-hour ride, and it's way better than a business class flight. No long security lines, just hop on and relax.
What about the food scene?
The food options are amazing and so diverse! And it's much cheaper than in America.
What was the most surprising thing you found?
Probably the $1 haircut and the fact that I didn't need a ticket to enter the Zhu-long cave!
How do you feel about the tipping culture in China compared to the US?
It's so nice not to have to tip! In America, it's almost like extortion. Here, people are genuinely friendly and helpful, without expecting a tip.
