During China's National Week, we went to Gongyu. Gongyu is located 6 hours South of Shanghai, and you have to hike two hours to get to the village! It was an amazing and unique experience, that we didn't know China would give us!

While we teach English during the week, we use our holidays and weekends to explore the different wonders of China.

Once the borders open, we'll continue our adventures exploring the rest of the world. Until then, let's explore China together.
