China Daily Website has sent me on assignment to Suzhou (and later Shandong province) on a 10-day video shoot for a series that will commemorate the upcoming 70th anniversary of China’s founding (this October). The shoot will take me to a variety of locations, many with a link to Chinese culture (one of my favorite things!).
Because of the intense schedule for this trip, I’m taking a break from blogging for the rest of this week and up until Friday August 23. I will let you know when the videos finally get published on China Daily. And in the meantime, hope you enjoy your August!


Hope you enjoy the video shoot and all the nice spots along the way, Jocelyn.
Thank you! It was an enjoyable journey!
Hope you had a good time in Suzhou! 😉
Thank you Marta! Meeting with you and your family was highlight of my time in Suzhou — still can’t believe we ended up in your very neighborhood!
