Hello! My real name is Xinzhe Xia, I see you from my THINK ®️book, and I was very very very very very surprised of
your fantastic travels. I hope to become a “travel hobo”if I
can. (something you might don’t know, It was built in many
dynasty!)

Yes, and yes! But the Great Wall is pretty spectacular.

I have heard of that, but even in 2011 it was bad. I hear it’s worse now. Being able to look at the sun without squinting, that’s scary. Imagine what that does to a set of lungs for those who live there!

The great wall of china, the only manmade structure that we can see from outer space with the naked eye!

It’s almost impossible to find (literally down an alleyway), which only added to its charm. Sorry – no website and no real way to market it. A truly local experience!

@despina – Glad you liked the video! I had a good cry on top of the Great Wall, before I decided that it might be a moment worth sharing! 🙂

Take care and speak soon
