07/29/23 • 27 min

It's a full day on the other side of the world and the morning begins with a beautiful exchange. We finally get cell service working, figure out how to pay for lunch (but can't get change back), head to the cinema, and end the day with a surprising musical situation.

Forty One Hours

Standing before three immigration officers, I realize, through a thick layer of sleep deprivation, that I don't have the items these men are asking for. I've traveled half way around the world and now it's possible I won't be able to enter the country of China.

Thank you for checking out "An American in China" - a westerner's guide to post-Covid travel in the far east. In this episode, we will cover important tips as you prepare to enter the country including a pre-immigration digital requirement and other forms that you will be asked for upon arrival. Sleep is also important. Thank you for listening, following, subscribing. All the things!

Peggy (as she is known to friends) sits down with me for our first interview on the podcast and I hope you enjoy the conversation like a good hot pot party.
