I have just turned 21 years old. I am alone. I don't know a word of Chinese. I have $400 in travelers cheques, securely hidden along with my passport in the zippered cloth belt strapped around my waist.All my belongings are in a small backpack.Once I cross the border into China, I step under the radar and venture off the beaten path. Over the course of two months I will travel thousands of miles through an enchanting land.
