Our travel journal is available on our travel journal, written day by day. You’ll find lots of photos and some travel tips there.

Hello, Your travel journal is gorgeous! The layout is fantastic, the different stops are really well documented, and the illustrations are truly beautiful. Great job! I think you haven’t gotten any feedback because you only posted a link on VF. That probably discourages forum users. China is definitely worth a month-long stay. Like you, I loved Fenghuang. It’s changed so much when I look at your photos... Hunan is a province that’s really worth the detour. And I just found out with horror that you now have to book your visit to Tian’anmen Square...

Thanks so much for your feedback! 😊🏼
