Thelma Lancaster, a retired teacher from California, embarked on her first journey to China, beginning in Beijing. Initially filled with apprehension, her visit quickly evolved into a profound exploration of culture and history. A highlight of her trip was a visit to a traditional Hutong home, where she observed the ingenuity and charm of century-old living spaces. Beijing's seamless blend of historical depth and modern vibrancy left a lasting impression. For Lancaster, the experience underscored the value of cultural exchange, reaffirming her belief that greater contact between people fosters mutual understanding and breaks down barriers.
