Back to China


Recently we visited China for an amazing time of reconnection with old friends. We lived in Hefei, Anhui province in the 90s. It’s not an expat or tourist city so our friendships were built with local colleagues and their families.
These are the people who helped me to learn about culture –mine and theirs.
Over three years of dinners and lunches, special celebrations and everyday life, we talked about families and work, leadership and management, parenting and children’s education, attitudes to money and saving, to health and wellbeing, to supporting family members and aged parents, governments and society, spirituality and religions.
