LIFESTYLE
Jordon
Shinn, 28, US
In a local public park, groups
of middle-aged Chinese women dance in rows in loud music. Next to the big lake,
some people are playing different instruments, like guitar, violin and erhu. Two
women sing along to the music in Cantonese(粤语).
At that time, I feel like I am
in a public park in China.
FOOD
Murray
Wenzel, 29, Australia
Almost every big city in Australia
has a Chinatown. Chinatown in Brisbane is full of restaurants, just like Beijing.
But the food is quite different from "real" Chinese meals.
Both of fortune cookies and prawn
crackers (薯片) are in every Chinatown restaurant. But I seldom saw them in Beijing.
BUILDING
Hani
N. Khan. 26. Singapore
When you walk into Singapore, you
can see different signs (招牌) in Chinese everywhere. Three-floor houses stand along the streets.
They are like the qilou buildings found in Guangdong and Fujian provinces. In
the past, homeowners would live on the upper floors. They would run a small
shop on the ground floor.
