Abe Powell, a popular foreign teacher at Lanzhou University, has called China home for 15 years. Originally from the U.S., Powell took his first flight abroad to work in China after graduating from college, never imagining he would stay this long. Struck by Lanzhou's modernity and size, it was the warmth and generosity of its people that truly captivated him. He recalls a village visit where strangers welcomed him with their very best hospitality, a gesture that left a lasting impression. Powell believes embracing new experiences and cultures is key, urging others to look beyond media narratives and visit China to discover its true essence.
