Welcome to my slideshow of Chinese faces: ) These were people I met on the road as I traveled around the country
My first trip away from my home base of Zhuhai was over to the nearby island: HONG KONG
Its near Zhuhai, but its another world. See my posts on Hong Kong to see why: http://newplateaus.areavoices.com/2011/05/10/hong-kong-international/ Heres what I take to be a typical, hip Hong Kong business guy

Heres whos makes up the heartland of China:
First, my fellow faces in transit from one place to the next:
