Unscripted moments from recent journeys — each one planned by the designer named below.
"We reached Mutianyu before the tour buses did. For twenty minutes it was just us, the watchtowers and the wind. Chen Yu knew exactly when to move — and when to stop."
"Day one: we made our own biangbiang noodles in the Muslim Quarter. Day two: the Terracotta Army. Li Na said the noodles come first — she was right."
"I had three days between flights. Wang Fang built the whole plan around my departure time — and still got me back to PVG with two hours to spare."
Visa-free entry, mobile payments that work for foreigners, and high-speed rail everywhere. All you need is a plan — that's our job.
