I was in China. I flew from Helsinki to Beijing, I saw everything in Beijing.
I saw the Great Wall, I flew to Shainghai and Xian, too.
My contact in China Ni Duan in Hangzhou is trying to have my fairy tales published in China.
She has translated them into Chinese.
So.
I'm in a hurry.
Now the Exclusive Selection China has to be made.

Inspired by
One day I was walking from one sightseeing to another in Beijing. A Chinese boy walked besides me. He was cutting my profile with a scissors. We did not stop - we kept walking - rather quickly. Then the Chinese boy stopped me and he showed me the cut. I was amazed. I of course bought the cut. This motif is inspired by that walk in Beijing. I still don't understand, that the boy could do my silhouette so precise, so quick - walking fast. My visit to Beijing was shortly after the events in Tiananmen Square. I was one of the fist people visiting China after these events.

In 2005, the most well known Dane in the world, author Hans Christian Andersen, would have been 200 years old.  The anniversary is being celebrated with a huge cultural year devoted to Andersen, both in Denmark and worldwide. China will feature prominently in the worldwide celebration of the bicentenary of the birth of Hans Christian Andersen in 2005. Danish Prime Minister, who was conducting an official visit to China in February 2004, appointed seven of the most prominent personalities in China within the fields of arts, sport and entertainment as Hans Christian Andersen Ambassadors, whose task will be to promote the wider awareness and appreciation of Hans Christian Andersen in China. The seven Chinese Hans Christian Andersen Ambassadors are: senior translator Lin Hua, cultural producer Wang Wen Zhang, actor Zhang Jinlai, television hostess Ju Ping,
singer Song Zuying, musician Sun Yan and athlete Yao Ming.

Inspired by
Outside the Wild Goose Pagoda in Xian I had this experience of being a foreigner.
Having another cultural background. Meeting people with another cultural background.
Jakob - my youngest son - was 10 years of age. His hear was blond. Crew cut.
I was big. With a red blond bird.
The Chinese crowded around us. Friendly. Smiling. With their bike.
They wanted to touch Jakob.
Exactly at that moment somebody told me what Chinese people
thought about our traveling in China:
"Why don't they stay home and spare the money - and buy a bike.
Or a refrigerator?"

I have put an extra store or more on the Chinese buildings
The Chinese are closer to divinity
