    I read this selfhelp book and the tip it gave to me is that when you really want to do something that seems out of reach, mark a date. doesn't matter when that date is, just be realistic and be ready to work hard for it. And last year I made my first, but short backpacking trip which lasted 5 weeks, but it won't be my last.

I am amazed at the infrastructure improvements that I see in your video and photos. China has changed so, so much and so quickly (30+ years is quickly, believe me)!
