Hi Kelly,
My name is Susie and I would like to submit a guest post for your site. I’m a travel blogger from Colorado but I’m currently living and traveling in China. This is my second time living in China, the first time being when I was a Peace Corps volunteer living in Chongqing. I feel I have a lot of insight into traveling in China as a past and present resident of the country. My blog is [link], and I’ve written some posts on the subject of China that can be found [here] and [here].
My proposed topic is “A Guide to Visiting China,” which will focus on visiting places less traveled in China, including places like Wulong, Zigong, and Chongqing City. I’ll explain how to get around, some of the best dishes, helpful apps to use, where to stay, and even common words to use when getting around. I would like to inspire people to visit places in China other than Beijing, Hong Kong, and Shanghai.
Here are links to some of my recent writing on China travel so you can see some of my work.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Susie
