Rural northeast China is beautiful this time of year!

My parents loved exploring the countryside outside Fuxin today, and honestly, I wasn't surprised.

They've always preferred places like this over big cities. While modern life seems to be getting faster and more complicated, people in rural communities often feel more connected—to nature, to their neighbours, and to what really matters.

It actually reminded them a lot of the countryside back home in Scotland.

As someone who grew up in rural Wales, I completely understand the appeal. The scenery may be different, but the feeling is remarkably similar. There's a warmth, simplicity, and authenticity to places like this that can be hard to find elsewhere.

The older I get, the easier it is to imagine retiring somewhere just like this.
