Welcome to Chinese Migrant Worker. I will be posting here as often as I have access to the internet about what I am doing in China this summer. What am I doing? For 4 weeks, I will be a program assistant on a UNC study abroad trip examining the impact of globalization on urban China. We will visit Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Xian, and Shanghai.


After that, I will spend another month in Beijing doing transportation research at Tsinghua University. This blog will hopefully have lots of photos of the things I see, and my notes and commentary on the ever-transforming urban China.
