I am an Australian who has been living in China for the past 4 years. While I studied Business and Marketing and passionately love Marketing and Design Thinking, I have somehow ended up in the Education Industry in Shanghai as a core member of a team trying to open up the minds of young learners and open up the world to them.

I Made These Comics To Compare Chinese Culture With Western Culture Through Everyday Life

I am a little frustrated by these comics. I think that some, such as the vinegar and soy sauce comic and the chopsticks are great (though in most of the cities and provinces I have lived in and visited it is vinegar and chilli oil), though others seem to be stuck a little bit in the past. While the comics where you challenge the current Western perception of what is China/Chinese (the major Chinese figures, perception of eating cats and all "Asian" food as Chinese food), I think it would be great to actually the counter point such as provincial delicacies (opposed to most people assuming Guangzhou cuisine represents all of Chinese cooking), significant figures as taught in Chinese classrooms contrasting with the Western classrooms you have experienced and etc. But then again, "我是傻老外在中国“ Good stuff, looking forward to more :)
