On the train to Putian I am surrounded by a group of Chinese people speaking English, from a pharmaceutical company, going on a weekend trip to 武夷山 (Wǔ yí shān, Wuyi Mountain). The lady next to me is a manager, reading a book in English.
It is lovely to get to know her and chat with her about what she does, and share about the company I work for that makes machines used by the pharmaceutical industry.
