A Sneak Peek

The scenes are just to show a small part of what it is like in China through the "eyes" of a foreigner...hence the name, "A Sneak Peek".

The video was made in February, 2015 showing what it is like in Yancheng, Jiangsu province just before and during Chinese New Year.The snow, the fireworks, crowds of people, electric bikes and the music help to bring about a sense of what it is like, and finally the "dream like leaving" to go back home.
