Woman from Taiwan makes Fujian home

Tseng Chih-ying fell in love with Meixiong village in Fujian province the first time she visited four years ago.

With rivers surrounding the village, villas with red roofs, walls painted in yellow and green trees all year, it is just what a village is supposed to look like, she thinks.

Tseng was born in Taipei, Taiwan, and graduated from Shih Hsin University there. She worked as reporter and curator before coming to Fujian in 2018.

That year, Tseng joined a competition involving rural construction among youth from across the Straits, and later decided to remain in Meixiong.
