Summary
Heavily armed police on street corners, but also 1-yuan watermelon slices and peaceful snow-capped mountains in the distance. What’s it really like living in China's most remote and heavily controlled region? For the past month, I’ve been living in Xinjiang as a single woman. Today, I want to take you through a completely raw and honest 24 hours of my day—from eating garlic with noodles in the morning, getting a $4 street massage in the park, joining local square dances, to wandering the streets at 3 AM. Beyond what you see in the news, this is just my quiet, ordinary life here.
