Living in China it's easy to get really close to the darkest corner of our world. It's a part of the world's truth, normally I pretend it doesn't exist. but when you see it for yourself by accident, it's just so, so sad.
So, anyone wants to see it with me?

This winter, a bunch of young volunteers went there, finding them living in...what kind of house is this?

The home is in Harbin, a city very close to Russia. And it's december now, I can't imagine how they'll cope with the cold.

Egg is the most precious nutrition.

Beautiful smile on their face. They are left to die and to be fogortten. Haven't connect with the outside for year. The volunteers visiting may be the happiest thing in these years.
The chalk writing on the wall: welcome to Harbin...Happy new year...long live the socialism...
This is too big a thing for us to question. So let's just learn not to ignore it
