The subway was crowded, like any afternoon in China.
A little boy was traveling alongside his mother when a young foreigner sat right next to him. The contrast immediately caught his attention: the skin, the hair, the arms covered in hair. Something that simply wasn’t common for him to see so close up.
With the curiosity of childhood still intact, the boy slowly moved closer and touched the tourist’s arm, as if checking whether he was real. “Wooow”, the video reads as his mother lets out a knowing laugh. The young man, far from feeling uncomfortable, laughed with them and let the little boy continue exploring. A tiny moment, filmed in a subway car, that ended up showing how simple wonder can be when you still don’t know about borders.
