Pamela Tobey is an artist from the United States who worked as a visual designer for The Washington Post before coming to China. The Spring Festival this year means something different to her. The lunar year 2019 is her animal year. She turns 60 years old. She spent the Spring Festival in Beijing for the first time. With many questions and with the aesthetic vision as a designer, she completed shopping for the Spring Festival first time in her life. She has made many Chinese friends, blended in with Chinese culture and life, deeply understood the differences between China and the United States, and realized the misunderstandings brought about by the differences. She hopes that when she returns to US, she will take away the wisdom she has learned from many Chinese people.
