August 26, 2019, in Haikou, Hainan, China — well before the coronavirus outbreak!
ON the day after a conference I had attended ended, I had lunch with a Canadian who is teaching in the Arizona State University tourism program housed at Hainan University in Haikou, China. So, she works for ASU but lives and teaches full time in China.
After lunch, she took me on the back of her electric motorbike to a shopping mall across the river from where I was staying because she (and I) wanted to go to the grocery store there. She also kind of pointed toward the location of “night market” near her university.
Later, I decided to walk to the night market for dinner. Crossing the big road and then the river was quite an adventure because of the throng of motorbikes at this time of day (after work) sharing the same pathway that pedestrians use.
