I went to China my first time and boy oh boy was it ever a learning experience. It’s an amazing place to go get inspired. Finding textiles and going to trade shows opens your eyes to new ideas. The best part was probably going to factories and seeing how product is produced. Shanghai is like the New York of Asia! Bright lights and bling bling everywhere $$
