Hey friends, we're the Changs, and you can call me Evan ( Right ). I was born and grew up in a fantastic seaside village across from Taiwan Island, home to the well-known Hui'an Woman. My father is a retired captain of fishing ship and my mother is a typical, kindhearted and industrious Hui'an woman. I have one brother and one sister, both work in the stone carving industry. You may pay a visit to http://www.flickr.com/changidea for some of their stone sculptures,and other stone products for residential, architectural and memorial applications, which export to some countries.

I have worked in Xinglin, Jimei, Xiamen, a comfortable exhibition and conference port city, as a process instrumentation maintenance technician since 1990 when I graduated from a vocational school in historic Quanzhou, the Starting Point of Ancient China Sea Silk Road, which is still the most prosperous city of the whole Fujian Province in term of private-owned economies.

From some angle, I am not a real traveler. I seek and find this wonderful world more from photographic books, Internet, television documentaries, etc.
But I can share with you what I see in the place where I live and travel.

And you are welcome to drop me a line at yaoleading@yahoo.com if you need assistance or like to find a local to talk here in Xinglin, Jimei, Xiamen ,or my hometown Dazuo, Chongwu, Hui'an, Quanzhou.
