My China dream: Brian Linden on 42 years that changed his life

CGTN2 hours ago0:48

In 1984, 22-year-old American student Brian Linden came to China on a scholarship, looking for a new direction in life. More than four decades later, China has become his home. He settled in Dali, restored historical buildings in rural Yunnan, and built the Linden Centre into a platform for cultural exchange. Brian describes his journey as a "China dream" — a life shaped by a country that once took a chance on him. On Hello from the Other Shore, he reflects on his life in China and what it has taught him about cultural understanding and connection between people in China and the United States.
