My 17-Hour Flight

After being in the MCAD MFA program, I wanted to move my focus to comics. At the time, I couldn't think of a good story to tell, so I decided to share my own. This is the story of my journey from a China still under pandemic lockdown to Minneapolis. It includes the excitement and loneliness of traveling alone, the confusion and helplessness of navigating an unfamiliar language and culture, and the exhaustion and relief upon finally arriving. I hope this story resonates with the universal emotions associated with travel.
