What does Chinese New Year really look like through foreign eyes?
In this episode, we invite our MBA classmate Cameron from Canada, who has spent more than 10 years living in China with his wife, to share his observations of the biggest holiday in the Chinese calendar.
From endless family dinners and red envelopes to fireworks, drone shows, and the famous Spring Festival Gala, Cameron reflects on the traditions that surprised him most—and the ones he has grown to love.
Even after a decade in China, he still gets asked one classic question every year:
“Do you feel homesick?”
Together, we explore how Chinese New Year feels from the inside and from the outside—and how the festival itself may be changing for younger generations.
