Hi, I’m Rain

Your Chengdu local friend.

I help English-speaking travelers settle in and feel at home in Chengdu. Airport arrivals, WeChat setup, and local days that feel human—not packaged.

Software engineer by background, photographer by instinct. I care about details, honest recommendations, and leaving enough room for a day to surprise you.
