Family makes summer journey by tractor

chinadaily.com.cn | Updated: 2018-08-20

The tractor pulled a caravan with a living space of about 10 square meters, with three windows, one door and a double bed. Two maps were hung in the walls of the caravan, which also included pots and pans, daily necessities and repair tools.

The daughters took charge of cooking. They bought vegetables in local markets accompanied by their father. 

The family usually ate vegetables and noodles, though they dined at a restaurant every week.

Traveling on a tractor didn't feel so comfortable because it was hot in the south. They parked the vehicle under trees or bridges during the daytime and drove at night.

On Aug 9, they arrived home after crossing seven provinces: Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Hubei, Henan and Hebei.

The journey cost them more than 6,000 yuan.

Liu said his daughters have become more independent and learned many things during the trip.
