We stayed in Pearl River for a few weeks with an awesome host. Owner of the Fig Art Studio and an inspiring artist. We received our electric bikes and spent time riding them, enjoying the outdoors, nightly fires, and going to take-out bars. Did you know bamboo makes loud explosion noises when put into a fire? We enjoyed our stay in Pearl River and look forward to coming back to the area. Winnie got brave (all the green and trees reminded her of home) and ran out the door but was quickly terrified when salamanders were running under her toes. She even tried to climb a tree which she didn’t know how to do.
