Tom Carter ~ Travel China Expert

Expertise

I am an American photojournalist and travel correspondent based in Beijing and have traveled extensively to all 33 provinces in China. I specialize in budget travel and have a personal affection for remote villages, ethnic minority culture and uncharted locales. I am also the author of CHINA: Portrait of a People, the most comprehensive collection of imagery of contemporary China ever published by a single author.

Experience

Experience:
In 2006, photojournalist Tom Carter embarked on a historic, 2-year journey that would take him throughout the 33 provinces of China, making him one of the first foreigners in China’s 5,000 year history to do so. From the Yellow Sea to the Himalayas, Tom traversed 56,000 kilometers and visited well over 200 cities and villages in a determination to understand, and thoroughly record, life and humanity in today’s People’s Republic of China.
