Wall Street Journal: An Expat Has Time to Reflect Now That the Party’s Over

Remember that time I was detained by the Chinese police during a drug raid at a rave? My experience being rounded up by the Chinese police at the big Shenzhen drug raid.

I happened to write a piece about it for the Wall Street Journal’s expat blog. It took a while to get edited and published, but it is finally available and I’d like to share. (Also, don’t forget the last time I published with the WSJ)

Please take the time to read. It was a tumultuous time, some harsh memories, but I’m glad that something positive came out of it for me at least… Well, live and learn.

  1. I shall forward this cautionary tale to my daughter, who is currently on an internship in Beijing, and likely to be be staying on to accept a more permanent role at the company. A lot of her social life revolves around clubbing – she even does a bit of DJ-ing herself – so I suspect your experience will be of interest to her!
