6 is a new blog written from Beijing. Its focus is what young Chinese are thinking, talking and frittering away their time on. Certain reoccurring characters may emerge in a narrative. This is a soft focus, with plenty else creeping in at the sides.
6 is Alec Ash. I grew up, studied and worked in Oxford before moving here, on the logic that it was far enough away. I’m learning Mandarin at Peking University, and have been blogging since the end of the Olympics in the summer of 2008.
A big thank you to my brother Tom for his technical help in setting up this blog. Check out his own site PhilosoFiles: a collection of philosophical essays.
