Pan Wenwen is no ordinary toddler. While most kids her age are in kindergarten, Wenwen has already backpacked halfway across of China with her parents.
Wenwen was just one year and three months old when her parents packed their bags and left their home in Shangrao, China, to embark on a long backpacking journey.

In the beginning, Wenwen would walk part of it and needed to be carried the rest of the way.

While on the road, Wenwen leads a simple life with her parents, sustaining on a diet of wild herbs and sleeping in tents.

However, Wenwen's parents maintain that their travels have made their daughter stronger and more independent than girls her age living in the big city.
