A nap
Nobody naps quite like the Chinese—it’s less a pastime, more a finely honed national talent. While Brits might politely stifle a yawn and soldier on with another cuppa, in China, the post-lunch nap is an art form. Desks, benches, scooters—no surface is too humble. In Blighty, a public snooze might earn you a raised eyebrow; in China, it’s practically a badge of honour. Forget “power naps”—this is Olympic-level kip. So, next time you spot someone sprawled out in the office or catching forty winks on a bus, don’t tut—take notes. You’re witnessing a masterclass in the noble pursuit of daytime dozing. Frankly, it’s enough to make one rather envious.
