Going back home: A standing journey (3)

Pu Dagang (above) and his fellow huddle in a corner of the carriage, Jan. 17, 2013. Before reaching home, Pu had to stay on the overcrowded train for more than 30 hours and then travel by coach for another five hours. Although he had to stand almost all the way, Pu felt lucky enough. “It’s better than being far away from home,” Pu said. (Photo/Xinhua)
