Liu Lingchao, 38, walks on the 209 National Road with his home made of bamboo poles and plastic sheets on shoulder, May 21, 2013. It isn’t his first time traveling with his frame house like a snail. The shelter he made five years ago for his "hiking" weighed 60 kilograms.

A few months ago, he left from Wuzhou to start his trip again with his third frame shelter. He will pass Tengxian and Yulin and arrive in Liuzhou, which is about 440 kilometers away from the starting point. Liu maintains himself by selling plastic bottles he picks up on the way.
