On Wednesday morning, Zhang Aiping joined hundreds of migrant workers as he began his journey home by motorcycle for a Spring Festival family reunion.
The journey of 600 kilometers from Zhaoqing, Guangdong province, to Liuzhou, in neighboring Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, was particularly difficult because of harsh weather conditions and difficulty in finding motorcycle maintenance shops.
"The first time I traveled home three years ago, I lost my way," said Zhang, 48, who has been working for a furniture company in Zhaoqing, about 100 kilometers from Guangzhou, Guangdong.
