‘Romantic, isn’t it?’: woman in China quits sales job to earn living drawing messages of love on sandy beaches for other people
- A woman in southern China left her sales job to draw positive messages in the sand for people as a living
- She started in her spare time but soon received so many bookings she made it her full-time job
A woman in China who quit her job in sales to draw messages for others on sandy beaches for a living has trended on mainland social media.
The mother of twins, surnamed Feng, decided to take the plunge into a new “career” after she saw someone else leaving a sandy missive and took inspiration.
Also, given that she is from the tourist area of Sanya in Hainan province, southern China, there are plenty of stretches of sand for her to ply her new trade, Bailu Video reported.
Feng said the unusual job brings her a respectable living.
She began her drawing journey in her spare time, and after posting her works, was not sure if it would pan out. However, she was surprised to receive a booking within a week of doing so.
In a video, Feng can be seen crouching down in the blazing sun, using a slender branch to draw a ship in the sand.
