Pan Wenwen is no ordinary toddler. While most kids her age are in kindergarten, Wenwen has already backpacked halfway across of China with her parents.

In the beginning, Wenwen would walk part of it and needed to be carried the rest of the way.

While on the road, Wenwen leads a simple life with her parents, sustaining on a diet of wild herbs and sleeping in tents.

However, Wenwen's parents maintain that their travels have made their daughter stronger and more independent than girls her age living in the big city.
