Photographer Adrian Fisk travelled around China and India asking young people what they think about life. The results are an insightful snapshot of the next generation’s thoughts. Over the next three weeks we’ll feature more of Adrian’s work: today’s post is about China and next week we’ll see what some young Indians have to say. Adrian plans to continue the series in 25 countries around the world.
