After the website was built, I asked He Nana if she had an online store for her wool handicrafts so I could introduce it and link it. She gave me an online store called "Hewu". By the way, she just renovated a few rooms and planned to use them as a B&B, but she had no experience and didn't know where to sell the rooms. I said: It's best to put it here.

As mentioned before, after Airbnb withdrew from China, unique accommodations were often lost in the vast sea of ​​listings on other domestic booking websites. Several friends who used to run good Airbnb businesses have quit the industry and no longer run their homes as B&Bs: if the guests are not suitable, they feel that it is meaningless.

I first met He Nana about ten years ago. She often came to the "Midnight Diner" for dinner. She was a pretty girl. Xiaochun and I didn't know her name. Because she had a canine tooth, we always called her "Little Canine Tooth". Many years have passed. A few months ago, because of an article "He Nana's solo exhibition "The Slightest Surge"

After an interview with Bo Qunfa the day before yesterday, I realized that she is actually a special artist!

In the past two years, Nana's handmade works have been exhibited at the Louvre Museum Contemporary Art Fair in Paris, the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, the Singapore International Art Fair, and the Mannheim Contemporary Art Fair in Germany. Although I don't understand this industry, it looks pretty impressive:)

He Nana also lives in this courtyard. She said:

"Then, all of us who stay here will have an art experience of "painting in the yard together". The paintings can be taken away or left hanging in the room where we are staying. "

"I want every room to be filled with works by the people who stay here"

"Then our room basically doesn't have too many services. It's the idea of ​​'living in the guest room of an art studio'. This big family needs everyone to maintain it together, because I also want to live and create in this house. This is very important. I don't want to turn it into a B&B by myself, it's too tiring."

“Because there are many works displayed in the rooms and public spaces, children cannot be accommodated for the time being.”

I think that when staying in a place like this, because it is not a regular B&B and the cost is not low, you need to understand the owner and the space better in order to make a suitable choice.

Regarding Art Space and He Nana, I found an interview. I hope you can learn more about her from here. She is a dedicated and serious artist, but also a casual and innocent girl:
