Speaking in front:


This B & B carries the story of interactions between different people, precipitates the encounter and circulation of different objects, also conveys the blending and respect of different life choices, and presents the explosion and flash of inspiration in different states.

Walking into this B & B is different from going to other places. The atmosphere and design of the B & B make me feel like I have returned to the days when I lived in the United States. It is a small house in the countryside, where man and nature live in harmony. It is a 10-minute walk to the lake dock.

It also reminds me of driving myself on Highway 66. Driving a car on the road, with the microwave lake view on the left. My vision was very open and my heart was very relaxed. It seemed that I could forget all my troubles in that moment.




In fact, there have been many changes for me from last year to this year. I have brought a lot of thoughts about my identity and work. The pace of life has been adjusted twice as fast as before. The high-speed life and work have made me busy every day, and I have no time to chat, flip through the circle of friends, or think about boring things. I seem to have forgotten why I started, and I don't seem to know why I am continuing. The two-day and one-night stay at a B & B made me understand a lot of things. Maybe if I had made another choice a week ago and went to another city or stayed at another B & B, I might not have this experience and feeling. This is the unique feature of Rainbow Hall



I often describe the B & Bs that impress me as feeling at home. Rainbow Hall is more like a future state. It gives you a longing and a space to summarize the past. I can't describe this feeling. Where did it come from?

As usual, if I have a lot of work to do, I will be anxious to finish my work in my accommodation place, and then I will fall asleep after 1 o'clock. I completely forget to feel the space at that time. When I arrive at Rainbow Hall, I will want to go more. Experience and feel it allows me to get away from my tight work, think about my original intention, and think about my next plans.



Story about Rainbow Hall:


The existence of Caihong Tang is a process of realizing the dream and continuation. The continuation is because before Caihong Tang, the owner of the B & B Shuang Shuang He Xiaokang, ran a seaside B & B in Shenzhen called Caihong Bay. In five years, they went from first to first entering the B & B industry to full rooms every day. They had rich experience in B & B management. Therefore, when they opened Caihong Tang, they were actually continuing and upgrading on the original basis. At that time, the house had invincible sea views but only one missing yard. Shuang Shuang is a person with strong execution ability and a doer with romantic feelings. She likes to grow vegetables, raise flowers and fish. Therefore, when looking for the house of Rainbow Hall, they made up for the part that the house did not have in the past-it has a just right courtyard.





When they were in Shenzhen, because the contract of Rainbow Bay expired, they had to end the operation of Rainbow Bay, and soon entered the stage of moving and saying goodbye. This experience also changed their mentality a lot. It happened that period was also a bottleneck period for the well-off career. After discussion, they decided to take a trip before starting the next plan. So the first step was Xiaokang and Shuangshuang first delivered the things in Rainbow Bay in Shenzhen to Suzhou through logistics. Then the two started a self-driving journey, driving a car and two dogs all the way north along the east coastline to Suzhou Taihu Lake.




It was 2017, and when I came to this village near the lake, I fell in love unknowingly and wanted to stay. So Xiaokang asked a former colleague who was familiar with the lake to inquire about the nearby houses. The friend was very reliable and immediately contacted the landlord. Unfortunately, a competitor suddenly appeared the day before it was about to be confirmed. The vice president of a listed company also took a fancy to this house and planned to come here to recuperate after retirement. Xiaokang had some worries: Will the landlord suddenly raise the price, but fate is so wonderful. What should be yours is yours. The landlord not only did not raise the price but was very happy to rent the house to a well-off person, so he took down this house with a yard and close to the lake!


2017 was the year of creation. Xiaokang quit his job and built this B & B himself with Shuang Shuang. They were originally designers and participated in the entire process from the first draft of the design to the construction to the soft decoration after that. Unlike many B & Bs on the market that look for various Internet celebrity design models, they pay more attention to the true feelings and comfort of the guests, and also truly implement what they want. For example, Shuang Shuang has always had a special emotion for the fireplace. First, when guests check in winter, they will feel more warm and homey. In addition, the fireplace also carries the memories of her work and life in Canada at that time. In order to fulfill this idea, they designed their own concept. It took two nights to build a brick and a stone to create the current appearance of the fireplace.


The uniqueness of Rainbow Hall


This B & B has a wonderful fate with 3. Xiaokang and Shuang have each run 2 B & Bs in Shenzhen. This is the third B & B they have participated in and the first B & B after they got together to build a positive fruit. The house number is No. 33. The year the house was rented, the owner of the B & B, was 33 years old. In 2017, after more than a year of dedicated construction, it opened on March 3, 2018. On March 3, 2019, Rainbow Hall had its own group. Guests from all over the world gathered in this group to chat about many stories and recalled the experience of staying in. Everyone had a new start. This is also the magical place of this B & B. It is like a transit station for dreams. After checking in, you will start to think., and have a new understanding of the current state, bid farewell and reflect on the past, and then set off on a new journey to bravely pursue your dreams


Taihu


The name Rainbow Hall also seems to describe the colorful life and the variety of possibilities. It also represents tolerance, an tolerance for different choices, different cultures, and different experiences.

B & B owners are in the process of constant pursuit and realization. Although Xiaokang and Shuangshuang have completely different life and work experiences, and also have opposite personalities, Xiaokang is a designer who graduated from Hubei Academy of Fine Arts in Environmental Art and once opened a design company. After making a small improvement, she went to a tourism planning company in Shenzhen. After graduating from university, Shuangshuang went to Singapore to study and then worked for a Canadian import and export trading company. The two people who originally did not seem to have met again at a primary school reunion. Shuang Shuang, who returned to China for love, was also exploring what she wanted to achieve in Shenzhen. After several years of wandering, they each opened up their own careers and got better and better.


Living in Rainbow Hall is like coming to a very free space, where you will not feel restrained or uncomfortable. Here, you can feel the charm of Chinese style, and you can also experience the wildness of European style. No matter which one you like, you can find your corner and part here, as well as the inner part. You can feel the rhythm jumping on the piano in the living room, or you can sit alone on the sofa and read a book for a while. Or interact and play with pets and dogs. It is worth mentioning that this B & B is very friendly to pets. Every time I stay in a B & B, there will always be a friend asking questions about whether pets can be brought. This B & B is very suitable for fun with pets.




Rainbow Hall is a harmony of Chinese and Western cultures. From the outside, it is a typical Jiangnan building. It has white walls and black tiles with flying eaves and crooked corners. The house is located in Dongshan, Suzhou. It is in a village that is a ten-minute walk to Taihu Lake. It is a good blend of Jiangnan style and wild luxury style, just like the combination of frost and well-off life of the homestay owner. The girls are quick and quick, and the boys are more peaceful and calm, which are very complementary ~



It took a year to build this B & B. During the process, many friends helped speed up the opening process of the B & B. Some friends made a special trip to the B & B from other places to check whether the design was reasonable. Some people were specially responsible for supervising the construction and entering the B & B. When they arrived, some friends also came to the B & B to assemble various furniture together, so many stories and emotional connections occurred here among people and people.



Shuang Shuang travels to different places every year. The B & B contains old items she collected from Canada, the United States, Spain and other countries while traveling. It is said that more than 100 vinyl records have been mailed and collected here. At the same time, it is gathered here. The objects of many friends, integrating many stories and deposits, and also telling those different memories



Two young people with rich life and travel experience will naturally have unique properties. I always think that you will only think of and do it when you have studied or seen it. The same is true for creation, when they switch from different jobs and cities in different countries, the heart will be more abundant and the state will be more full, so when you get this B & B and start implementing it bit by bit, you will become more mature.








Different elements of craftsmanship, tassels, prints, knots, primary colors, and rattan weaving are blended together, and different old objects have come here from various places, carrying different stories and different people, warm yet charming

The design of the room combines the free and unrestrained bohemian style with the fresh and natural nature of Chinese countryside. Different elements of craftsmanship, tassels, prints, knots, primary colors, and rattan weaving are blended together, and the industrial style of the floor is plain concrete.








The bathroom is located in a corridor. You can see that the owner of the B & B is still very meticulous in controlling the supplies. The deep floor tiles are matched with the white square basin to form a strong contrast. The disposable supplies and IKEA water cups are the whole package does not fall short of the standards of a star-rated hotel.

When I go out to stay, what I care about most is hygiene. The B & B has two aunts to manage this area, and the owner's arrangements for them are also very orderly, so they clean every room very carefully. The comprehensive score in terms of hygiene is still good.


Food in Suzhou


The B & B is located in a village near Taihu Lake. It is rich in local specialty resources such as loquat, tea, bayberry, etc., as well as hairy crabs that attract tens of millions of tourists every year. Therefore, you can enjoy the fun of the countryside and take a ride here. Boat, experience the slowing down life experience in Taihu Lake.





Dinner frosts and Xiaokang took us to settle it at the farmhouse restaurant in the town. What I care more about when I eat out is the authentic food! Drink a glass of wine, chat, the sunset at night and the delicious dishes, my whole body recovers from the fatigue of work in the past few days ~




Breakfast was served at the B & B. My aunt prepared breakfast early and waited for us. Hot porridge, freshly steamed buns, rural eggs, and sweet sweet potatoes, served with pickles to be healthy and healthy.


An incident during the trip: drone blows up


There was also an incident on this trip. The next morning, I was going to shoot some video materials, so I flew the drone. There was no operation after taking off for about five minutes. The drone suddenly lost control and even pressed the pause button. There was no effect and no control. Although it fell in my sight, I still couldn't determine where it was, so I began a long journey to find the drone.

After this lesson, I also share some practical strategies for finding drones:

1. If you have just lost it, you can now click on the three bars in the upper right corner on the dji go 4, then click find aircraft. After opening it, click on the location of the drone to start flashing lights and chirping. This trick works when you have just lost it, especially if it is closer to you and the chirping range you can hear.

2. If it has been lost for a long time and the drone has almost no power, the method just now will not work, and it will basically not respond to any tweets. At this time, we will find the official customer service phone number to solve the problem. After making the call, the general processing process is as follows:

Open dji go 4 wide-click on mine-click on the flight record-click on the small cloud in the upper right corner-choose to synchronize one month's flight record to the official, and then you will receive a text message with the coordinates of the drone, and then you will go through| Aowei Interactive Map|, entering coordinates is indeed more accurate to search

The process of looking for the drone was also very tortuous. I can confirm that the drone probably flew into the house next door under construction. Unfortunately, the construction team went to another place, and the entire house door couldn't be opened, so with the help of the B & B aunt, I went to their other work site to find the person in charge and opened the door. It took about 5 minutes to finally find the drone.


After finding it, contact the official, and the customer service will arrange to fill in each information, then arrange for delivery, and send it to be repaired.

Suzhou two-day and one-night travel route


As a college student in landscape design, I should have come to Suzhou long ago to see the buildings and beautiful scenery of Jiangnan style. This trip was a good study and a good summary of this period of time. The atmosphere of life in the town where Rainbow Hall is located also reminds me of the scene at my grandma's house when I was a child, which is comfortable and full of charm.
