I was born in China, so China is my homeland. Just as you know, China is a big Asian country with thousands of years of history. China, as one of the new emerging economies, has seen such a fast economic growth that it's now the second largest economy in the world, only second to the USA. China is still a developing country, though. Although China has made great progress in developing,  and even has succeeded in sending astronauts into space and a moon rover on the moon, and even topped the Olympic medal count/table, and so on, China still faces some big challenges - large population, pollution, corruption, etc. China is now one of the most popular travel destinations, where you can enjoy Chinese food, the natural beauty and the history, and much much more. 

I've lived in several different cities in China.  I still miss my hometown that is far away from where I live now. I'm kind of homesick or nostalgic - I wish I were still living in my hometown.  When I was studying or traveling abroad, I missed my homeland - I hate the feeling of being trapped in another country far away from mine, though I love to travel abroad. But home is where love is - anywhere can be home, you never know. I could have lived abroad if my son had succeeded in finding a job and having a family in another country. 

China is still trying to learn more from the developed countries. That's why so many Chinese students are still studying in America, Canada, Britain, Australia, France and some other countries. That's why we're so eager to learn English.
