Intricately carved butterflies flutter, enveloping concealed speakers blasting Chinese anthems of overwhelming, all-encompassing happiness. A lone, bespectacled man pauses by the sidewalk, drowning in the very Asianness of it all. An ocean away from family, but still; home. Home, compressed into a few thousand square feet.
