| Summary | "Muistelmia Kiinasta" by Wilhelmiina Arpiainen is a collection of memoirs written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the author's experiences as a missionary in China, detailing her observations and interactions with the local culture, people, and challenges encountered during her service. The narrative explores themes of adaptation, faith, and the contrast between Western and Chinese customs. The opening of "Muistelmia Kiinasta" introduces the author's first days in China. Filled with a sense of awe and trepidation, she describes her arrival at the Chinese coast and the unique feelings of being in an unfamiliar land. As she navigates her initial experiences, she reflects on the emotional weight of missionary work, from the encouraging words of her mission leader to the practical challenges of fitting into Chinese society, such as donning traditional clothing. The author captures the bewildering beauty of her surroundings and the warmth of her new community while grappling with her purpose and the cultural transformations she faces.
