I am a Chinese Mandarin teacher in an international school. I have lived in Saigon for 3 years.

------------------------------

These are some milestone of places in my life so far:

1.Linzhi,Tibet.(Qinghai-Tibet Plateau).
I was born here,I will never forget the snow mountains and the bright star sky;

2.Jiyuan,Henan province(Middle of China).
This place is filled with all my memory of childhood. I wanna thanks my grandpa who has mainly influenced my personality during these nearly 20 years. He is my lifelong mentor.

3.Chengdu,Sichuan province(Southeastern China).
4 years life in university makes me well-educated and fall in love with this city.Right now it is the headquarter of my life for me and my family have moved there 9 years ago.

4.Qingdao,Shandong province(a seaside city in eastern China).
This is the place that initially opened my eyes to the entire society and saw the sea first time during my first job contract of accountant.

5.Saigon,Vietnam.
3 years ago, I didn't know I will stay here for more than 3 years. This is the place which has given me the confidence that I am not afraid of going to any conner of this world alone.
