About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to visit 3rd world countries and explore the sincere people around the world.

ABOUT ME

I would like to travel as many places as I can. I want to see different things and meet a lot of people and talk to them.
I like to go jogging, do my yoga and watch the movies. I do see issues from different perspectives, which enables me to think more openly about things. I consider myself to be an enthusiastic and easy-going person who likes to make friends and try new things. There are a lot of friends willing to provide a hand when I need help. I also attend a lot of volunteer activities to help those who are in need. Besides, I am interested in languages, so I study Japanese and French as my second and third languages.

PHILOSOPHY

I also attend a lot of volunteer activities to help those who are in need. Because i think helping others is important and can let me feel happy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For my last semester of my MBA study, I went to Lyon 3 University as an exchange student. During the school break and short vacation, I traveled many cities around the Europe.
At first, I traveled with the chinese girl who comes from China. We do have good time. I remembered one time we needed to catch very early ryanair fly from Barcelona to Paris. We almost missed the shuttle bus. But luckily, we made it.

The next trip, I traveled alone. It is the time I become a independetn backpacker. In the beginning, I am a little little bit of scared. But many people are willing to give me help. For example, when I at Paris again, when I search places on my map, some Parisians would say: Tu et perdu (Are you lost?) etc.

These days in Europe, I am really appreciated the helps they gave to me. I had many fantastic experiencse and met these people. I not only making many good friends but also broadening my horizons.
