征文16 ▏Aziz: Xiamen brings locals and foreigners together
Greetings to anyone who might be reading this. It’s been a while since I’ve written anything meaningful so let me start off by telling you a little bit about myself. I first came to China roughly five years ago which was 1 year after I had finished university. Uncertain of what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, one thing I was certain of was that a change was needed. I began looking into various opportunities abroad and stumbled upon the option of teaching English in China. Having travelled to most parts of the world, I thought: “What could be more different than China, right?”正在阅读这篇文章的朋友,你们好。我已经有段时间没写过特别有意思的东西了,所以让我先简单介绍一下自己。我第一次来到中国是五年前,那年是我大学毕业一年后。当时我不确定未来想做什么,但有一件事是确定的,那就是我需要改变。我开始在国外寻找各种机会,偶然间我发现可以去中国教英语。我走遍了世界上的大部分地方,心想:“还有什么地方比中国更与众不同呢?”

The first time I had a Chinese friend was at the age of 6. I had two Chinese classmates who could barely speak Italian, but at that time language wasn’t as important as it is now.我在 6 岁时交到了第一个中国朋友。那时候班上有两个几乎不会说意大利语的中国同学,不过那时候语言也没现在这么重要。

征文14 ▏Karla: A real Disney Princess story
Let’s be honest, every little girl wants to grow up to be a princess. We all do! I know I sure did. As a child in Texas, I often found any excuse to don a fancy gown with a matching tiara. As an adult I have made numerous treks to Disneyland with friends and family. So, imagine my excitement in the fall of 2017 when Disney English (“DE”) selected me to teach!说实话,每个小女孩长大之后都想做公主吧!大家都这样,我也不例外。作为一个在德克萨斯州长大的小孩,我总是想方设法地穿上漂亮精致的裙子,戴上配套的王冠。长大之后,我也经常和家人朋友去迪士尼旅游。所以,当2017年我成功选上迪士尼英语的老师时,我高兴极了!

征文13 ▏Smita: China helped me to discover my true self
Honestly, I never thought in my lifetime that I would be living in China, but my husband’s dream brought me to this heaven on earth. Just like many Indian women, who instead of following their dreams end up following and supporting their husband’s. In 2007, I moved to China from Indonesia to support him and his dreams. The first city I visited was Quanzhou in Fujian Province, with my husband and my son who was just a year old.老实说,我这辈子从没想过会住在中国,但我丈夫的梦想把我带到了这个天府之国。就像许多印度女性一样,她们没有追随自己的梦想,而是决定追随并支持丈夫的梦想。2007年,我从印度尼西亚搬到中国,支持我的丈夫和他的梦想。我第一次去的城市是福建泉州,和我的丈夫以及刚满一岁的儿子一起。

征文12 ▏Becky: I began a sports journey at the age of 40
I remember my first full day in China at the new school I was contractually obligated to live and work at for the next 6 months. Because of jet lag I woke up really early and had hours until I met my boss, so I decided to explore the area around the campus, and maybe find the city center and places like supermarkets and restaurants in my new home in Zhejiang Province.我还记得我第一天到中国新学校的场景,而且接下来的六个月我都必须要在中国生活和工作。因为时差的关系,我醒得很早,距离见到老板还有好几个小时,于是我决定去校园周围转转,或许能在我的新家——浙江,试着找到市中心,或是超市和餐馆
