I love Glasgow and I work as a tour guide!

• What do you love about China?

There is so much to do and experience there! It would take me a lifetime to explore. It’s a country you could never be bored in

• Best Opportunity learning Chinese has given you

Since completing my scholarship I’ve taken part in 3 internships all related to my ability to speak Chinese. I didn’t realise to what extent it would influence my future employment

• Do you have future plans involving Chinese?

I want to work in the growing tourist industry in Scotland and use my Chinese in my everyday working life
