I joined the program of HDU, China with the aim of immersing myself in the country’s rich culture and traditions. My goal is to learn from diverse perspectives and deepen my understanding. Through this program, I was able to deeply learn about China’s history, traditions, and daily life. I visited museums and historical sites and realized the diversity and specialness of Chinese culture. I also learned that countries throughout the world want to share good ideas with each other. This taught me the importance of learning from people with diverse backgrounds. The most memorable classes for me are the Kungfu class, Chinese Tea class and Chinese Calligraphy class. Traveling is a passion of mine, and I relish the opportunity to experience the diverse cultures of people and the unique characteristics of places. Throughout this program, I enjoy capturing photos as a way to preserve the memorable interactions between myself, the people I met, and the places I visited. These photographs serve as cherished reminders of the experiences I’ve had and the connections I’ve made.
