How did you get involved in travel?
"When I am feeling down, I firmly believe in the power of immersing myself in nature, embracing its freedom without any boundaries. Exploring breathtaking mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, meeting diverse individuals, and experiencing unique cultures invigorates my spirit. It is during these transformative journeys that everything seems to fall into place, enlightening my perspective on life. I am deeply aware of the profound beauty that travel holds and how it possesses the ability to mend my soul. This realization compelled me to join China Highlights immediately after completing my studies, driven by the desire to craft indelible and remarkable travel experiences for every individual."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"In 2017, I embarked on my graduation trip to Fangchenggang, a city in China.
One of the long-held dreams I had was to witness the vast expanse of the sea, a dream that finally materialized after my arrival in Fangchenggang . The anticipation built up as I neared the coast, and when I caught my first glimpse of the sea, I was overwhelmed with emotions. The sounds of crashing waves enveloped me, immersing my senses in the raw power of nature. It felt as though time had momentarily stopped, and I stood motionless, captivated by the enchanting symphony before me."

All the guides that we received in Japan were amazing and went above and beyond.
Just to clarify, I would categorized this trip as an adventure and not so much of a relaxing vacation so we did lots of activities and sight seeing (30K+ steps on daily basis). I had 3 children (9-14) with me so it was a bit challenging at times however the guides were incredibly... Read more
