ABOUT ME

Hello guys, this is Viviene,I was born in Wuhan, China, and I had a wonderful childhood at my hometown. After high school, I went aboard to New Zealand for the foundation studies, at Auckland University. Then I had my college education at MQU, in Sydney, Australia.

In 2006, I've been to Italy as an exchange student at Bologna University, which I had a really good time there. In the end of 2007, when I finished my B.A. degree in MQU, I chose to take a gap year post college life, then I travelled almost half-around the world (Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania, Singapore, Neimeng, Liaoning, North Korea, Tibet, Nepal, India, Thailand, Vietnam, Yunnan and Russia)

After the long journey, I finally chose to stay at Beijing for a year. Well, in Beijing, I was flat out busy with non-degree courses. I've been attended to Peking Univeristy, Communication Univsersity of China, and Beijing Film Academy. And even more, I tried to learn Spanish at Cervantes Institution. You could imagine what a crazy learning year I got. Anyway, I DO learn a lot with all these colleges and the crews I used with.

Now I'm gonna stay in my hometown - Wuhan for a while, take a rest, thinking and planning my further adventure. It might be in another part of the world (South America, most probably) yet I need to start my own business, and earn enough travelling expenses first.

P.S. For the gap year I've travelled, here is my Flickr:

Algo increíble que he hecho

The most amazing thing I have done is...
I took the transsiberian train across over China and Russia from Beijing to Moscow in the summer of 2009. Spent 7 days on the train, with non-internet, non-TV, non-newspaper, and guess what, I haven't had shower for that whole SEVEN days. (What the h*ll?..:)
Unforgettable experience, and totally worth it.
