Motto：Fake it till you make it

1% better every day

I’m trying to go on a solo trip by myself.I used to be a shy girl that I didn‘t record many beautiful life moment with camera,it’s a pity! Moreover, I gave up many dreams in the past out of the stressful study in China.But now I decide to pick up my hobby again，I just started to learn drawing ,which may help me to deeply admire the beauty of my colorful life .Inspired by life!

I’m Chen Yiling ,a student in China,21-year-old and a female currently living in Chengdu.I can speak fluent English,native Chinese,basic Japanese.In my spare time, I enjoy photography,playing guitar,singing,cycling and traveling.I’ve been to Colorado as an exchange student in 2020,where I had a wonderful time with my host family 😊.And I just came back from Bangkok ,where I’ve met so many friends from all over the world, I just love the feeling of making new friends. I like to hear all about people's values, curiosities and having a chat with others.Then I can gain a deeper understanding of other culture and customs.

In 2025,I got the chance to be a volunteer in a guest house in Otaru ,it was my first time doing this (though I only did this for a short period due to visa issues). I worked in a super cozy hostel,really enjoying the moments meeting new people,although they were the guests ,but for me they were more like friends,we talked with each other,played games and had meals together(haha) .It was an unforgettable experience for me!

I really enjoy taking photography,even though I’m not professional. Most of them I’ve posted on Instagram (Yllllchen)😄

Also, I’m kinda crazy about music,I can’t live without music,I listen to music when taking shower,cooking and eating… I’m open to all kinds of music ,if you’d like to share with me, I’d really appreciate that🙏 in the past , I’d probably say no to ‘rock music’…but since I started to travel more ,meeting more different people, I could feel that I’ve changed a bit,everyone has their own taste of music,movies,art…I think it’s coool to accept difference, diversity matters a lot!

Thanks for taking the time to read above all🙏
