The life of a foreign girl in Hangzhou

Diana’s life is crammed with school works and part-time job.
兼职 [jiān zhí]: part-time job

“My daily life is basically about studying in five weekdays and doing a part-time job in three days. I will be amateur models. But this is not scheduled routinely,” said Diana from Uzbekistan who has been to China for three years.

“To be honest, I cannot specify why I choose to live in Hangzhou. Whenever I ask myself such a question, I always feel lost to find out an answer,” said she. It is alike to falling in love with someone. You cannot easily name a reason.

“Hangzhou is pretty and clean, where the climate is similar to Uzbekistan. The city is surrounded by an atmosphere of tranquility and peace.” Though traffic jam is also a headache for Diana, it never abates her love for Hangzhou.(From GMW.cn)
