在尼泊爾加德滿都世界糧食計劃署做了半年義工——

生病住院，
被保險騙錢，
被喇嘛性騷擾，
親眼見到濕婆顯靈，
對於宗教的深刻反思。
帶你走進最貧窮的亞洲，卻也是體驗南亞文化最安全的國度。
充滿傳奇色彩的尼泊爾。

During my six-month volunteering program at the United Nations World Food Programme in Kathmandu, Nepal, I encountered the rawest sides of life:

Got sick and was hospitalized,

Was cheated by insurance,

Experienced sexual harassment from a lama,

And even witnessed what seemed like Lord Shiva,

These intense moments sparked a deep reflection on faith and religion.

Come with me into one of Asia’s poorest nations — yet paradoxically one of the safest and most culturally rich places in South Asia.

The legendary Nepal.

在米蘭博科尼大學作交換生——

被邀請在小城鎮Bergamo作客，

新年時躲在桌子下面吃十二顆葡萄，

在多洛米蒂盪了飛向世界盡頭的秋千，

和西班牙室友的家人在馬德里過聖誕節，

在巴塞羅那聖家堂丟了手錶還可以奇蹟找回，

試喝羅馬尼亞朋友帶回宿舍的超高度數家鄉甜酒,

很幸運在年輕時遇見歐洲，

讓浪漫有了形狀。

As an exchange student at Bocconi University in Milan -

I was invited to stay as a guest in the small town of Bergamo,

On New Year’s Eve, I hid under the table and ate twelve grapes,

I swung on a swing in the Dolomites that felt like it was flying toward the end of the world,

I spent Christmas with my Spanish roommate’s family in Madrid,

I lost my watch at the Sagrada Família in Barcelona but miraculously got it back,

I tried my Romanian friend’s extremely strong homemade sweet liquor that she brought back to the dorm.

I was so lucky to encounter Europe while I was still young — it gave romance a real, tangible shape.

一個年輕女生去南美洲危險嗎？

我會說：危險，

但是一個年輕女生，不敢踏出自己的舒適圈、任由命運擺佈更危險。

在這裏，我看著16歲的少女早早懷孕。

我看著腦袋本應靈活的少年抗拒學習。

我看著經濟低迷的他們快樂地過活。

不關心未來或遠方，

只關心週末的球賽和沙灘上的烤香蕉，

我知道沒有誰對誰錯。

這只是一種生活方式。

Is it dangerous for a young woman to go to South America?

I would say: Yes, it is dangerous.

But for a young woman, not daring to step out of her comfort zone and letting fate control her life is far more dangerous.

Here, I watched 16-year-old girls become pregnant too early.

I watched young boys who should have had sharp minds refusing to study.

I watched them living happily despite the economic downturn.

They don’t care about the future or the world beyond,

They only care about weekend football matches and roasted bananas on the beach.

I know there is no right or wrong in this.

It is simply a different way of life.

跳傘、熱氣球、自由潛，

澳大利亞是挑戰自我的一個時期。

從全球房價第一貴的城市搬到第二貴的城市悉尼——

這是一場關於人性的體驗，

朋友背叛、

房東違法、

老闆刁難、

在逆境中更加堅定自己想要的是什麼。

從而不顧一切他人眼光，做自己注定要做好的事。

Skydiving, hot air ballooning, freediving —

Australia was a period of challenging myself.

Moving from the world’s most expensive city to the second most expensive city — Sydney —

This was a profound journey into human nature.

I experienced friends betraying me,

Landlords breaking the law,

And a boss who made things difficult for me.

Yet in the face of all these adversities, I became even more certain of what I truly wanted.

From then on, I stopped caring about other people’s opinions and devoted myself completely to doing what I was destined to do well.
