Yang Shuping, an international student, went to the United States to denigrate the poor air in Yunnan, saying that the air in the United States is free and was criticized by netizens. But this American girl praised China's goodness.

The American girl Elizabeth stayed in Hainan for 15 years, lamenting that Hainan has more connotations than Hawaii, and when she returned to the United States to visit relatives, she left a word to her family: If one day, I die, please do not take me away from Hainan.

Elizabeth had been in China for nearly two years before she entered Hainan.

In 2004, Elizabeth came to Tangshan, Hebei Province from Missouri to work as an English teacher at Hebei Polytechnic University.

During her teaching, Elizabeth visited many parts of China, and she found that foreign online reports about China were different from the actual China.

She feels that China has been misunderstood, and China's history, culture, customs and customs are extremely profound, not at all as superficial as the Internet says.

Elizabeth increasingly felt that China was a country worth exploring.

In 2006, Elizabeth traveled to Qionghai Boao, and when she stepped on this quiet land, her heart was firmly grasped.

There are buffalo in the sea, coconut trees and many anglers on the sea, it is like a paradise.

She immediately decided to stay and start a new life here.

Elizabeth worked a lot in Boao to make a living, but she didn't speak Chinese and didn't find a job that was particularly satisfying to herself.

In 2008, Elizabeth changed her mind and decided to start her own business and open a family hotel to receive foreigners.

In order to run the family hotel well, Elizabeth has poured a lot of effort into the hotel, the hotel integrates Chinese and Western cultures, and the wall paintings have exotic foreign paintings and Chinese Li Jin jewelry.

In this way, every guest who comes here can not only feel the sense of belonging to home, but also deeply appreciate Chinese culture, the best of both worlds.

In addition, Elizabeth also personally cooks delicious Chinese dishes for guests every day, such as Wenchang chicken and Jiaji duck. At the time of dinner, Elizabeth also taught the guests the practice of Chinese food.

Elizabeth is not only responsible for the food and accommodation of her guests, she will also enthusiastically take them to the countryside to play, telling the local folklore and folk culture as they go.

Tourists like Elizabeth's explanation very much and listen to it with relish.

Later, many of them recommended their friends to come here for a holiday. Because of this, Elizabeth had the opportunity to meet more friends.

In 2009, Elizabeth was hired as a "volunteer promoter for foreign friends in the Haikou area of Hainan International Tourism Island".

While promoting tourism in Hainan, she runs a family hotel.

It wasn't until 2013, when the landlord stopped renting the hotel, that Elizabeth was forced to close.

After the work stopped, Elizabeth went to many places in Hainan to collect wind, from the Great East Sea of Sanya to the Water Man Township of Wuzhi Mountain, and then to Maogong Mountain... Her footsteps are all over the corners of Hainan.

She went deep into the Miao village of Li Village, wore brocade clothes, and drank glutinous rice wine.

Elizabeth took the beauty of the landscape she had experienced and took her foreign friends to continue walking for free, but she felt that she would never be able to walk enough.

Elizabeth's enthusiasm was not only reflected in her treatment of foreign friends, but also in her Chinese. She once suggested that a local girl open a restaurant, and she often introduced friends to this restaurant to eat, and the business was very hot.

Elizabeth did not know the Li Miao language, and she stumbled in Chinese, but this did not prevent her from building a deep friendship with the local residents.

Elizabeth said: "In Hainan, language is not the only means of communication, love works better than language. ”

Elizabeth impressed the locals, and everyone praised her: "She is a very good American, and she likes Hainan as much as we do." ”

Not long ago, when Elizabeth returned to the United States to visit her relatives, she said to her family: "If one day, I die, please do not take me away from Hainan." ”

Today, Elizabeth has set up her own website and is fully committed to promoting Hainan to the world.

Elizabeth's determination to take root in Hainan proves that she has fallen deeply in love with Hainan, and even if she dies one day, her soul will not want to leave here.

This also reflects from the side that the charm of China's Hainan is attractive enough.

In fact, there are many places in China like Hainan, which have very humanistic characteristics and have yet to be discovered. Cities can only be seen if they are spread, and culture can only be "alive" if they are spread.

Seeing Elizabeth's love for China, I can't help but think of Yang Shuping, an international student, who began to tout that the air in the United States is free, in order to denigrate Yunnan, which gave birth to itself. Her words and deeds were strongly resisted by local students, and later she was also condemned by domestic netizens, and then looked down upon by Americans, without a job, and had a miserable and miserable life.

An American who knows China's good, Yang Shuping in front of her, does not feel ashamed?
