Stay in the big city and work hard, or return to a small county? It is a problem that plagues many young people.
"Moganshan's homestay brand has a high reputation and unlimited potential. For young people, there are definitely opportunities for development. "Post-90s" Deqing girl Qian Yu, chose the latter. She worked at the UNESCO Office in Cuba. After resigning for his dream, he ran back to his hometown to open a homestay called "SeeAnn Creekbank".
Resolutely returning to his hometown to start a business has the confidence
Well, I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming
(I dreamed of an armored knight coming slowly)
Sayin' something about a queen
(Talking about a queen)
......
Spring is shining, and up the clear stream, a white building appears in the eyes of reporters. Walking slowly into the hospital, I saw a girl holding a guitar and singing this song "after the gold rush", she is Qian Yu, the founder of The Creek Bank Homestay.
Moganshan, as one of the birthplaces of domestic foreign family music, has a deep homestay development foundation and development vision, which also makes more and more young people willing to return to Moganshan to explore a wider development path in their hometown, qian Yu after 90 is one of them, she will transform her own courtyard into a homestay, groping for the symbiotic development of survival and dreams.
Xi'an Homestay was planned and prepared by Qian Yu in 2019. After the completion of 2020, she returned to her hometown and officially became a returned entrepreneurial youth. "On the one hand, I want to solve my own survival problems, on the other hand, I also want to do something idealized." Qian Yu, who has just met, is slightly shy, but she is not shy at all to express her most direct thoughts in her heart, and she believes that doing a homestay in Moganshan is a good development opportunity for young people.
Although in the first year of returning to his hometown to start a business, he encountered the epidemic and the operation of the homestay was affected to a certain extent, but Qian Yu was not worried about it. "Moganshan's homestay brand has a high reputation, and has accumulated a certain customer base, with unlimited potential." Qian Yu believes that the development of Moganshan homestay industry is inevitable, and it will get better and better, and there are definitely opportunities for young people to develop.
Create an artist residency
In fact, before returning to his hometown to start a business, Qian Yu had a job that most people envied. From October 2017 to October 2018, she was the International Project Commissioner of the Social and Human Sciences Department of the UNESCO Office in Cuba, where she was responsible for the planning and execution of international projects, supporting the planning and implementation of intangible cultural heritage conservation projects, including the protection of local intangible cultural heritage, such as the protection of underwater architectural sites in Havana and the restoration of some local ancient buildings.
"The local culture is very strong, and there are often jazz festivals and various concerts." Qian Yu said that during the time she lived in Cuba, the most anticipated thing she looked forward to every day was to go to the street photography after work. The open and inclusive cultural atmosphere of the local area deeply attracted her.
Qian Yu told reporters that in Cuba, the cost of cultural consumption is relatively low, and a national drama performance often only needs to pay a price of 5 US dollars, which also has a certain impact on her planning to return to her hometown to start a business. How to make art closer to life, integrate into life, and become a spiritual food that everyone can enjoy while making a homestay has become an urgent problem that Qian Yu needs to solve.
After a period of consideration, Qian Yu plans to make the loft of the homestay into an artist's station after sorting out and decorating, inviting young artists to settle in, so that artists can deeply understand the local customs and customs of Moganshan, get creative inspiration, and create works of art relying on the humanistic resources of Moganshan from local materials.
In the attic of the homestay, Qian Yu also designed a small exhibition hall, which is now mostly posted with her local photographs in Cuba. In the future, it will become a small exhibition hall for young artists in residence and a platform for their exchange and display.
Attracting more young people to "go home"
Qian Yu believes that the culture of his hometown is very worthy of in-depth excavation, and young artists who know more about themselves can help the development and change of their hometown by providing a communication platform for artists.
"I hope that in this form, more young people will be attracted to return to their hometowns, more young artists will be attracted to create here, and more sparks of ideas will collide." Qian Yu envisioned, "Maybe we can bring more possibilities for the development of Moganshan." ”
Perhaps exploring survival and dreams together will experience a lot of setbacks and confusion, but Qian Yu still bravely took his own steps. When the reporter left, Qian Yu sat back in the courtyard and sang "Somewhere Only We Know"
I walked across an empty land
(I'm passing through a wasteland)
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
(I know all about that path.
I felt the earth beneath my feet
(I feel the ground under my feet)
Sat by the river and it made me complete
(Sitting by the river, my heart is calm again.
