Preface
I used to run a homestay, and unlike other homestays, my family mainly welcomes foreign tourists. Because I studied foreign languages and foreign trade in college, I can communicate with foreigners without barriers, and my parents also started a hotel, and I wanted to do something different, so I set the target customers as foreigners.
Because of my good social skills and strong affinity, many customers who have stayed at my homestay have become friends with me and have kept in touch ever since.
But I was impressed by a European beauty I met some time ago.
European beauties are coming to China for the first time, because of lack of understanding, they will run to ask questions as soon as they encounter them. I was a hospitable person, and every time she asked me, I tried to give the most detailed answers.
So, during that time, with my help, she had a great time in China, so much so that when she came back to the UK, she would send a message: I want to go to China, I don't want to come back. The reason was also a big surprise to me.

European beauties come to China
European beauties said that there are too many good things in China, with many foods, good scenery and convenient transportation......
It's good anywhere, but what impresses her the most is the strong human touch. She told me that when she first arrived, she didn't know where to pick up her checked luggage, and the airport was too big, which was very nerve-wracking.
Later, a staff member came to ask if she needed help, and then the problem was solved, but she was very happy, saying that the other party also told her some tips for playing, and said that she was welcome to China.
This is a warm breeze for her newcomer, which dispelled the inner defense of European beauties.
Later, she took a taxi to my homestay according to the location, and when she got on the bus, the driver's eldest brother also enthusiastically helped her carry her luggage. Although the eldest brother can't speak English, he shows people with a smile throughout the whole process, which makes people's hearts warm.
Later, when he got out of the car, the driver's eldest brother refused to ask for a tip, and the European beauty was surprised to say: "It turns out that you China don't have the habit of tipping!"
I nodded, and said "of course" without thinking. However, to the surprise of European beauties, of course, it is not only the fact that Chinese do not tip, but also the human touch reflected in many aspects.
For example, many Chinese people are very enthusiastic, helping people with directions, carrying things and even sharing food with strangers, all of which are things she encountered in just a few hours after coming to China.
She was obviously even more surprised when I said that it was just a habit for everyone, and that it wasn't surprising.
European beauties joked that seeing the Chinese so enthusiastic, they all wanted to live here all the time.
Because she didn't expect that for a person like her who came from a foreign country and didn't know much Chinese, it was really a very happy thing to be treated gently by the people here.
It's like when I went upstairs, a Chinese guy went downstairs to pick up takeout, and saw that the European beauty had a lot of luggage, so the young man directly and enthusiastically helped her to the elevator door.
So it is these things that seem insignificant to us that make many people achieve a different version of themselves. Actually, I don't know how to explain to European beauties why we are so passionate about helping someone.
But I will firmly tell her that our Chinese nation is a big family full of joy and love, and at the same time, we are also willing to pass on this warmth and joy to those in need, so as to make the whole country full of humanity.
Having said that, after the European beauty was sent to the elevator by the little brother, she quickly found my homestay store. She said that she was actually most grateful to me.
I was a little surprised, and when I asked, I realized that she was a bit of a road idiot, and every time she went out to a strange place, she needed to ask for directions several times. When traveling, many people are asked once or twice if they are okay, and a little more will be disgusted.
However, the beauty said that I was different. I called four times, and each time she patiently and meticulously told her how to get to her destination as quickly as possible.
European beauties said that when they came to China to travel, they were really touched by the enthusiasm and friendliness of everyone, especially people like her, who came to China for the first time with a nervous heart.
But fortunately, everything did not disappoint her. As she spoke, she continued. The beauty said that I am cheerful and enthusiastic, pay attention to details, and will welcome newcomers with sincere greetings and warm smiles, even tourists from afar.
I was a little embarrassed to be told this by a European beauty. But she wasn't wrong, I, as a homestay owner who loves to laugh, is my habit of showing people with a smile.
As for patiently answering customers' questions, it is also the attitude that our service industry should have.
In order to allow European beauties to adapt to the rhythm and customs of China as soon as possible. I told her that if there was a Chinese friend to visit next, it would be a big deal.
Because the Chinese will carefully plan the menu, prepare the banquet meticulously, understand the tastes of the guests, and then carefully select the dishes to ensure that the banquet is rich enough.
The more the European beauty listened, the happier she became, as if to say that there was indeed such a Chinese friend who invited her to have time to be a guest.
So I went on to tell her that no matter what type of banquet it is, the host will happily prepare the food, wipe the table spotlessly, set up a beautiful bonsai on the table, and when setting up the plates, he will pay attention to details and beauty, and try to highlight the romance and warmth of the meal, so as to welcome the guests, and this enthusiasm is the joy of the heart.
In addition, I emphasized the hospitality of the Chinese to the European beauties. They will pay attention to details and always be polite. As long as there is a guest visiting, no matter what the identity of the person who comes, the host will greet and welcome the other party with an extremely warm smile and sincere words.
Moreover, because Chinese have always been bold and careful, they will observe the expression of the guest in time, send the inquiry in time and meet the other party's requirements, in the hearts of many Chinese, the guest is God, and it is necessary to always accompany the guest, care for the guest, and solve the trouble for the guest at the first time.
The European beauty nodded while listening to the song, which seemed to be very helpful to her.
epilogue
The experience of European beauties in China has made her remember our country forever, which makes me very happy, and the experience of tourists can leave them with good memories.
As the European beauty said, China is safe, lively, full of food, beautiful scenery, and convenient to go anywhere, etc., which make foreign friends who have been to China unforgettable for life.
