I didn't expect me to study abroad".
Talking about why he came to China to study, Tang Yihong recalled his original choice and felt very surprised. At the age of 18, Tang Yihong thought that she would study economics at a university in Turkmenistan, and after graduation, she naturally entered the bank. But by chance, she came across an article that introduced the logistics management major that is very popular in Turkmenistan, and she came up with a keen idea, "If I study logistics management Xi now, I will be very easy to find a job in the future!"”
What seems to be a whim-of-the-moment idea is supported by rational analysis. Turkmenistan is located in the southwest of Central Asia, bordering Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan to the north and northeast, Azerbaijan and Russia to the west by the Caspian Sea, Iran to the south, and Afghanistan to the southeast. The superior geographical location not only connects Central Asia, the Middle East, South Asia and the Caucasus, but also serves as a corridor for China's import and export markets to South Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe and other places, and also connects China with the Caspian Sea. Turkmenistan was an important node on the ancient Silk Road, through which Chinese goods were transported to Europe. Tang Yihong believes that Turkmenistan and China have a broad space for cooperation in the field of logistics.
The logistics discipline of Beijing Jiaotong University is a well-known discipline in the field of logistics in China. In this way, under various considerations, Tang Yihong came to Beijing Jiaotong University alone to start her study.
I am very happy to come to China".
After coming to China, Tang Yihong, in addition to studying Xi, she also participated in various cultural exchange activities and traveled to many places in China.
In the "100 Reasons to Love Beijing" event, Tang Yihong experienced the traditional Chinese costume - Hanfu for the first time. Her delicate hair and gorgeous costumes make her feel like she is Chinese. "Wearing Hanfu, I really came to China. Tang Yihong said with emotion.

In addition to Beijing, Tang Yihong also "checked-in" many other Chinese cities.
In Guizhou, she experienced ethnic customs and beautiful natural scenery;In Shanghai, she is excited by the city's fashion and cosmopolitan cosmopolitanismIn Xunhua County, Qinghai, she was amazed to find that there were people here who spoke Turkmen. "If I feel homesick, I will definitely go to Inner Mongolia again. Tang Yihong is obsessed with the food of Inner Mongolia, where she can not only taste the same yogurt as her hometown, but also the salty milk tea that is not available in her hometown, and she is still buying salted milk tea from Inner Mongolia online. This year, Tang Yihong also experienced a Zibo barbecue, and the atmosphere of people gathering around the fireplace and the charming smell of fireworks emitted by the barbecue made her extremely relaxed and intoxicated.
In her eyes, every Chinese city she has visited is different, and the only thing that is the same is that every time she comes to a new city, she exclaims whether she has gone to another country. "I am very happy to come to China," Tang Yihong said happily.

Tang Yihong, who is already in his fourth year, decided to stay in China after graduation, delve into the logistics management major, and apply what he has learned to the construction of his hometown.
The vigorous development of China's new energy electric vehicles makes her feel the dual power of science and technology and environmental protection, and she also hopes that China and Turkmenistan can strengthen cooperation and exchanges, and can "bring" China's new energy vehicles back to China.
After returning to China, I want to start my own logistics company. When it comes to the future, Tang Yihong has set such a goal for himself. (ENDS).
