Being MC VP Project (CSR) Mainland of China 2007/2008
My dear Friends,
As my one year experience in China is almost over I would like to share with you couple of things …
***I had Amazing team!!! People who took care of me, supported me in very challenging times, who very extremely funny (and mean ;)) and I had wonderful time during e.g. our team bonding – sunbathing + beach, grass land + horse riding, skiing + spa, Happy Valley and so many others…they are my friends I will never forget … Echo, Houston, Vincent, Jolin, Kitty, Dan, Mino and Stephanie.
***AIESEC in Mainland China WOW!!! Here I have to say RESPECT!!! Hard working, passionate, results and solution oriented, achieving your goals, having impact, being flexible and developing new strategies and executing them very fast….after 4 years I learned so much in MoC about AIESEC, I am motivated and didn’t loose passion (as lot of times we were scared in CR)…and all this is thanks to previous MC terms and their hard work to build and develop @ here in this way (THANK YOU and CONRATULATIONS!!!), and thanks to all members, MC, LCEBs for their hard work (I AM SO PROUD OF YOU GUYS!!!) and proud to experience that moment when we realized that China is Global Nr. 1 …..so touching….
***AP HOT TO GO!!! People REALLY care about you, this is what I realized once people were saying “AP Family”, yes, it is a family where you can share, talk, laugh, cry and they listen, ask, help and trying to learn…..this was even stronger for me in AP XPRO in Japan – aaaaa LOVE IT! Oh I feel really good among my AP friends….AP Hot To Go H-O-TT-O-G-O Au Hot To Go Au Hot to Go! :)
Experience China!!!

Experience China!!!
Learning Chinese + practicing at markets, travelling – Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Xian, Tianjin, Xitang, Shenzhen etc, getting to know habits and culture, playing traditional game Ma Jiang, eating great Chinese food (even when I was sometimes in shocked :)), going to KTV, barging with street sellers and much more…its intense…
LIFE – CHANGING!?!
LIFE – CHANGING!?!
Yes, my personality has changed so much, I realized so many things about myself, I went through so many challenges and I didn’t gave up….I am stronger, I learned so many new things, I am more open, flexible and solution oriented :) I really care about things happening around me, about impact we can have, I am so much closer with my family….oh there is thousands of things I would share :)
These are feelings after one year in very short description….
I HAD HERE INCREDIBLE, AMAZING AND LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE TRULY…..
For my friends – CHINA IS SOMETHING YOU HAVE TO EXPERIENCE! I strongly recommend you guys come here but not for a week or two but really experience this country with all beauty, problems or challenges here….Each country has its positives and negatives sides so as China…but once you don’t experience it you never know how is it in real. And also THANK YOU for your support during the year – it saved me lot of times :)!!!
For all my Chinese friends – THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! For everything you have done this year for me and for being my friend…. And I guess I can say :)
我是中国人 :) 我爱中国 :) 我爱我的中国朋友 :) 谢谢!!!
LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Yours Nina
