I regard the scholarship as an important turning point. Being born in a crowded city, I would like to get involved in shaping my living environment into a harmonic and sustainable city. The scholarship provides me a great opportunity to study abroad on Planning. In addition to lectures, I attend local council meetings and community forums, which enable me to get first-hand experience on local planning issues. I love to exchange ideas with people and make comparison between cities. Throughout the year, I am inspired to think globally. I do hope to pursue my career as a town planner and I believe that Hong Kong welcomes beneficial stimulation from all over the world.

I am glad to have a taste of living in a foreign country, which can be a fun but challenging task. I am trained to be a "professional" price-checker and my cooking skill is undoubtedly improved after numerous practices. I would never forget my eight layers of clothes and woolly accessories to withstand chilly winter. And most importantly, the highlight of my staying is the pleasure to meet Scottish, Hong Kong and international friends, especially Auntie Jean and Uncle Sandy. They are just cheerful and caring.
