  • Description

    Hej Hej! I’m Yuanna from Hong Kong, currently an exchange student in Sweden. As my exchange period is nearing its end, I plan to stay in Europe for a while before returning home.

    One of my greatest motivations is traveling for food, which is a significant priority for me. I find immense joy in turning every meal into a small act of love for the wonderful people around me. Sharing the culinary delights from my hometown allows me to offer a cultural experience to my international friends, and this brings me happiness. Cooking and sharing meals is my way of connecting with others and celebrating diverse cultures, which enriches my travel experiences and personal growth.

    Academic Background

    I am a fourth-year student studying Social Sciences, majoring Ageing Studies and Service Management. My studies focus on addressing the needs and opportunities of an ageing population through innovative service solutions

    Work Experience
    * I have interned twice as a Program Assistant in an NGO and an education company, where I helped with events and hosted them.
    * I participated in a school social service project working on a farm, assisting a one-man operation under an NGO, where I helped with farm maintenance, paving, and weeding.
    * I have worked part-time as a customer service officer in a performance center and handled administrative tasks in an NGO.

    Volunteer Experience:
    I have volunteered in Hong Kong, distributing meals to the homeless. This experience allowed me to apply my social science knowledge directly to serve the community, enhancing my communication and organizational skills.

  • What else ...

    I am an outgoing and adaptable person, which helps me quickly integrate into different environments and build good relationships with others. My sense of responsibility is evident in the various activities I participate in, and my love for sports, particularly as a member of the rowing club at my home university, has honed my teamwork skills and perseverance. I thoroughly enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, rowing, kayaking, and camping, which reflect my love for nature and animals—I'm a proud cat mom. Being a morning person, I find joy in starting my day early and staying active. Additionally, I am skilled at cooking and maintaining cleanliness, which contributes to a harmonious living environment.
