[Music] hi I’m Jack Sweeny I’m from the UK I’m currently studying International Management and business analytics at Nottingham University Business School China actually here was my first time playing a football tournament like I played football since I was young but I’ve never played like a proper tournament on a football pitch I I feel like every day in China I learn something new whether it’s like Chinese language or some cultural thing or just something about myself being in a different environment I found out I really love to drink Chinese tea so wherever I go now I always try to chines tea I think Ningbo is such a nice city I think the city is not big in terms of tiny in like ch terms but Ningbo has 9 million people and this is the same as London or in fact I I met some friends from Copenhagen business school and actually ningo has more population than all of Denmark I love cycling I think the campus is like quite close to Don Chan lake so it’s very easy to just ride a bicycle and do a left around the lake I think for me the biggest change is kind of the ability to be more of a social chameleon or like to make friends with people from so many different countries like maybe before most of my friends will be from the UK or Europe but since I came to here I met people from Tajikistan Denmark Indonesia Malaysia China and I think it’s been super nice to just get on with people in different ways and you don’t have to follow like the British way of making friends I’m not 100% certain I’m still trying to think do I want to go back to the UK or do I maybe want to stay in China because I think my life in lingbo is actually very comfortable I have great friends the city is so like clean and quiet and I’m really considering to stay here yeah I think definitely honestly the whole experience exceeded my expectations like when I was in the UK and looking on the website I I didn’t imagine that experience in this University will be this great see you here
