Great expat-ations

Why China?

After living in Germany for nine years, it was time to go back to school and get an MBA and my next career move. I started to look beyond Europe and decided to work in Asia. Nobody at that time was going to China for professional reasons! I saw the future staring at me and I decided to go.

In 1981 I went to Beijing for the first time. Everything clicked and I started planning my future here. I liked the people, the culture, the language, the challenges and the adventures it offered.
