METRO: People are usually running to Beijing or away from something back home - Which are you?

A: Running to Beijing, because I have always been interested in Chinese culture. When I was little, two of my father's friends used to tell me I look like a Chinese minority. Since I was 7 years old, I've been very interested in China and spent much of my childhood reading about this country. I don't think I look too Chinese now.

METRO: What do you hope to get out of our stay in China's capital?
