Young minds from diverse corners converge to unveil China's narrative in 2023, laying the groundwork for a promising 2024 and beyond, Meng Wenjie reports.

When reflecting on the year 2023, what comes to your mind?

In the latest episode of the China Daily Youth Power series, titled "Timeless Tales from China", aired on Dec 30, eight young people from France, Germany, Indonesia, Pakistan, Russia, the United States and Cape Verde shared their stories. Some of them had recently arrived in China for further studies, while others held a deep passion for the country. Throughout the program, they recounted their experiences in China during 2023 and extended a warm and hopeful welcome to 2024.

Susan St. Denis, a US student at Tsinghua University, chose the word "potential" to summarize the year 2023. She highlighted the important discussions between the leaders of China and the US during the China-US summit meeting and the 30th APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting.

"I think with these conversations, we see the potential for collaboration between our two countries. We can really accomplish many wonderful things when we work together," she said.

Denis has a personal connection to China through her father, a law professor in the country in the 1980s and 1990s. Having grown up with many Chinese friends, she was inspired to follow her father's footsteps to come to China.
