I am an innovative and curious person. During this summer, I went to London to have an overseas internship and have got an extraordinary experience there.

This is my first time travelling to another country and living in there for 2 months alone, where I have encountered lots of difficulties and barriers, but at the same time, it brings me many unforgettable lovely moments and allow me to improve myself on different aspects. It turns out made all the difficulties I have come across are worth.

While working in Unrest World, I have experienced the British working culture and environment. To work in a British company comfortably, adapting is always what you need to do. During the 6 weeks internship in Unrest world, I have successfully adapted the culture there and enhanced the ability as well. To adapt easier, being curious and open-minded can always help you build better relationship with your colleagues and blend into the office faster as well. During this experience, I fortunately met a group of nice colleagues. They were willing to teach me things and answer every question I asked, so I did learn many things in the fields of accelerator, sustainability business, finance, etc. They also encouraged me a lot to explore more in both UK and Europe. Therefore, I was able to sometimes leave early or have a day off on Friday and got 3 days to travel and explore other cities. Exploring a new place can always bring me new knowledges and inspirations, which are also one of the biggest gain during this trip.

Overall, this is an fantastic and worthy experience, which brings me different kinds of knowledges and ideas.
