At the age of 18 to study in China

Dina's home is in Labart, the capital of Morocco. In addition to her parents, she also has a brother.

At the age of 12, Dina began to learn vocal music, but she did not contact Chinese songs at that time.

The fate of Dina and China began in 2010. That year, she graduated from high school and received a scholarship and got the opportunity to go to college in China. So, 18 -year -old Dina accompanied her mother to Shenyang, Liaoning, and went through admission procedures at Liaoning University. "Shenyang is my first stop to China, where the Northeast people are very enthusiastic." Dina said.

However, at that time, Dina did not understand Chinese at all. If she was formally enrolled, she needed to go to Beijing Language University to study Chinese first, and passed the 5th level of the new Chinese level to return to Liaoning University to study.

Dina also remembers that when she first arrived in Shenyang, although she was accompanied by her mother, they could not Chinese. They encountered a lot of trouble. Fortunately, there were many enthusiastic Chinese help her. On the day the mother returned to Morocco, the mother and daughter stopped a taxi and could only communicate with the driver in English, but the driver could not understand except the word "Airport (Airport)". The driver saw that the two only brought a suitcase and kept crying again. They knew that the mother and daughter would be separated immediately. After arriving at the airport, the enthusiastic driver also took the box and sent the mother and daughter to the waiting hall, and ordered a few words to the airport staff. "Although I couldn't understand what the driver was talking about at that time, I could feel that he was telling the staff to take care of my mother." Dina said that when he returned, the driver also sent her back for free back to her back. residence.

"China is my second home." One month after Shenyang, Dina came to Beijing to learn Chinese.

There, for the first time, she came into contact with Chinese songs and immersed in the world of Chinese songs.

Dina still remembers that the first Chinese song he heard was Lin Yilian's "At least You". As soon as she heard the melody, she fell in love with the song immediately. The Chinese friend around her told her that this was a classic old song. After learning to sing this song, Dina asked her friends to recommend her similar style songs to her. She also had more and more Chinese songs.

"Learning Chinese songs not only makes me happy, but also helps me learn Chinese faster." Dina said that while learning to sing Chinese songs, he also continuously learned and understood Chinese culture. Dina also especially likes Chinese traditional costumes. When she chased the drama with a computer, she saw the clothes in the costume drama very beautiful, and she wanted to buy the same one.

In 2012, Dina returned to Liaoning University to study international economic and trade majors. After graduating, Dina chose to stay in China and go to class in several trading companies. Later, China's self -media industry ushered in the wind. Because of learning singing since childhood, her voice conditions were good. Dina tried to shoot some short videos of singing on the platform. However, the response was not bad, so she began to operate self -media independently.

In the years in China, Dina will also take the time back to Morocco to visit his family and friends. When meeting with a friend, she often showed her hands and sang Chinese songs. Although Morocco's friends did not understand the lyrics, they were all attracted by wonderful singing.

Unconsciously, Dina stayed in China for 12 years, and Chinese became more and more fluent. At one time in Hangzhou, the driver saw that she had a face full of exotic faces, and fucking fluent Mandarin, and began to doubt: "Are you Chinese or foreigners?"

Dina listened to the driver, and was very happy, feeling that this was an affirmation of her. In Dina's heart, China has already regarded China as her second hometown. She remarks on social platforms: "China is my second home."

Street singing and spreading Chinese culture

In February this year, Dina, who had not returned to Morocco for three years, chose to return to visit her parents temporarily.

On Morocco's days, Dina did not idle, and she decided to sing Chinese songs on the street. However, what songs and where to sing are issues that Dina needs to think. Because Morocco wanted to sing on the street, he might be driven away. Fortunately, Dina was later supported by the local government and applied for a permit on the street. Dina finally sang freely on the street.

"On the one hand, I want to operate my self -media account in this way; on the other hand, I am a Chinese culture learner, researcher, and communicator. I hope to spread Chinese culture by singing Chinese songs on the street "Dina said.

For the first time singing on the streets of Labart, Dina sang "Crossing the Ocean Seeing You". Dina stood in front of the microphone, and there was a speaker next to her. When the singing sounded, the people around him stopped watching and shooting videos with your mobile phone. After a song, someone stepped forward and asked: "Which language do you sing? What is the lyrics? This song is very nice, can you write down the name of the song?"

Dina realized that she had to be responsible for the audience and the song she sang. Therefore, every time she sings a song, she will tell everyone the names and lyrics of the song first, and remind the audience that if there are still those who do not understand or want to learn more about the song, you can leave a message on the social platform.

Although she has sang Chinese songs for several months on the streets of Morocco, she has not had many video works to social platforms, only about 10. Some video shooting places were carefully chosen by Dina. For example, Saivera's seaside, sheep tree, etc. These are Morocco's very famous attractions.

Dina prefers old songs. When she sings on the streets of Morocco, she also chooses to sing some classic popular songs. To this end, she often goes to Chinese music software to find song lists, listening and feeling one by one. Once she feels like a certain song, she will study carefully.

And Dina does not take a long time to learn a song, only one day is enough. "On this day, I listened to this song repeatedly from morning to night." Dina said, sometimes he felt wrong, and she would change a new song. Dena will repeatedly ponder in the pronunciation of the lyrics. Although her Chinese has reached the sixth level of the new Chinese level test, she is still afraid that her pronunciation is not standard enough, and she is worried that someone will watch her videos to learn Chinese. If the pronunciation is not standard, it will mislead others.

Lin Yilian's "For You and I Being Blowing by Cold Wind", Sun Yanzi's "Starting Know", Zhou Chuanxiong's "Dusk" ... Many classic Chinese pop songs Dina have been familiar with it. Recently, she also began to challenge Cantonese songs and was seriously studying Beyond's "Sea Wide Sky".

"Cantonese is more difficult than calling. I am still studying the Cantonese pronunciation of this song. This requires a long -term process." Dina said that she bought a textbook for Cantonese and still studied related courses online. After the pronunciation of Cantonese becomes standard, sing this song to everyone.

Recently, Dina also participated in a singing and selection competition similar to the "good voice of China". "So many players, I sing Chinese songs." Dina said that "At least you" she sang made the judges have a strong interest in Chinese songs. At present, she has entered the top 60. In the next game, if there is a chance, she will continue to sing Chinese songs.

In China for a long time, even meThe lifestyle has become like a Chinese.
