After Luna from Kazakhstan married into China, I felt the differences in different cultures. But the enthusiastic people and the warm community made Luna feel that living in China is a very happy thing.

Airapetyan Anushik (hereinafter referred to as Luna) has been married to China for 3 years after marriage. She is from Kazakhstan, once a stewardess of Dubai Airlines, with a tall figure and a good face. Now she settled in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, and runs a video number called "Sanpi and Luna" with her husband Sanpi (pseudonym).

In 2017, she was introduced by a friend to come to Wuhan to play, and met Sanpi, a guy working in Wuhan. The two have a good opinion and feelings, and they will be lifelong for life. After more than a year of preparation, Luna and Sanpi married in Wuhan on February 9, 2019.

So far, Luna has been in China for three years, and what is she impressed by China?

China's high -speed development impressed her

After Luna from Kazakhstan came to China, I felt that China was very interesting and people were very enthusiastic. Luna believes that China is a country that can quickly integrate technology into life. For example, mobile payment, takeaway, and express cabinets all affect people's lives, which is very convenient. Generally speaking, she believes that China has developed very well, including comprehensive national strength and economic level, and infrastructure, which gives Luna a deep impression.

Since Luna comes to China, she thinks that China's law and order is better. In the area where she lives, it is safe to go out in the middle of the night and even in the middle of the night. It can easily come out to enjoy Chinese cuisine at night. In addition, Luna is very fascinated by Chinese food. Chinese food makes her feel overwhelmed and choosing difficulties.

But the difference in culture makes Luna still feel very good to adapt. Luna values ​​the family very much. She likes to play with relatives, but there are too many relatives in Chinese. Luna, who is used to English and Russian, is a bit unclear and complicated. Fear of returning to the country to meet the relatives of her husband.

In addition, Luna believes that communication in China is not convenient. Luna is currently living in Wuhan. There are many regions and measures specifically for foreigners in first -tier cities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and even when they go out to do things, they will encounter English. There is difficulty in communication between ordinary life communication.

Wuhan is a large stove, which is very hot, which makes Luna feel uncomfortable in summer. Walking on the street, Luna will feel uncomfortable, because Wuhan people are more enthusiastic and informal, so in the summer, many people on the street are exposed on their bares, making Luna from Kazakhstan a little used to this kind of enthusiasm. Unrestrained urban atmosphere. Because her hometown is relatively small and cold, everyone on the street will be more dressed, and no one will walk like this, so Luna will feel that she is not habit or even embarrassing.

But she also believes that this is the characteristic of Wuhan and its warmth.

People are enthusiastic, the community is warm

In the community she lives today, Luna feels very different from her hometown. Perhaps it is because of the wide people of Kazakhstan, and interpersonal relationships do not care about each other like China.

Luna believes that the community atmosphere in China is very good. Perhaps it is because of the cross -border marriage. The surrounding neighbors are very concerned about Luna and Sanpi's life. The couple have been helped by many people in their lives.

What impressed Luna was very profound that in addition to many people in China, there were many activities. For example, the old uncle and grandma of the community would come out regularly to serve the community for free, cut hair, shoes, and grinding knives. Such community activities are very lively, and Luna feels different warmth.

Luna believes that the Chinese can respect the elderly and love the young. For example, there are community activity centers. Many elderly people and children will play in the activity center. Life is very comfortable.

In addition, Luna recognizes Chinese police, because Luna's Chinese is not particularly good, and Chinese policemen often pay special attention to Luna's situation. For example, when some anti -fraud propaganda, in order to take care of Luna, the police would invite Luna to the local police station to translate each item into English, and then introduce Luna sections and carefully. I also told Luna that they can find the police station and they will try to help. Luna also made a series of videos for this to help local police stations on anti -fraud publicity online.

Looking forward to the future

Luna has been married to China for 3 years. She has lived well in China, but she often misses her hometown and her family. When she got married, Luna felt very regrettable. Because of the visa, parents could not come to the wedding scene. They thought they could let their parents come to China after a period of time, but then a new crown pneumonia epidemic broke out in Wuhan. After that, the price of global flights soared, and the high prices made Luna discouraged, so that she had a feeling that she could not recall.

Luna and Sanpi came together for love, and now they still rent a house.Because Luna has not got the green card, it is difficult to find a job, and the lack of support from the employer, Luna does not have national benefits such as medical insurance.Although life is relatively poor, Luna still insists on learning Chinese and operates the video number.Luna told the reporter "Xiaokang" that she could apply for a residence permit in China for more than a year, and then she could work and live in China more conveniently. At present, she is still actively preparing for pregnancy and hopesGive birth to a healthy Chinese baby.She also hopes that the epidemic will end soon, letting herself and her parents gather as soon as possible, and let her parents come to China.
