Now he is the most popular teacher at the kindergarten.

"Qidong is a safe, free and vigorous city," said Nana.

In the past four years, Nana has witnessed the changes the city has undergone. "When I first came to Qidong, the Wuyue Plaza and Phoenix Plaza Shopping Center had not yet been built. Now these large entertainment and leisure plazas are very popular. The roads around the school have become wider, the buildings have become taller, and there are more supermarkets and farmer's markets."

In his spare time, Nana often finds a quiet place to take pictures of the beautiful scenery. "I love going to Butterfly Lake Park, Golden Beach Scenic Area and Evergrande Venice." Nana always enjoys the beautiful scenery of Qidong.

Both the kind people and the good environment of Qidong are why Nana continues to live and work there. "Qidong is a very livable and comfortable city. I love Qidong and it is my second home."
