Study in China

How I ended up choosing China to complete my masters degree? Let me tell you my story.

I first got this idea of studying in China from my cousin brother, he was here before. Things that fascinates me was the scholarship program and studying abroad of course. One other thing, an important one, is that I was confused about my future. I worked for a software company as a software developer for a year but still couldn't get confidence continuing the job. So, I thought doing post-graduation will give me some time to think about my future directions.

First morning in the new country

August 30, 2014

Arrived on time 12:20 at Harbin Airport. I was not expecting a Nepali Guy would be waiting for me to receive. We had to wait for more than 2 hours to receive another International Students arriving from South Korea.

It took 1 hr and 15 minutes to reach the International Student Dormitory because of the traffic otherwise it was nearly 1 hour drive. One good thing about China is many airports are made far away from the cities or residential area. The dormitory was a 12 floor building (There is no Ground Floor in China, therefore there are total 13 number of floors) with about 800 single rooms, looks very nice in international style. It didn't take much time to register for the dormitory because the university had already arranged everything and I was soon in my room 1238. It was on the 12th floor in Chinese.
