Ollivier Jean-Baptiste, 25, a vlogger from France living in China, delivered a speech on the latest episode of the China Daily Youth Power series. The episode, named "Timeless Tales from China", was aired on Jan 30.
In his speech, titled "Bridging Cultures: A Personal Journey from France to China", Jean-Baptiste spoke about his initial impressions of China. Just like his family and friends, he saw China as a distant and mysterious place with a culture entirely different from France and other Western countries.
The idea of visiting China first came to him when his uncle, who worked in China, returned with endless praise for the Chinese lifestyle. "Everything, from the food to the scenery, was incredibly appealing to me," he recalled.
Later, a Chinese woman introduced him personally to the everyday life of Chinese people. He learned to use WeChat, Alipay, and navigating Chinese social media, which exposed him to a different way of living. The woman later became his wife, and they moved to Beijing together in 2022, which Jean-Baptiste described as "eye-opening" for him.
"She took me to see the flag-raising ceremony. Witnessing countless young people rushing toward the flag, I was deeply moved. It's a country of strength, unity, and love," he said.
When Jean-Baptiste visited his wife's hometown for the first time, he couldn't speak much Chinese. While he was riding a bike, a group of relatives of his wife started shouting "waiguoren", which means "foreigner", and ran after him. He understood that this was their way of showing interest and hospitality.
"I felt their friendliness toward the French. Many, even those who spoke little English, would say 'welcome to China'. I felt the warmth of home in a foreign country and was thrilled to live in China," he said.
All of these experiences made Jean-Baptiste eager to explore different aspects of Chinese culture. He visited the Great Wall in Beijing and the Terracotta Army in Xi'an, Northwest China's Shaanxi province. When he returned to France for vacation and shared photos of his travels and life in China with his family, they were also excited.
Apart from his personal experiences in China, Jean-Baptiste noticed that friendly interactions between the two countries are also increasing. After learning about the 15-day visa-free travel from France to China, his family and friends couldn't wait to book their trip to China.
"I'm overjoyed to host them during the 60th anniversary of China-France diplomatic relations, showcasing China's modern development and rich history," he said. "I may be just an ordinary person with limited influence, but everyone can be a cultural ambassador."

The aim of this newly established space is to lead innovation, adopt cutting-edge technology, and ensure the school remains at the forefront of tech education.
The school has invited robotics education project developers to share their insights with the students on their journeys from makers to entrepreneurs. Students are encouraged to participate in real project development and apply their knowledge to practical scenarios.
During the launching ceremony, the entire school community had hands-on experiences with the latest generation VEX Workcell CTE simulated industrial robot arm and the world's first desktop-level Raspberry Pi robot dog with a mechanical arm.

Tom Egerton, principal of BCIS, said: "The APEX fits with our strategic direction of a personalized approach to education, developing collaboration and leadership skills. It challenges, inspires and empowers our students to dream big, aim high and reach their pinnacle. We hope in time 'Meet you at the APEX' becomes a common phrase at BCIS for parents, students and teachers to gather to learn."
The school places a strong emphasis on personalized learning as a fundamental strategy, seeking to spark students' distinctive strengths and exploratory enthusiasm through personalized education tailored to their strengths and passions. To realize this goal, the institution offers a diverse array of courses and resources, effectively harnessing students' innate strengths and enthusiasm for exploration.

The 2024 CCTV Spring Festival Gala has concluded its fifth and final rehearsal on Wednesday. The much-anticipated annual gala is now ready to present a visual and auditory feast for audiences nationwide on Friday.
It has been revealed that individuals from many diverse backgrounds, such as noodle-pulling masters, technicians, police officers and athletes, will participate in the opening short film of the gala, titled 'Our Spring Festival Gala'.
The main venue is located in Beijing, and this year's Spring Festival Gala will set up branch venues in four locations, namely, Shenyang in Liaoning province, Changsha in Hunan province, Xi'an city in Shaanxi province, and Kashgar prefecture in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region.
This marks the first time the gala has established a branch venue in Xinjiang, with Kashgar in the southwestern part of the region being the chosen location.
Kashgar, with its extensive history, diverse culture and distinct ethnic features, stands as a quintessential representation of Xinjiang.
It holds the well-deserved reputation of "If you haven't been to Kashgar, you haven't truly experienced Xinjiang".
Its expansive territory is characterized by breathtaking landscapes, encompassing oases, deserts, poplar forests, glaciers and snow-capped mountains, offering a plethora of rich and varied tourist attractions.
Over 2,000 years ago, Kashgar was a crucial hub on the Silk Road, attracting merchants and traders from both China and abroad. As a place of diverse ethnicities, it has also become a stage for the exchange and integration of various cultures, with a rich cultural heritage.
Situated on the southwestern border of China, Kashgar, leveraging its strategic location, has also become a crucial gateway for China's westward opening and an international golden corridor for China to access Central Asia, South Asia, West Asia and even Europe.
Local residents are eagerly looking forward to the gala hosting a branch venue in Kashgar.
Urmajan Turdi, the owner of a nang bread shop in Kashgar, was pleased to learn that the gala would establish a sub-venue in his city.
"In recent years, Kashgar has experienced positive development. I hope that, through the Spring Festival Gala, Kashgar can attract more tourists to come and explore the city," he said.
