老百姓: The Old One Hundred Names - The Lives of Ordinary Chinese Citizens https://journals.worldnomads.com/laobaixing/ Sun, 19 Apr 2026 04:33:08 GMT World Nomads Adventures Hello, my name is Amanda Jane Cullen, but everyone calls me Aj. I am 22 years old and I am from Buffalo, New York, USA. I am currently working on a postgraduate degree in Chinese Studies at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland – I am especially interested in how the lives of ordinary people are affected by rapid change both in China and across the globe. I am a person who is inspired by the world around me, and I think this is where my love of photography stems from. Taking a photo is an art like no other, it allows us to take a moment or an idea or a memory and save it to be presented at times and in places where it is most needed to be seen and remembered. The reason why I am applying for this opportunity is because I want to improve my ability to capture and relay subjects which make the world compelling and I believe there are no better teachers than travel and new experiences. https://journals.worldnomads.com/laobaixing/photos/39301/China/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel China laobaixing https://journals.worldnomads.com/laobaixing/photos/39301/China/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/laobaixing/photos/39301/China/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Mon, 14 Jan 2013 09:20:00 GMT 0
