“You know what a rainbow means in my country? It means fortune!” Rivera Christian from Bolivia amazed at the rainbow before landing, “You find its origin, then you will have a lot of money!”
Kazak Irina from Russia also said when she saw the rainbow, “when you see a rainbow at a new place, it will be a good sign that you will meet so many good people, and that many good things will happen.”
This is the first time for all of them to be in Yunnan Province. Speaking of Yunnan, the first impression of Baptista Mircia from Cape Verde on it is that “the place is like spring all year round, and mountains and rivers stretch across the region”. The Gen Z blogger hopes she can share the beauty of Yunnan to her family and friends via Internet.

Before taking off, Malawian youth Chitosi Innocent expressed his expectation to this trip, “China is my second home, and I’m very happy to have this chance to be in Yunnan. I really look forward to our trip to Potatso National Park, because I think it’s good for everyone to have such close contact with the nature.”
During the visit to the Park, Chitosi was intoxicated in the natural landscape and local buildings. “I see people’s priority to the ecological conservation here from their houses, and in their eyes, only the natural resources can bring the happiest life,” Chitosi said.
