Even if I cross the oceans and mountains, I will go to see you.

Time flies, unconsciously, I have been in the United States for two months, and the date of returning home is coming, but my heart is full of sadness. When I was sitting in my colleague's car, I couldn't help feeling melancholy, watching the buildings fly by outside the window and trying to remember them deeply. In fact, it is not only beautiful buildings, but also people and things here. During my two months in America, I suddenly felt like a dream, grateful for everything I met.

In the early summer of 20 19, I flew to America with a little nervousness and many expectations. It took me more than ten hours as the plane broke through the clouds, crossed the Pacific Ocean and met the vast deep blue. I finally came to America, which made me feel strange and familiar. This is a strange country, which is always mentioned in textbooks and English listening materials.

As soon as I got off the plane, I saw my supervisor, Ms. Michelle, waiting for me at the baggage claim area with her hand-drawn drawings, which read "Welcome to Xue Mei". I greeted her quickly, and Michelle shook hands with me, which not only surprised and moved me, but also calmed my anxiety and tension when I first arrived in a foreign country. Michelle waited for me quietly while I was waiting for my luggage. Unexpectedly, my luggage and my companion's luggage never showed up, which kept Michelle waiting for a long time. I felt embarrassed because the plane was late and she had been waiting for me at the airport for hours. I haven't seen my baggage for a long time, so Michelle took us to the baggage claim area to go through the formalities. After the arrangement, Michelle drove me back to town, accompanied by bright sunshine, blue sky and white clouds, rolling green hills and pink acacia flowers blooming in the valleys on both sides of the road. All this makes me feel familiar and surprised. Sophora japonica is my favorite plant. Unexpectedly, in the summer of the American imperialists half a world away, she is everywhere, and there is a faint fragrance in the air.

On the way to town, Michelle played her favorite music, and we talked and laughed all the way. The green forest in Shan Ye, Tennessee flies by us. During this short stay, I felt an American lady's concern and respect for a China girl. Michelle volunteered to communicate with me. We gradually learn about hobbies, hobbies, family and other topics. She always speaks slowly and repeats patiently, trying to make me understand every word she says. She praised my excellent spoken English when I apologized for my poor spoken English. Finally, she said it would be better for you to speak English outside the United States, because everyone here speaks English.

I don't know whether the bright and warm sunshine in Tennessee, the endless mountains and the flowing clouds in the blue sky make me feel at ease, or whether the time with Michelle is too relaxed and happy. I forgot the fatigue and jet lag of the trip, and I forgot to worry about the loss of my luggage.

Driving closer and closer to the destination Pigeon Valley, we all call it Pigeon Valley. I fell in love with this town almost at first sight. This town is full of sunshine, music and laughter. There are all kinds of amusement parks in the town, and the buildings are colorful, but the colors are comfortable and unique, and there is almost no similarity. Looking around, in the distance is a continuous mountain of black smoke, and Shan Lan fluctuates. Then, look back. It is a clear long river that runs through the town, and Wei Zi's fresh flowers are in full bloom in the shade. Like a storybrooke!

Surrounded by mountains and rivers, it can be described as excellent feng shui.

Michelle took me to the island where I work. After going through the immigration formalities, Michelle gave me a map to walk around and get familiar with the environment. There are many shops on the island, and the buildings are all colored, which is just the right light color. The island is full of sunshine and music. The white Ferris wheel rotates slowly against the blue sky and white clouds, and the music fountain dances with the rhythm of rhyme. Happy children grin, while leisurely people walk or sit quietly, enjoying the bright sunshine.

I work at the Margaret Island Hotel on the island. The hotel has an excellent environment, the main color is my favorite light blue and the interior decoration is exquisite. My job is guest room, which is more suitable for my project. I work indoors and won't get the sun. When I clean the room alone, I can also listen to songs, read books and read articles, which is a little neat. I'll be a little happy when I get everything in order. Of course, I am also surprised and happy about the tips I receive occasionally.

My colleagues are also very kind to me, and sometimes I receive small gifts and snacks from everyone. When I first got familiar with my work, everyone was patient and taught seriously. Every time I don't understand, they will say, "Let me show you." Every time you meet a guest in the corridor, everyone will smile at you and say hello to each other. Some guests will say, "Thank you!" " Whenever this time, even if the body is very tired, my heart is very happy, which seems to have a refueling effect.

One week after joining the company, there will be an induction meeting to introduce us to the company's scale, rise, values and requirements for employees. The working environment and atmosphere of the company are very good, and I can clearly feel the corporate culture and atmosphere.

The hierarchical relationship of the company is not obvious. Supervisors and subordinates are friends, especially in company picnics and baseball games, I feel a harmonious and comfortable interpersonal relationship. I remember Petter playing trampoline with us and taking pictures regardless of the image. After the activity, he sent me home and talked with me on the way. Later, I learned that he was the big boss of the hotel.

I am extremely lucky that my colleagues are very good and my work is good, and I am not bullied. Because I live far away, Michelle, the HR supervisor, picks me up every morning, and Dee, my colleague, will take me home after work in the afternoon, or take me directly to the place I want to go. Thank you. Although Dee always said, "You killed me." Every time she asks me to take me somewhere after work, she will eventually send me off under my coquetry.

I live in the mountains, which is the home of local Americans. When I opened the door, there was a big garden. In the garden, the landlord Rhonda grows vegetables such as Bai Baihe, sunflower, cucumber and pumpkin, and there are several wooden birdhouses. Birds often perch on wooden houses and branches, and there are light yellow tea tables and chairs in the corridor. The sky is far away and clouds are floating. Perhaps the only disadvantage is the inconvenient transportation, but the people I met made it no longer a disadvantage.

This is my room. Rhonda took me to Wal-Mart to buy all the sheets and quilts, helped me choose the styles, and finally let me choose my favorite. She also asked her roommate what color she liked best. After she told her it was green, she took out a green sheet and put it on her roommate's bed. The bathroom is decorated with garlands, and a photo frame is hung on the sofa wall. She also prepared a hot water kettle, a rice cooker, a toaster and so on for us girls in China. When I first arrived in a foreign country, I was really moved by this considerate care and kindness. I really fell in love with her.

Landlord Rhonda

The landlord Rhonda is my favorite friend. She is over 50 years old, but in the process of getting along with her, she can feel the breath of a girl. All kinds of decorations at home reflect her good taste. She enjoys life very much. She likes to take care of her garden and vegetable garden, feed her beloved birds, listen to birds singing, sit quietly in front of the door while peeling beans and enjoying flowers, drink coffee in the sun and enjoy leisurely cooking time ... I like her kitchen very much.

Armando

Rhonda has a Mexican friend Armando, and I like him very much. He is passionate and a gentleman. He is an engineer and often works outdoors. He has dark skin but strong body. He is also a good cook. We cook together. I cooked Chinese food, Rhonda cooked American food and all kinds of dessert bread, and Armando cooked Mexican food, so I was lucky enough to taste many delicious American classics and authentic Mexican food. Every day, they will drive me and my roommate to go shopping and travel. I really don't know how to describe my luck.

Roommate sister

My roommates are three sisters from China. We all signed up for the same project, and then we traveled thousands of miles and met in a foreign country. They are beautiful, have good spoken English and are super cute. Sometimes I just listen to their jokes and smile. I still remember we went shopping together. No one advises anyone to spend wisely, but they all buy from buy buy. Finally, Rhonda said that we were crazy girls in China, and we had a wonderful time cooking together. We really missed the delicious food of our motherland. The funniest time was when we kept chopping vegetables for jiaozi.

Friends of the church

I have to mention the friends of the church, who are all volunteers of the church and take care of international students for free. We often hold activities to get together and experience small American games, including frisbee, sandbag throwing, volleyball and various card games. Taste all kinds of delicious food together, including all kinds of salads, hamburgers, homemade ice cream, burritos, cakes and so on; Enjoy the local scenery together, such as smoky mountains, fireflies, forests and lakes. They also share their stories, help us solve problems in our lives, and sincerely pray for us. In the process of getting along with them, I really feel love and being loved. They are so pious, practicing their own beliefs and doing what they agree with.

Sister China-Zhu Meng

There is also a local China sister, whom we call Meng Jie. She has lived here for eight years. She holds parties for students in China every week, cooks in person, takes care of us, and takes us to eat barbecue, hot pot, fried rice, jiaozi and other China delicacies. Sometimes it may take several days to prepare a gourmet party. She is a J 1 student of 201. Going to America really had a great influence on her life. The twists and turns and stories are hard to describe. She is willing to take care of us because she has also experienced the hardships of living in a foreign country.

Grandma Irene

The cute girl met grandma Arlene. Even if there was no conversation, only a smile, I almost fell in love at first sight. She is a very elegant lady, as if no one in the world would not like her. Fortunately, I had two or three opportunities to be alone with her. She drove me aimlessly, introduced what I met along the way, listened to her slowly and felt her tenderness. One scene that impressed me deeply was that a group of China girls sat around her and listened to her stories. Before leaving, she prayed for us sincerely, hugged us with a smile and watched us leave with a smile.

Lovely China girl.

Sister Meng's activities not only took care of us, but also connected us classmates. There are many students from Sichuan here. I really love them. They are all beautiful and have excellent personalities. I also like listening to them speak dialects. Very interesting. I often listen to them laugh while eating delicious food. There are also some young ladies in Gansu, Shaanxi and Xinjiang ... I like them very much. They are like summer flowers in full bloom, beautiful and lovely, and beautiful unconsciously.

Laura with a smile

Laura's Chinese name is Emily. As the name implies, she is really beautiful and lovely. She once worked as a foreign teacher in China for one year. I like her chocolate cake very much. Every time I attend an activity, she almost picks me up in her lovely car. I like chatting with her in the car, and I appreciate her taking the time to pick me up. An impressive conversation was that I expressed my feelings to her, and their concern purified a part of my heart. Before leaving, she prayed for me in the car and made me burst into tears.

I was lucky to meet them. The teacher said that the project satisfaction is largely related to the improvement of oral English, which may be related to my luck and the people I met. Everyone I met in America seems to want to create good memories for me. They always say, when you look at these photos again, you must think of me, ok?

The theme of Pigeon Valley is "escape", just like creating a carefree world where you can escape. Sunshine music filled the whole town, echoing people's laughter. It's great to meet this place this summer!

Many scenes always make me feel like I'm in a movie. Some scenes are similar to the movies Forrest Gump, Heidi and Grandpa, please call me your name. Sitting on the swing in Rhonda Garden, surrounded by trees and flowers, I was immersed in the summer green, eating the sweet cake she made, eating the delicious barbecue made by Armando, and watching the bonfire in front of me, feeling that I had lived in a small forest in the United States. Everything is too good to be true!

This is really a good opportunity for you to immerse yourself in it and slowly feel the local culture. I still remember Independence Day fireworks in full bloom in the sky, band performances and lively crowds in the park, Tennessee oranges and enthusiastic cheers from baseball audience, RV parked by the lake, children riding bicycles on the lawn chasing laughter, couples and children dancing with singers under the stage ... On Independence Day, the page about Independence Day in history books came to my mind, but I never thought I would watch an Independence Day fireworks in the United States before.

This is also a good opportunity to experience different cultures. I don't think any country has so many cultural intersections and collisions. China, Russian, Turkish, Canadian, Romanian and Italian ... have different languages and thinking, different cuisines and aesthetics. I remember that a Canadian mother and daughter lived in Rhonda's house and made a Canadian food "Shepherdess Pie" to share with us. I learned a few words of Romanian with my colleagues, and then every time I met a beautiful lady in Rome, I said to her in Romanian, "You are so beautiful!" " "

I also like the Mexican music videos Armando shared with me, including street performers' performances, singing and instrumental videos. I also like him to share his travel photos. Michelle shares her favorite music and singers with me every day and recommends me operas and books. I teach my colleagues to speak Chinese, teach them to use chopsticks, share my favorite poems with them, and introduce my life in China with my mobile phone photo album. ...

Travel around and enjoy the beauty of nature ―― Have a pleasant trip.

This is the first time that Rhonda and Armando have taken me out to play. It was a fine day, with white clouds outside the window, and the green in summer surrounded us. We put our hands out of the window to feel the coolness of the mountain breeze, stopped to touch the flowing stream and took photos on the rocks. After this short trip, we went home to cook, played music on the radio and enjoyed food and its preparation together.

Great smoky mountain national park. It was raining that day, so I could catch a glimpse of the Forest Symphony. The rain hits the green leaves, the mountain wind blows, and the stream clatters on the moss-covered rocks. Fortunately, I saw the deer in the deep forest, and the butterfly wet its wings and stopped on the stake. I deeply feel that no matter where the mountains and rivers are, they always make you feel close.

Fort gatling. It's also a cursory tour, but it has also gained a lot of happiness. This is another fairy tale town adjacent to Pigeon Valley. There are various exhibition halls and shops, as well as the Great Smoky Mountain Winery. There are many designs of black bears, the mascots of Great Smoky Mountain, and colorful bubbles dancing in the sun.

University of Tennessee. Sister Meng took us to Knoxville to visit the University of Tennessee. The university is beautiful, and the architecture is more like a European fairy tale. Magic is a sculpture. No matter what the weather is, the torch will never go out. After that, we also went shopping in Xicheng shopping mall and went to a Chinese restaurant to eat Sichuan food. I have never eaten such delicious Sichuan food in China.

There are many unknown small places. Armando drove me to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. When I meet a beautiful place, I stop. We walked into the scenery together and took photos. After every trip, he would take me to buy a cup of McDonald's "MC coffee" and end the date with the sweetness of chocolate. What a wonderful memory.

Amusement park, my roommate works in the local "wonderworks" and can take me to play for free. One afternoon, in the dazzling sunshine, my roommate and I went out by bike and played here once. And the place where I work, the island, the ferris wheel and the music fountain on the island, I am in it every day.

Before coming here, I only expected to earn a little money, taste one or two kinds of delicious food, make two or three friends, enjoy several scenic spots, experience different experiences and leave some good memories. Now it has been completely realized, with a few pounds of meat and a few degrees of darkness.

All the friends I met here made me feel deja vu, as if I had seen them somewhere before. Maybe some people and things are destined to meet, even though they are separated by oceans and Wan Li.

I don't know if you will have a story, which is destined to happen here.
