1. What's your favorite food for Spring Festival?

Spicy river fish, that you can actually taste the mud. Yunnan food is a particular favorite since it is where Chinese and Indian cuisines merge.

2. What would you like to do most during the Spring Festival?

I would also like to be more competent in Chinese than I am.

3. What is the biggest change in your life during the past year?

Seeing the world from a different perspective and not just a British one. It is also quite useful to have this new outlook since the world is likely to become more Easternized in the future. Working a lot with younger people – which most China Daily reporters are – is also energizing. They are also useful in helping you sort out daily life technology issues.
