Sirinpun Yantarat and her foreign friends work as volunteer commentators at the Liaoning Museum, in order to help expats enjoy the exhibition.
Sirinpun, a student from Thailand, is studying Traditional Chinese Medicine at Liaoning University of TCM. She and her friends help foreign visitors to understand the cultural background of the Exhibition of Eight Masters of Tang and Song Dynasties. It is key to Chinese culture but a big challenge for foreigners who have an interest in China. In helping them, I could improve my own understanding, which would be helpful for my study and future career, she explained.
