After a night occupying our train wagon physically as well as acoustically we arrived in Xi’an. Most of us imagined Xi’an to be a small city – a chance to get some rest between Shanghai and Hong Kong. They were wrong. Our guide Ivy made that pretty clear when she told us about the political […]
The last day in Shanghai started with some heavy lifting. Luggage was packed and gathered in the hotel lobby, which ended up being open to exhibition for quite a while, since the local bus driver seemed to be unfamiliar with Shanghai’s morning traffic. Overall, the concept of time seemed to be not very well understood […]
After the celebrated unification of the Field Trip Group 2016 the night before, getting up proofed to be challenging to certain executive members. After a slight delay, the group headed to Swissnex. Upon arrival, the lovely Isabel greeted the group. Up next, an introductory presentation was held by the Swiss consular, which set a rather […]
Early in the morning a group of jet-lagged young ZHAW students gathered in the hotel lobby. After a surprisingly fishy but excessively diverse breakfast, the strengthened group of individuals set off to explore the vibrating city of Shanghai. Regardless of the cruel early hour (8.00 am!!) the group started their conquest through the business hub […]
It just takes another month and we are on our way to China and Vietnam. We all look forward to this trip with high expectations. The study trip leads us from Shanghai to the old emperor’s city Xi’an, on to Hong Kong and to Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. We will be officially […]
Without doubt was this year’s field trip to China a huge success. Not only did the participants receive a great insight to successful multinational companies, organizations and start-ups, but also explored the natural as well as cultural sites of this astonishing country. A huge thank you goes to executives and representatives of companies and organizations […]
Our last stop on this journey is Hong Kong. For the final day we have once again a tough program. In the morning we had the opportunity to visit the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). First we received a brief introduction about the organization. They told us that the HKCEC is build on […]
In the morning the group met for another hiking tour. Since we did not return to the hotel in Longsheng again, the backpacks were packed a little fuller than for the hike the day before. The tour lead from the hotel we stayed the night through the rice terraces to a distant village. During the […]
China has many faces – in order to get an impression of the life in China outside the big cities we travelled to a county called Longsheng. In comparison to crowded and overloaded metropolis Beijing and Shanghai, the region of Guilin offers a quiet and relaxing atmosphere wihout any smog and skyscrapers. We could not […]
Today we were invited to the Novartis Research facility in Shanghai and shortly after left for the airport and the next destination in our trip: Guilin. Even though we felt excited to see what else China has to offer, the faces in the bus this morning betrayed that many of us would not mind staying […]
