My name is Paul Rochon. I’m a doctor in cognitive science. I run a company about health management here in Beijing in Chaoyang.

We do health consulting, so that means we take care of people’s feelings.

The international care here in Chaoyang is very well-developed, actually, there are a lot of international hospitals, as well as a lot of public hospitals, where people are doing a very good job.

 

I have been living in Chaoyang, Beijing for 17 years, I feel Chaoyang is a very multicultural space, and it’s a big mix of different styles of people and styles of art, you have everything in Chaoyang at the same time.

You have the old style, you have the very like a building style for the CBD, you have the bar area, you have the fashion area, you have the park area.

It’s always a good moment to feel life first and to see people taking time for themselves.

Sometimes I go to the park, I can just sit on a bench and watch people passing, feeling the way that they communicate with each other, and the energies they have around them.

And after the park, you can just go to do the everyday things, you will go to the market, you will choose different fruit, and different vegetables, and you see what the people do and you try to do the same as them.

There is another reason why I’m staying because I find love.

Remarkably, Beijing has been able to host the Summer Olympics and Winter Olympics.

I feel when the city starts to host the Olympics, everybody is a part of something bigger than them.

I feel that after the Olympics, the people keep that inside of them, they have been a part of something big.

The Olympics already started. France and China are amazing nations in sport, I wish them a very good time in Paris and a very successful Olympics.
