Yan graduated university and entered the workforce back home in China but, unable to shake an urge to live abroad, she moved to Fukuoka 12 years ago. She took up her current post at the convention bureau in 2010, where the aim is to enhance the urban appeal of Fukuoka while disseminating tourism information. With the influx of cruise ships from China recently Yan has become even busier. One of her personal goals is to visit some port cities outside of Fukuoka to gain perspective and insights to help her satisfy visitors even more. To those visiting Fukuoka, she recommends a trip to Kushida Shrine, Tochoji Temple, and a traditional Japanese meal of \u201ckaiseki ryori\u201d. Yan loves Fukuoka, saying it\u2019s a compact city which is fun and easy to walk around, and she vows to keep trying her best to share Fukuoka\u2019s best points with travellers of the world."}
