Invitation Letter

Chengdu is a very interesting city, I love it here. I think of it as my second home, and it will be wonderful for you.

Bernie and his wife Lulu run a flower cafe in Dujiangyan. Every morning at about 10 a.m., the couple would come to the store to start the day's preparations. Lulu does the gardening, Bernie sets the tables. The aroma of fresh flowers and freshly ground coffee blend together, making the air filled with a unique sweet taste. The store plays light and rhythmic jazz, Bernie and his wife inadvertently make eye contact, and there is always love flowing.

"We've been together for 10 years. He fell in love with Dujiangyan the first time he came here and has been living there for more than a year now." Dujiangyan people Lulu told reporters. Bernie worked for HSBC while in Australia. Because of love and love for Dujiangyan, he gave up considerable income and came to Dujiangyan to start a business.

After tasting various Dujiangyan specialties, Bernie felt that their shop was a bit boring to sell only coffee and should try to sell some food so that guests who came to the store could taste the food of Australia. So he made a special trip back to Melbourne to learn how to make pizza for eight months. The pizza he makes is so complicated that it takes 48 hours to make the dough. Bernie, a former banker with a gold collar, rolled up his shirt sleeves and put on an apron to become a pizza chef.

Talking about the choice and the change now, Bernie said that he does not regret coming to Dujiangyan at all. He enjoys his life now. For the future, the couple wants to stay in Dujiangyan. Soon Bernie's family will also come to Dujiangyan. He will take them to see giant pandas and taste delicious griddle. I believe they will fall in love with Dujiangyan just like him.
