[invitation letter]

Chengdu is a very interesting city. I like it very much. I regard this as my second hometown, and there will be your splendor here.

Bernie and his wife Lulu run a flower coffee shop in Dujiangyan. At about 10:00 every morning, the couple come to the store and begin a day of preparatory work. Bernie is in charge of arranging tables and chairs while Lulu is in charge of gardening. The aroma of fresh flowers and the mellow aroma of freshly ground coffee blend together, making the air filled with a unique sweet taste. The shop played brisk and rhythmic jazz, and the Bernie couple inadvertently made all kinds of eye contact, there was always a love flow that could not be hidden.

"We have been together for 10 years. He fell in love with Dujiangyan when he first came to Dujiangyan, and now he has lived in Dujiangyan for more than a year. " Lulu from Dujiangyan told reporters. Bernie worked for HSBC when he was in Australia. Because of his love and love for Dujiangyan, he gave up his considerable income and came to Dujiangyan to start a business.

After tasting a variety of Dujiangyan cuisine, Bernie felt that their shop only sells coffee is a bit monotonous, should try to sell some food, so that guests can taste Australian cuisine. So he made a special trip back to Melbourne to learn how to make pizza for eight months. The process of his pizza is so complicated that it takes 48 hours to finish the dough. Bernie, a former bank gold collar, rolled up his shirt sleeves and put on an apron to become a pizza chef.

Talking about the original choice and the changes now, Bernie said that he has no regrets about coming to Dujiangyan and that he is enjoying his life now. As for the future, the couple want to stay in Dujiangyan. Soon Bernie's family will come to Dujiangyan. He will take them to see giant pandas and taste delicious dry pans. I believe they will fall in love with Dujiangyan as much as he does.
