How I Got Here
My journey to MACD at WSA/UoS
A map is a symbolic depiction emphasising relationships between elements of some space, such as objects, regions, or themes... Although most commonly used to depict geography, maps may represent any space, real or imagined, without regard to context or scale. (Adapted from Wikipedia: Map)
A journey is literally literally made between two or more geographical locations. There is order or sequentially linked. For example, journey of life, journey to happiness, journey to Olympic gold, journey of discovery, the road to freedom.

Picture 2. Lijie's Design Hand Sketching
In this design I drew a 'google map in tablet‘, there are some information about my birthplace, my hobbies, and my education experiences, etc.
I planed to spread my journey from China to United Kingdom. the contents mainly focus on two parts, my education experiences and my hobbies. Since my education experiences are decided the course of my life and help me to form my life values, those education experiences are extremely an important part of my life. And the hobbies could reflect my personality. That is why I want to mainly reflect these two details.
Study in the United Kingdom is a totally special experience for me, so I believe I will have a more better experience in this country, and inexhaustibly all the better experiences in the future.

How I got here
LJ's journey to MACD
The blue path is the letters of my family name "Wang", and the white road is the letters of my given name "LIJIE".
The start of the 'Wang' is Dandong that the city in Liaoning province where I was born in China.
as you could see a bridge next to the Chinese flag is called ‘Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge’, It is a landmark building in my hometown. Than you could some images about my hobbies and education experiences, study in University of Southampton is my second master degree. I believe that I will have more rich and good life experiences in the future.
