From Russia with love
Maria, a 32-year-old from Vladivostok, Russia, has been working at Hunchun, a border city in northeast China's Jilin province, for four years.
After the Hunchun high-speed railway station began operating in September 2015, Maria, who speaks good Chinese, became a volunteer at the station, serving passengers with translation and travel tips. This year's Spring Festival travel rush is the first year that Maria is working at the high-speed rail station.
