My friends may have heard that 2017 is the year of China-Australia Tourism. Both China and Australia have held various official celebrations, and major airlines have also launched diving fares. It is easy for onlookers to travel to and from China. In 2017, Chinese visitors to Australia reached a new record high-figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (Australian Bureau of Statistics) in May show that Chinese visitors to Australia will exceed that of New Zealand. Meanwhile, a recent report by (Australia China Business Council), Australia's China Business Council, shows that Chinese visitors to Australia will quadruple in the foreseeable future, from 1 million last year to 3.3 million in 2026. My countrymen, do you want to be so fierce? The report also points out that one of the many problems faced by Chinese tourists is finding ways to find directions. .)
"the Chinese market is growing at an unprecedented rate and on an unprecedented scale," said John O'Sullivan, executive director of (Tourism Australia), Australia's Tourism Board. By 2020, 42% of Australia's visitors will be Chinese. "
In this way, more people will get lost on the trip to Australia (sweat … .) Of course, the lack of language is the first to bear the brunt of the problem. In fact, travel sharing software Uber is popular with international travelers for its cash-free transactions and its compatibility with local languages. Many conveniences make it easier for our countrymen to find their way. Mom, don't worry about me anymore. I'm lost!
Sydney's foodies can quickly locate Fish Market and food hotspots; Melbourne's friends can easily lock down Chadstone Shopping Centre's brisk hands!
The driver interviewed Steven from Shanghai, who has lived in Australia for 14 years, and now lives in Sydney, where he became a co-owner of Uber last year. Speaking of the upsurge in Chinese travel to Australia, Steven is very excited, said that during the October period will be met with 5 to 6 people in Uber, to meet the motherland's relatives, the most frequent places are Sydney Fish Market and opera house. And careful, he found that many Chinese are free-going tourists, most people get off the plane will use Uber taxi. They are very happy to see the co-owners who can speak Chinese. So I'm both a driver and a tour guide, sharing the fun, good-looking, and providing them with some travel advice.
"Chinese people are curious about Uber co-owners," Steven added. First of all, although they are good at using taxi-hailing software, many Chinese tourists will ask how to pay because of the difference between Uber and domestic payment. Secondly, they will talk to me about living in Australia and realize that this is the real life of the Chinese post-80s in Australia. Compared with the domestic, we are more busy and difficult, but also very substantial. "
