“来中国这么久，还是第一次包粽子，很好玩”
“I’ve been in China for a long time, but this is my first time to make zongzi. It’s a lot of fun!”
喜迎端午节，老外HERE联合成都高新区创新创业服务中心，成都高新公安分局出入境管理大队，中国成都人力资源产业园（高新区），棕榈泉费尔蒙酒店、高新区人力资源协会，分别在本周四和周五举办了两场以“包粽子”为主题的文化体验活动。
Dragon Boat Festival celebrations kicked-off a few days early this week, with two thrilling ‘zongzi’ dumpling-wrapping events held on Thursday and Friday.

现场气氛火热，笑声不断。两天的活动报名者来自美国、英国、法国、德国、澳大利亚、加拿大、新西兰、泰国、日本、巴基斯坦、马来西亚、伊朗、荷兰、南非、厄瓜多尔、印度在内15个国家的共40多外籍人士参加。
Fun and laughs were had all round as hands were covered in sticky rice and the scent of freshly steamed dumplings wafted through the air. Over the two days more than 40 guests from over 15 different countries attended, including the UK, France, Thailand, Pakistan, USA, Germany, India, Australia, Iran, South Africa, the Netherlands, Japan, New Zealand, Canada, Ecuador and beyond!

在PitStop外籍人士创新创业之家，举行的中西合璧“包粽子”和DIY裱花蛋糕，将中国传统和西式美食结合起来。 在人力资源产业园举行的包粽子大赛，由费尔蒙酒店主厨进行包粽子教学，再分队进行包粽子比赛，将大家对端午的热情带动了起来。
At PitStop, the Foreigners’ Home of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Chinese and international friends worked together to wrap up their dumplings as well as decorate cakes. It was a wonderful combination of traditional Chinese and Western foods.
In the Human Resources Service Industrial Park (HRSIP), the zongzi-wrapping competition delighted attendees, and guests left not only with their very own handmade dumplings, but some also with brilliant prizes from the Fairmont Hotel.
特别感谢各位合作小伙伴一起做了这样精彩有趣的文化交流活动，让中国人和在成都生活的外籍人才共同感受中国传统文化，我们也希望节日的气氛和祝福能借此传递给所有人
Thank you to everyone for coming together on such a wonderful cultural exchange activity. We hope that Chinese and foreigners alike living in Chengdu can find common ground and friendship via Chinese traditional culture.
