GUANGDE, June 1 (Xinhua) -- Four-year-old Maya Ivanou moved to China with her parents in 2023. The family settled in Dongting Town, home to the Yangtze River Delta International Equestrian Center. Maya's mother, Aleksandra Timofeeva, better known as Sasha, is an equestrian from Russia, and her father, Vasil Ivanou, is a coach from Belarus.
"A friend recommended a job for us here at the club. Since I lived in China before and felt great about it, our whole family decided to come," Sasha said.
Maya is now enjoying a happy childhood in China. At kindergarten, she learns Chinese and makes friends with local children.
