As a cabin crew member of Xiamen Airlines, Zhao Di has been part of the company for more than six years.

Her hometown is in northern China, 3,000 km from Xiamen city. After graduating from college, she began working this far from her hometown.

Devoted at work, in turn she has progressed to the role of cabin manager. However, such devotion has meant that there was a time she didn't visit her parents for 18 months.

'I know I owe my family a lot, I don't have much time to spend with my parents' Zhao says.

This is her story.
