Produktbeschreibung
This is for anyone who has ever felt lost in life, and thought they were the only one. The only one not knowing what to do. The only one struggling to choose a path.The only one behind in life. Because I have lost count of the many times I have felt this way in my 20s, only to find that the people around me were feeling the same. Over the past decade, I have lived in seven cities across three continents and changed careers from politics to tech and journalism. Farewell to my 20s is a collection of intimate stories and conversations with friends that offer a window into the different lives I have lived, and what I have learnt along the way: from leaving home to choosing a path and finding the courage to change when your present no longer fulfils you. I hope this book will remind you that being yourself is the most inspiring thing you can do, and that it is never too late to pursue the things you truly want to.Because it always seems impossible, until it's done.

Jing-Jing Hu was born in Heidelberg to Chinese parents who grew up in the Netherlands. She studied Politics, Philosophy, and Economics at the University of Manchester, and Global Governance and Diplomacy at the University of Oxford. Initially planning to become a diplomat, she spent a few years in the politics space in London and Beijing. Stuck in lockdown in 2020, she taught herself how to code and became a software engineer in Berlin. While trying to start her own venture, she launched "You Rice Me Up", a podcast about Asian Europeans from all walks of life. She also wrote articles published in Business Insider, Raconteur, and The Times. After unexpectedly losing her job in 2024, she decided to fully embrace her multi-passionate personality and pursue a portfolio career. "Farewell to my 20s" is her first book.
