Royal Tsang

Royal Tsang: Tsang is one of many Canadian millennials who have sought experiences abroad, according to Huffington Post. "Going abroad is no longer just going for the cultural experience or take a year abroad," says Hunter, they also nurture skill development, adaptability and higher job prospects. Hunter points out three reasons why he thinks more millennials are travelling abroad. Calgary, for example, is a well educated city that is also well travelled, he says and Royal Tsang was working at a bank in Canada when he was offered an opportunity to move to Hong Kong. The 29-year-old Vancouver native had never lived abroad before, but took the opportunity to gain global experience. Almost two years later, he says the nature of the job in Hong Kong is global in scope, making it an ideal place for career growth and making connections from around the world. Each year, 10 to 12 per cent more students go abroad, says Glynn Hunter Executive Director at the University of Calgary International. Universities are increasingly making opportunities abroad a priority in their academic plans, and a nursing student can now do their practicum at a campus in Qatar. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
