  What does it really take to build a life, career, and sense of purpose far away from home?In this episode, we sit down with Remy, a Kenyan who has spent nearly 10 years in China, to talk about his unexpected journey from working in aviation to becoming a student, building a career, and learning how opportunities often come from the people, skills, and experiences we overlook.We explore the reality of studying and working abroad, preparing for life after university, networking, financial discipline, procrastination, relationships, personal growth, and what success actually means.Remy also shares how volunteering, sports, friendships, and simply putting yourself in the right environments opened doors he never planned for. The conversation becomes a reminder that sometimes your hobbies, talents, and connections can create opportunities you never imagined.We also get into some thought-provoking hot takes:• Are university degrees becoming less valuable compared to skills and experience?• Should you turn your passion into a career?• Is being too comfortable one of the biggest enemies of success?• How important is networking for students?• Should couples discuss their past relationships?• How does living abroad change your identity and relationship with home?This episode is for students, young professionals, international students, and anyone trying to figure out what comes next in life.Sometimes you don’t need to have everything figured out—you just need to keep learning, meeting people, developing your skills, and being open to unexpected opportunities.Watch until the end and let us know in the comments:Do you think skills and experience are becoming more valuable than a university degree?And would you rather build a career around your passion or keep passion and work separate?Subscribe for more honest conversations about university life, careers, relationships, personal growth, and life abroad.00:00 Episode Highlights03:17 Viewer Disclaimer04:04 Welcome to the Episode05:21 Getting to Know Remy07:33 Meet Remy – 10 Years in China08:19 From Aviation in Kenya to Studying in China09:20 How Remy Unexpectedly Ended Up in China12:34 His Original Dream of Becoming a Pilot13:52 Life After Graduation14:19 Why You Should Plan Before Graduating16:20 Figuring Out Your Career Path19:22 Does Speaking Chinese Help You Find Work?20:44 Is the Dream of Becoming a Pilot Still Alive?22:44 Looking Back After 10 Years in China23:50 Going From Working Professional Back to Student26:20 How Work Experience Changes Your Mindset31:22 Where Feels More Like Home – Kenya or China?32:49 How Living in China Changed Him34:51 Why Family Still Sees the Old Version of You36:11 Going Back Home After Years of Independence38:19 Why Parents Will Always Treat You Like Their Child42:28 How Networking Changed Remy’s Life43:14 Advice for University Students Who Stay in Their Rooms45:51 Why You Need to Go Out and Meet People47:53 Turning Hobbies Into Unexpected Opportunities50:00 Can Your Skills and Hobbies Make You Money?52:05 Procrastination & Believing in Yourself53:25 Sometimes You Have to Say “Yes” Before You’re Ready54:41 How a Random Skill Created a Job Opportunity57:13 Funny School Story & Hidden Talents1:00:26 Money Management as a University Student1:02:24 How to Budget Your Money1:04:17 Is Your Current Job Related to Your Degree?1:04:33 What Does Success Actually Mean?1:06:36 What Should Young People Start Doing Earlier?1:07:13 Why Being Too Comfortable Can Hold You Back1:17:31 Living on the Edge & Trying New ExperiencesWatch until the end and let us know:Would you choose love if cultural differences made the relationship difficult? ❤️🌍👍 If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to Like, Subscribe, and turn on notifications for more honest conversations from University Blog 360.📩 Want to be featured on our podcast or collaborate with us?Email: [email protected]
