Travelling is a life-changing experience. Experiencing a different culture – the language, the food. We learn and gain so much from these experiences.

For UKGBCs Anna Hollyman, her time living in China influenced her greatly. She started to consider how our built environment impacts peoples health and well-being. In this video, hear more about Anna’s time abroad, and how that changed her outlook on buildings and infrastructure.
