He explained that the choice of Wuxi as his home in China was made based on a survey of 15 Chinese cities. The survey, covering environment, major industry, transportation, geography, finance, education facilities, and other key elements of a city, showed that Wuxi is one of the best cities in China.
Peter also said, "Wuxi has a heartbeat. Wuxi is what I call a bedroom community. It is a city where people live and people call it home, and it still has a spirit of 'people in Wuxi love Wuxi'. And it makes it different from many other cities."
After arriving at Wuxi, Peter continued his volunteering service here because he considers volunteering an important part of life.
He has hosted an English corner twice a week for free at the Wuxi Library and a local coffee shop for more than a decade.
