(240108) -- HAIKOU, Jan. 8, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Marian Deborah Rosenberg thumbs a book she translated about Tour of Hainan Cycling Race in Haikou, south China's Hainan Province, Dec. 8, 2023. Rosenberg, a 42-year-old American, has considered the province her second hometown. Her story with Hainan began in 2004 after an accident which left her right leg disabled years ago. Drawn to the sea and warm weather, Rosenberg moved to China's island province Hainan for recuperation. Since then, Rosenberg has got a new leap on life with multiple roles such as cycling enthusiast, translator, and vlogger. In terms of the cycling, Rosenberg embarked on a journey in 2008, cycling 77 days from Hainan to Beijing to witness the grandeur of the Beijing Olympics. Rosenberg's passion for cycling has persisted ever since, with two cycling trips annually. Her career in translation could also be traced back to her passion for cycling. In 2006, while studying Chinese at Hainan University, she was hired as a translator during the Tour
