Whether at the airport, on the train or at home, we just love to boil water and drink hot water! My parents especially couldn't understand that Americans like to drink ice water. In the Chinese perception, drinking ice water will make your stomach uncomfortable and even make you sick! In addition, Chinese girls like to use hot water bags and drink hot water when they have their "big aunt" (meaning to have period) or have menstrual pain. Hot water is really important to us! ----------------- 2022-02-2815 min

Where is the best place to go on a first date with someone you met on Tinder? What are our experiences and tips on using Tinder? What do we look for in a guy we want to call? Let's talk to Sissi today about this private and "a bit embarrassing" topic. Years ago, dating apps in China had a reputation of being basically for "booty call". But in the past few years, more and more young people are too busy at work and there are no other channels to meet new friends of the opposite sex other than colleagues, so dating apps are becoming more and more common, and the negative perception of dating apps seems to be slowly changing! ...2021-09-0518 min

Today, let's compare the workplace culture in China and foreign countries. There are many kinds of enterprises in China, broadly speaking, state-owned enterprises, foreign enterprises and private enterprises. The culture of different companies is not the same, so you can't generalize. But Cameron and I tried to summarize three points: First, the hierarchical culture in Chinese state-owned enterprises is still relatively relevant, while private and foreign enterprises are becoming flatter and flatter. Secondly, the work pressure in Chinese private companies is very high. There are very few annual leave, and they are afraid to tak...2021-08-3019 min

But I have never worked on a farm or in nature. So I was particularly envious of Vigil for having his own piece of land, fish pond, and building his own house on Canary Island, living a self-sufficient, environmentally friendly life!

瞎扯学中文 Convo ChineseEPISODE 1 | Trailer - 我是谁？为什么我要做这个podcast？ Hello大家好！欢迎大家来到我们瞎扯学中文的podcast第一期，那也是我们 podcast的一个小小的Trailer。我的名字叫Joanne，我也有很多朋友叫我囧安。囧安是我的英语名字Joanne的一个中文音译。我创造 podcast的初衷是希望给中等水平左右的中文学习的学习者、外国朋友们，一个比较自然的日常对话，这么一个语言学习环境。我自己本身也是学习了很多门语言，是一个学习语言的爱好者。我大概从小学的时候开始学英语，然后七八年前学习了西班牙语，一年多以前学习德语，然后现在正在学法语。我自己对于学语言也有一些心得，我也认识了周围很多学习中文的朋友。大家都说中文很难学，特别是语音语调，汉字的书写也非常困难。但是我觉得学了很多的语言的话，其实技巧和经验最终都是一样的，都是需要把自己沉浸在目标语言的学习的环境当中。对我自己而言，我我觉得非常有用的一点是听podcast，特别是听30分钟到40分钟这样比较长时间，而且是自然的日常的交流和对话。这样的话比较有助于能够能够学习到比较自然的真实的日常用语，而且听起来也不会太无聊。所以我自己在语言学习的过程当中，我的德语和法语都是听像这样30~40分钟日常对话交流的podcast，然后对我的水平提高非常的有帮助。但是我的很多中文学习的外国朋友和我反映说，在中文的市场上并没有这样子一款podcast。所以我就想这个也不是特别困难，我也是第一次入门做 podcast，但是我自己认为我的普通话说的还是比较标准的。我觉得我可以抽一些时间，每周或者每个月至少更新几次，希望我的宏图伟志不要半途而废。那今天我就短短的录一期trailer。下一期的话，我会准备邀请一个朋友来和我就聊一些生活当中的琐事。无论是我们日常生活中的困惑开心的事，或者是可能会聊到时事，新闻，政治都可能。我的目的就是为大家创造一个非常自然的，有趣的语言学习环境。那就说到这里了，我们下一次正式的节目再见！Hello everyone! Welcome everyone to the first issue of our podcast about learning Chinese. It is also a little Trailer of our podcast.My name is Joanne, and many of my friends call me 囧安. 囧安 is a Chinese translation of the pronounciation of my English name Joanne. My original intention for creating podcasts was to provide a more natural daily conversation and a language learning environment for middle-level Chinese learners and my foreign friends.I myself have learned a lot of languages, and I am a lover of language learning. I probably started learning English when I was in elementary school, then I learned Spanish seven or eight years ago, I learned German more than a year ago, and now I am learning French.I also have some experience in learning languages. I also know many friends around me who are learning Chinese. Everyone says that Chinese is difficult to learn, especially the pronunciation and intonation, and the writing of Chinese characters is also very difficult. But I feel that if I learn a lot of languages, the skills and experience are ultimately the same, and I need to immerse myself in the learning environment of the target language.For myself, one thing I think is very useful is listening to podcasts, especially listening to the podcast for a long time like 30 to 40 minutes, and it is natural daily communication and dialogue. In this way, it is more helpful to be able to learn more natural and true everyday language, and it will not sound too boring.So in the process of my own language learning for German and French, I also listened to podcasts of 30 to 40 minutes long daily dialogue and communication. It is very helpful to improve my language level. However, many of my foreign friends 2021-04-2703 min
