Thanks for being here. This podcast is where stories, language, and connection meet. Whether you’re here to learn Chinese, find calm, or feel less alone—you belong. I’m so grateful you’re listening.

I started this because I believe Chinese is a language for everyone—no matter your budget, your level, or where you’re tuning in from. That’s why every episode has content for beginners, advanced learners, and everyone in between: learning should be open, not exclusive.

☕️ Want to keep this going?

• For show transcripts (with Pinyin + English) and exclusive content, join my Patreon, every member helps keep these free podcasts alive, so learners worldwide can explore Chinese language for free.
• To buy me a coffee, visit my Ko-fi, 20% of every contribution helps feed homeless animals, while 80% keeps my free podcasts going!

No matter how you choose to help—whether caring for furry friends or sharing language with the world—you’re making a meaningful difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being part of this journey!
