Ep 50: Steph: Me in Taiwan (blog); February 14, 2004 (recorded July 29, 2017)

Summary:   In this episode I read from a Me in Taiwan blog post I wrote on February 14, 2004 from Tainan, Taiwan and react to it so many years later on July 29, 2017 from Shanghai, China. This is a very hungry episode: at 3 months into my expat experience in Taiwan I was hungry for food and knowledge. On the food side it was coffee and sweet potatoes, which are things I still seek out while living in Shanghai. I was also hungry for language knowledge. Something that started to intrigue me then as a new TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) teacher and still does today is how time is conveyed in Mandarin Chinese. I have even more answers today than in this 2017 episode, thanks to a few of the guests on my Mandarin Chinese podcast, Changing Scripts (check out both Jeremy Tiang’s this season and look out for Tanya’s episode in the next season for some helpful insights into this). Would love to hear from you!
