Ep 3: A Conversation with Liang Na (from China)
Show Notes

Welcome to Episode 3 of Forked Tongues!

In this episode I'm joined by Liang Na who, originally from China, is my first non-native English-speaking guest. Na was a little worried about her English level being good enough but she shouldn't have been. I'm sure you will be as impressed as I was, and maybe even somewhat jealous (as I was)... Na speaks three languages fluently!

Our conversation covers her first visit to France and first impressions of Paris, her move here years later; how she learned French - and her advice for you listeners; the joys of French and Chinese cuisine; raising children in two cultures; and lots more! (Even some classic Chinese poetry - in two languages!)

So I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did... The Forked Tongues podcast journey continues!

Thank you for listening,

Derek
