Learner Talks E17 | 在旧金山练着口语喝着茶，聊着物理冲着浪
We chatted with Carl, a Swedish audience member who’s been living in California for the past few years. How is living in the Bay Area helps him keep up his language skills? What music does he listen to in Chinese? And what is he studying in Physics in Berkley? If this podcast is helpful for you and you want to show your support, you can buy me a coffee here!
