Podcast Description
Where foreigners meet foreigners in a foreign country and share lifestyles, curiosities, ideas, beliefs, stigmas, taboos, cultural traits and anything worth the chat!
The world is our home and it is up to us to explore it as we wish to, even though it meaning we will be away from family and friends for some time, and more often, extended periods of time. Loneliness can creep in like a close friend, and we find ourselves lost in the middle of the unfamiliar.
This is a safe space to build community and bring people from different places together with a common goal, connection and belonging.

Meet Carla, a “bella” fun Italian who I had the pleasure of meeting. She studied languages in the University of Naples, with focus on Chinese language. After a short trip to China back in 2002 she already knew she wanted to come back eventually, which happened in 2005. And without planning it, life had it set up for her to stay in China for good.
We share our love for languages and chat extensively about languages and her views on having a degree in Chinese language, as well as her take on the way technology is starting to influence jobs in the translation field.
Carla talks about when she first came to China over 20 years ago and how much the country has changed since then, specially this area of China. She literally saw Shenzhen become Shenzhen.
In this conversation you will listen to fun stories, good laughs and the real meaning of finding connection with people anywhere in the world. We dive into the struggles and the beauty of living in China, from raising kids to being away from family.
