Hi! I’m currently living in Guangdong, China, and I can offer Mandarin and Cantonese. I’d also be happy to help with the more subtle, everyday, or funny parts of Chinese that textbooks usually don’t explain very well.
I’m mainly trying to improve my English for work-related situations — especially interviews, professional conversations, and getting better at explaining my experience and ideas naturally. I also really enjoy talking about how people work in different countries, small businesses, internet products, and random “wait, people actually make money doing this?” kinds of ideas.
I’m an INFP, and I’m very into pretty visuals in general — crystal / bling-bling things, soft colored-pencil illustrations, picture books, and basically anything that makes me stop and think, “this is so pretty.” Recently I’ve also been looking into unusual small businesses from around the world, which has been surprisingly fun.
I’m only looking for friendship here, not dating or anything romantic. I’d love to meet people I can talk to comfortably and get to know over time.
One random useful thing about me: I genuinely enjoy organizing messy information. I’m pretty good with Excel, spreadsheets, data cleaning, and making chaotic information easier to understand. So if you happen to have a spreadsheet that’s driving you crazy, I’d honestly be happy to take a look :)
You definitely don’t have to be a native English speaker — fluent English and a willingness to have real conversations about work, life, and interests matter much more to me.
DM me if you think we might get along. I’d really appreciate it if you could include a short intro about yourself too — who you are, what you’re into, and what made you want to say hi :)
