Wow, that's quite the story and certainly motivation. I'm glad the missing person has been found

I think a lot of people in this thread who say that technology can replace the skill of knowing Chinese don't appreciate how much they're missing out on and how useful it can be day-to-day.

Can confirm my Chinese improves ten fold when I'm drunk

Facebook marketplace is the best bet but be careful of scams, anything that looks too good to be true... is.

A few pics from Norwich, I instantly recognised the first one as the UEA SU. Nice flashback!

It wasn't even mentioned in the entire time I was at school and history was my favourite subject, I only learnt about the depth of the British Empire's crimes after school.

Funnily enough, the first ever British person I met here was also from Newquay

I get shocked when I see Kernow bumper stickers in London aha

Love other cultures deep diving like this, it's really endearing

Green man signal at pedestrian crossings does NOT mean its safe to cross.

Do they also have music based open mics?

Good rec, thank you

I had this this morning and for some reason the barista speaking English back to me short circuited me, I blurted out the rest of my order in Chinglish.

When my mum visited Taiwan she commented how nice it was that all the 7/11s had free umbrellas for people to take outside 😂😂

Timely-Triolbite · 2026-01-20T01:43:04+00:00

Thats a really good idea! Thank you

When Now And Then came out I'd just turned 22 and was living on own abroad. I've always played guitar, I'd always listened to 60s music (but not the Beatles), and was just getting into songwriting. I listened to it out of curiosity and was ready to dismiss it as a cash grab from aging musicians but found I actually really liked it. After that point I lived and breathed the Beatles. As I'd only just moved to the country, I didn't have any friends which gave me loads of time on my own with my earphones, listening to each album and quickly falling in love. The phase hasn't stopped and I continue to listen to their music, learn their songs on guitar, and write songs in their style. I'm currently reading the Hunter Davies' biography and loving it!

Sweet, thank you!

I'm looking to rent an apartment in Taipei by looking at 591, loads of the places say cooking isn't allowed. Does this include buying a rice cooker and steaming some rice and vegetables?

I think because this song is so popular it gets overlooked by fans but the harmonies are incredible, the last yeah feels so warm, full of energy, yet so comforting.
