前两个月在工作上和生活中经历了不同程度的不愉快瞬间，导致触发了我脑子里对于我是否正在经历一场“人际关系”的危机？

还好，最近通过真诚和平等的对话，让我逐渐打开心结，也让我意识到，以事物和人的本身的面貌去接受他们，并且对之产生相对应的期待值，或许对我本身来说是一件更容易，让自己压力更小，也相对更轻松的事。

由此，晶姐和我进行了一场深度的和彼此的对话，让我俩都受益匪浅。

既然“所有问题都涉及人际关系“（Alfred Adler - “Alle meine Gedanken und Sorgen sind die Gedanken und Sorgen von Beziehungen”），那么，愿我们最终都拥有被讨厌的勇气。共勉。

时光飞逝，岁月如梭。

三年前的今天，我由于感到某种existential crisis而觉得整个人非常空虚无助，然后我在没有任何规划的情况下开始了这档播客。三年之后，这档播客虽然是佛系更新，但是仍然在继续存在着，不得不说这也是一种坚持。

这次请来了播客创建的元老嘉宾Nelli一起来回顾这三年的过往，以及我俩过去两三年的经历和感受。我们两个都是纯纯的文科生，但是现在都在IT行业工作，不得不说真的是很奇妙的经历。

我们在这一集中一起来聊了一些我们各自那些尴尬的瞬间，然后我们意外地发现，我们对于“尴尬”的理解都不甚相同，之后由此更是引发了一轮深奥的讨论。

非常欢乐的一集，谢谢大家的分享！

By the time I've finished editing and publishing this episode, Carolyn has been on her 4-month world cruise trip for almost 3 months already.

She was my English teacher in an after-school program for half a year, when I was in high school back in the day.

Almost 2 decades have passed, and I'm still amazed by the fact that we're still in touch and have met multiple times in both China and Germany (hope we get to meet in Australia soon in the near future!)

I thought I had known a lot, or at least enough, about her, until she proved me wrong this time. I discovered so many things I didn't know about her!

She's a world traveler, she's a truck driver, and she is my friends. <3

We've known Christian and Mei for quite a few years so far, and in summer 2024, they finally had their wedding in China after a few postponements.

This is our first episode in German, and Christian shares with us his experience of being a foreigner in China, why he decided to learn Chinese and go to China among all choices available in the first place, and what he thinks of some stereotypes about China, Chinese people, and Chinese food in general.

大家聊的真的很开心，而且东北同胞真的是太能聊了，气氛贼棒！

We travelled to the north of Germany this past weekend to visit Nelli, during which we spontaneously talked about our personal experiences of integration in Germany as individuals.

And we also spontaneously decided to watch the new movie "Inside Out 2", which resonated with us and unexpectedly brought us to tears, especially considering Paul and I didn't even watch the first one.

In the end, we concluded that it's crucial to stay true to yourself and also allow yourself to feel all your emotions. In the end, you're each one of your emotions, and you're all of your emotions.

In this episode, Fei joined me to share our experiences of working in Germany.

As usual, we had no script, and it was surprising to see that we both reached the same conclusion: these days, except for a few highly specialized roles, it's increasingly important not only to be a good technical or professional fit but also to be a great cultural fit. Sometimes, the latter even outweighs the former.

We have a saying in Chinese, "要学会做事，但是更要学会做人", which translates to, "It's important to learn how to perform your tasks, but it's even more important to learn how to be a person." Navigating society is complex, and being a person can be multi-faceted, especially today.

Do you agree with our views? If you're working in Germany or any other country, what's your take on this?

In today's episode, we explore the intricate dynamics of friendship and the often overlooked relationship we have with ourselves. Joined by Mei and Jing (Vivienne), we navigate the complexities of friendship through different stages of our lives, particularly as Chinese living in Germany.

We've all had our own fair share of moments of solitude, where we've had to learn to spend time with ourselves, be our own friends, and deal with our own emotions, because friends keep coming into and leaving our lives. Sad but true, and it's not easy to tell them goodbye.

Ultimately, this episode serves as a gentle reminder to cherish the connections we have, while also recognizing the enduring friendship we cultivate with ourselves.
