  • EP 24| old-school laundry day on an Island

    Transcript of this episode:⁠⁠ https://ko-fi.com/s/182e4aa769

    I'm currently living on an island in Vietnam.

    Living on an island means living a little differently.

    We don’t have a washing machine here, so I’m going back to the old-school way of doing laundry.

    This experience reminds me of my childhood, when I used to wash clothes by hand with my grandma.

    In this video, you can learn Mandarin Chinese through real-life moments and simple routines.

    Few Key Vocabularies from the video:
    洗衣服 (wash clothes)
    洗衣粉 (laundry powder)
    刷子 (brush)
    擰乾 (wring dry)
    晾衣服 (hang clothes)
