Episode 4: Rose Lu

We loved interviewing Rose - she was honest, open and full of surprises. We discuss her book "All Who Live on Islands", she shares stories of her upbringing growing up in Auckland, Whanganui, Palmerston North, Christchurch, then eventually settling in Wellington. And how learning Chinese has helped her learn more about the culture.
