About
I'm Xiaoma, a polyglot who has studied dozens of languages. Until the age of 18 I grew up speaking exclusively English, and then I got the chance to learn Mandarin and live in Beijing for a year where I fell in love with Chinese food, language, and culture. This expanded my appetite to learn about cultures, foods, and languages from all around the world and now I share this passion with all of you!
