In this episode of Mandarin Mama Chitchat, we had a fascinating conversation with Maria, a Polish mother who has been living in Taiwan for the past eight years. Maria shared her initial dislike for Taiwan, stemming from her assumption that it would be similar to China due to her previous internship experience there. However, she soon discovered that Taiwan is a unique country with distinct food, people, and culture. Maria discussed her journey of studying in Taiwan and gradually learning to appreciate the country and its rich cultural heritage. She also opened up about her challenging experiences with Taiwanese men, having gone through four heartbreaking relationships before finding true love and trust in her husband. Lastly, we delved into Maria's passion for preserving her Polish culture and language, and her efforts to pass them on to her children. Join us for this enlightening conversation about cross-cultural experiences and the power of love and resilience.
