Description
Yuyan: I'm from Wuxi, China. I just finished my Masters' study in Spanish in Vermont and have been traveling in Latin America since September 2022. I'm a Spanish teacher and a passionate language learner. In addition to my passion about Hispanic language and culture, I have also learnt some French, Portuguese, Japanese and just recently started German, all of which I would love to practice. I also teach Mandarin. Culture is a broad concept, but I can say that I'm most excited about food. Everywhere I travel to, I will explore local markets to learn about new local ingredients, try local dishes and try to learn some recipes. I can talk about food all day and I love to cook for people.
I started gardening this year (in 2022) and immediately fell in love with it, especially with composting. I love the process and science of transforming waste into precious black gold, and then growing food from that. It's just fascinating. Together with gardening I started to do woodwork and enjoy very much turning pieces of wood into useful furniture for the house.Interests
