Nee's Language Blog

A chef showing Tanzanian beer and Swahili phrasebook Having had so much fun on the previous meeting, I joined the event again for the second time which took place on Saturday, April 25th. The first meeting was awesome, but the second one was even more awesome. Not only we had more participants, but we also had a special language host.

I bet the majority of language learners from anywhere around the world must have heard about an event where language learners meet and converse in foreign languages, so-called Language Meetups. Me either, but I just joined my very first meetup yesterday! Don't know what holds me back from joining it before, anyway, I enjoyed it very much.

The first thing comes to my mind when I hear the word "Turkish" is the Turkish ice-cream vendor in Danshui 淡水, New Taipei City 新北市 in Taiwan 台灣. Danshui, or also written as "Tamsui", is a touristic destination located at Northern Taiwan and is reachable by the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) for about 30 minutes away from Taipei Main Station. What comes first to your mind when you hear the word "Turkish"?
