The big question—should you learn Chinese, Japanese or Korean in 2025? Ha, as if I can choose between my peking roast duck, anime waifu or K-pop idols. If you have the same struggles as me, in this video I break down how to choose the right language for you, and also spill some polyglot insights to master one language—or even ALL three ;)

MISSION:
I'm on a journey to reconnect with my Asian roOTs by learning Chinese (& sometimes Japanese), talking about Asian culture, and just going through life as a British-Chinese.
