Daniel is an American hobo freelancer from California. Lisa is a Chinese university student from Shanghai. Together they bring harmony across the Pacific Ocean and around the world by teaching Chinese Mandarin.
My name is Daniel. I was born and raised in California, but I lived in Taiwan a few years and I’m currently staying in Shanghai. My Mandarin Chinese pronunciation and grammar are basically fine, however I can’t read or write, and I lack the vocabulary to effectively communicate with people in China. Right now, with Lisa’s help, I’m learning Chinese to fix that. Whatever I learn, I will post here and share with you.
