🇹🇼 My next Level Up & Connect Premier Coaching Circle is opening for registration. This small circle is for learners who want to have deeper, meaningful conversations in Taiwanese Mandarin, whether with Taiwanese family and friends, colleagues, or new connections. Heritage learners are especially welcome, and so is anyone ready to take their Mandarin to the next level. (traveling more deeply, living in Taiwan, starting a new career, learning for your children or spouse...) Language is beautiful that way. :) Register by Nov 5 here.

🇹🇼 Hope this episode can help you learn new vocab and improve Taiwanese Mandarin listening and speaking. Transcripts (Ch & Eng) on my blog. It's free. For pinyin and zhuyin version, check out my patreon.

今天這集很私密：一個生重病的九歲小女孩許願去東京迪士尼的真實故事。這個小女孩就是我。It's a very personal episode: the true story of a nine-year-old girl who got seriously ill and made a wish to go to Tokyo Disneyland. I'm her.

這集我邀請喜願協會（Make-A-Wish Taiwan）志工 Wendy，一起回到我九歲那年，聊聊生病、住院化療、許願，還有最後圓夢的旅程。(真的很感恩)

In this episode, I'm joined by Wendy, a Make-A-Wish Taiwan volunteer, as we look back on that year. We talk about illness, chemotherapy, children's hospital life, and the wish that finally came true. (so grateful!)

我們的對話很適合給中級程度的臺灣華語學生練習。包含醫院、生病治療、志工、相關的實用詞彙。字稿（中英文、注音拼音）已公開在 Patreon，你可以下載邊聽邊學。

Great for intermediate Taiwanese Mandarin learners. It's a real, unscripted conversation practice with vocabulary around hospitals, illness, and volunteering. Full transcript (Chinese/English with zhuyin/pinyin) is free on Patreon HERE. Learners can study while listening this episode.
