Post Quarantine Pickup - Chinese Vocabulary

Whether you’re stuck in quarantine in China, stuck at home like the rest of the world, or just trying to get your life back to normal. We understand you’re probably going stir crazy these days. Week one went from being super productive to now starting wine time at 11 AM. We don’t blame you, it’s crazy times now. But we’re here to help. For the next few weeks, we’ll try to help you to stay (relatively) sane with recommendations from workouts to educational classes, to cooking tips. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

This week we thought we’d give you some essential vocab and help work those brain muscles in case you’ve lost count of all the days and cabin fever is setting in. Or maybe you’re just feeling a little under the weather. Remember to wash your hands and stay safe and healthy everyone!
