Show Notes

Summary of this interview in French is available in Episode 11

Today, I have a guest. Leanne is exactly the kind of person I have in mind when I record the podcast. That’s the strange thing about podcasting, I’m talking to you, but I don’t know who you are. Leanne is typically the person I imagine listening to it.

She is from Malaysia, so she grew up in a multicultural country surrounded by several languages. She went backpacking for a while after finishing her studies, crossed path with a man and eventually moved to France to be with him. She has been in France for almost ten years now. I’ve had countless conversations with her about what it feels like to be a foreigner and about the duality of nationalities. So, I said to her, let’s just switch the mike on and record some of it… Unfortunately, I didn’t plan it very well on the day that I recorded and the sound for my voice is quite poor. So, I edited out quite a bit of my questions, but in the end, it doesn’t matter, because we get to hear Leanne’s voice clearly and you’ll get to enjoy listening to her accent which I personally love.

Quick reminder, if you’re learning French, then go to my website connect2french.com Today’s episode is sponsored by Story Learning. Olly Richards just launched his new INTERMEDIATE French uncovered course! Finally! If you enjoy reading, then you’ll love the Story Learning courses, they are based on short stories and you get to learn the language within context. All the info are available on my website
