In Bij Gin in Beijing de podcast neem ik je mee in mijn nieuwe leven in China als “expatvrouw” en in de Chinese cultuur. Ik had een tijdje geleden niet gedacht dat ik mijn baan zou opzeggen voor die van mijn partner. Totdat hij zei diplomaat te willen worden in China, waar ik als “partner van” niet zomaar mag werken. Wat nu…?!
Een podcast over het pauzeren van je eigen carrière voor die van je partner en over het dagelijks leven in China. Een land dat elke dag in het nieuws is, maar waar sinds de pandemie de deur praktisch op slot zit. Juist daarom wil ik verhalen uit China vertellen.
