Hi! I am an American high school student trying to learn Chinese (Mandarin) for a career, and because of my interest in the language and culture. I am a reserved yet outgoing person in hopes to becoming a great business woman with goals of traveling the world and experiencing other cultures outside of mine and expanding my horizon.

    Vegetarian in China/Taiwan? Sorry I'm writing in English, I don't know enough Mandarin yet. I know writing in English isn't improving my writing skills in Mandarin... :/ So, I haven't been on here (italki) in ages and still don't know too much how this works. I was just thinking about food in China or Taiwan, and on a whelm decided to write something. I'm a vegetarian, and have read a couple of articles saying that it is difficult to be vegetarian or vegan in China. They made it seem like vegetarians and vegans were nonexistent in China! I wanted to know if that is true, and are there any vegetarian restaurants or shopping places that offer items made just for them? I know that there are places like that here (in America). So, just wondering...

    您好!我的名字是Briauna,我目前就读高中,我在美国生活我感到有点害羞,但将开放当我感觉很舒服。我学习变得更大胆,更直言不讳,因为我的职业选择绝对需要它!

    我正在学习中文,普通话,因为我想作为一个职业翻译,它在美国是非常有益的,我本来想学习日语,并参加了学校的1 / 2学期课程。我停下来学习日语,因为它不是在中国对美国非常有利,现在已经抓住了我的兴趣。我想了解中国文化和传统习俗。

    My name is Briauna, I am currently attending high school and am living in the U.S. I am a little shy but will open up when i feel comfortable. I am learning to become bolder and more outspoken because my career choice definitely requires it!

    I am learning Chinese, Mandarin because I want to be a translator as a career and it is very beneficial in the U.S. I originally wanted to learn Japanese and took a 1/2 semester course in school. I stopped learning Japanese because it is not very beneficial in the U.S. Chinese now has grabbed my interest. I would like to learn about the culture of the China and the traditions and customs.
