Fuchsia Dunlop talks about her experience studying aboard in China. Specifically Sichuan where she fell in love with the food culture. She loved the food there so much she wanted to move there after her study was up and even attend a culinary course to study Sichuan cuisine.
My main takeaway is that people should be more open about food from other cultures. You don’t have to study aboard in a foreign country and do all that to really engulf yourself in that culture. However, do give their food a shot as you might just find something very pleasant.
I would definitely recommend this podcast to a friend or a classmate. The way Dunlop describes her experiences with such joy in her voice makes it a very enjoyable listen.
