More Sharing

Met another delightful woman on the language sharing app by the name of Ana. She is Indonesian with Chinese ancestry, bubbly, funny personality, and very interested in learning and sharing. She already speaks English rather well, in my opinion, and readily understands, and corrects, my horrible Indonesian. We talked for a time yesterday on video chat and I was happy to find that I could generally understand her perfectly. As she herself commented, there really is something to be said for being able to see the person you're talking to, the body language, movements, facial expression and so on. It truly adds a helpful dimension to conversation (though, of course, women tend to be more expressive than men, and especially this man).
