In this episode of The Language Vlog Podcast, we discuss airports that have carpeted floors and how many airports (and train stations) in China have opted for granite tiles instead. We look at a Ukrainian New Year's tradition from childhood. And we also look at some of the reasons why Steve came to China, what makes him stay, and what would make him leave.
