Episode 32 of the Language Vlog podcast we talk about some of the essential APPs you need if you want to live in China (and some if you want to travel through the country). We also talk about finding a job overseas teaching English, be it in China or elsewhere, and how easy it can be to find a lead.

We also talk about the recent vlogs uploaded to the YouTube channel (@stevenslanguagevlog) which discuss Steven's first impressions of returning to the classroom and what he gets to see on his way to the university each and every day: really expensive houses.

Next, a throwback to high school and Latin studies with the book A Canticle for Leibowitz and what language would survive a nuclear holocaust?

Finally, a look at Beijing on the weekend as the city sees its first snowfall in the middle of March in a very long time. Climate change? Temperature fluctuation? Or just a one-off occurence to be appreciated and not judged too much?
