This afternoon, i went to see a new client. Discussing the concept and VM plan for the shop. everything was normal except one thing .. the conversation. We started greeting and introducing ourselves in English. 5 minutes after that, he spoke to me in Cantonese. At the end of the meeting, we were speaking in Mandarin. What a journey. It's like meeting different people from different places in the short 30 minutes meeting. Luckily i still can handle the languages. Thanks to all my busy body attitude since young. So i can speak a few languages as well as dialects. I got better position / job offer becos of that 'talent' as well. :)
I can speak English, BM, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hakka & Hokkien. And some simple basic Japanese ... yamaaaaaaaaateeeeeeee!!!! hahaha.
What about you?
