Award winning podcast* 🥈. Talking about life as a British born Chinese (BBC)/British Asian. The struggles that I've had to deal with whilst growing up in my mum and dad's takeaway in the 1980s/1990s. My parents are immigrants from HK/China and moved to the UK when they were teenagers. I was brought up being Chinese at home and English when I was outside of home - it felt confusing at the time as I couldn't find a sense of belonging. But now I am much older, I am proud of my Chinese heritage and I am proud to be British. I just want to share my story with people.* Silver award at British Podcast Awards 2022 in 'Moment of the Year' category.

S2 Ep7: 🦁Lion dancing with Pak Me Lo Hau Martial Arts | LNY special 🧧🐯

🧧Happy Lunar New Year to everyone. In this episode I speak to Wai Kuen from Pak Mei Lo Hau Martial Arts Association. I have been following these guys since I started podcasting and I've been so fascinated in lion dancing and the story of why it's used during Chinese celebrations. For people who know me, you will know that I have a billion questions - and I had a billion questions on this topic. So thank goodness Wai Kuen was here to answer them all.

Thank you Wai Kuen for coming on the show. It was so amazing to hear the history of lion dancing and listening to how your addiction for lion dancing started at such a young age.

Anyone new to my shows. I have an instagram page too - check it out Chinese Chippy Girl. Gimme a follow, gimme some comments, leave me a message, spread the word, leave me a review on Apple pod (if you're listening on that). JUST TELL EVERYONE TO LISTEN YEAH!!💜
