听众朋友你们好，欢迎来到茶时话中文，我是Penny。这是一个纯中文话题节目，我来和你用中文聊聊生活中有意思的话题，同时学习一些汉语词汇。让我们一边喝茶一边聊起来吧。

不知道大家是否了解，在中国，这个冬天，热带的海南三亚遇到了一个强劲的竞争对手，那就是东北的哈尔滨。

哈尔滨宏大壮丽的冰雪节，吸引了全国各地的游客争相前往游玩。这其中，南方的朋友们被亲切地称呼为“南方小土豆”。他们穿羽绒服的可爱样子，在大家眼中就像是胖乎乎的“小土豆”，在哈尔滨受到了极其热情的欢迎。

哈尔滨人的热情，让游客们赞不绝口，火遍了中国的互联网。没有见过雪的“南方小土豆”们满足了心愿，哈尔滨人的盛情款待，也使得哈尔滨的城市形象大大提高了。

媒体说，这真是一场双向奔赴，互相成就呀。

好了，希望你喜欢今天的内容，这里是茶时话中文，我是Penny，我们下次见。

Expression française "voir midi à sa porte"

昼ごはんは、たいてい家で一人で食べています。かんたんです。おにぎり１こと、インスタントのみそしるだけのときもあります。でも、たまには、外で他の人と食べたくなります。そこで、出かけてきたんですが、そこは働かなければ食べさせてもらえないところでした！地元のゲストハウスで経験した、２日間の「食」の経験、お聞きください。

Your Digital Nomad Journey

The allure of remote work and constant travel beckons. But trading your cubicle for a co-working space in Bali requires planning. Here's how to embark on your digital nomad adventure:

1. Skill Up & Find Your Niche: Can your talents translate to remote work?  Web developers, writers, and virtual assistants are in high demand. Hone your skills and identify a niche market you can serve virtually.

2.  Embrace Remote Work:  Many traditional jobs now offer remote options.  Discuss flexibility with your employer or explore remote work platforms. If freelancing, build a strong portfolio and secure clients before taking the leap.

3.  Financials: Be Ruthless:  Living on the road can be surprisingly affordable, but research your desired destinations.  Factor in visas, co-living, and travel costs.  Build a healthy savings cushion to cover any hiccups.

4.  Tech is Your Lifeline: Invest in reliable equipment - a sturdy laptop, noise-cancelling headphones, and a universal adapter are crucial.  Don't forget secure cloud storage and a VPN for safe internet access on the go.

5.  Master Time Zones:  Working across continents requires discipline.  Schedule calls considering time zone differences and utilize tools like calendar apps to avoid confusion.

6.  Embrace Community:  Combat loneliness by joining online digital nomad communities and co-working spaces in your destinations.  These connections are invaluable for support and advice.

7.  Be Flexible & Adaptable:  Expect unexpected internet outages, cultural differences, and travel mishaps.  Maintain a positive attitude and problem-solving skills are key for a smooth journey.

Remember, the digital nomad life isn't all sunsets and beaches. It requires hard work, discipline, and a willingness to adapt. But for those seeking freedom and adventure, the rewards are endless.

In this episode we are going to learn 【Weather】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text.
