Participation
in Chinese listening challenge, January 2024
120 minutes 2.0h
I clocked a fair few hours in this challenge, but most where while doing other things. Since last May's listening challenge, I started listening regularly to radio and podcasts though, and can feel some progress.
Had I not focused on listening though, I would have read more this month.
Thus I started wondering about a monthly challenge including two skills.
In any case, thanks for sharing resources, I added a fair few things to my list this month.

Hello, Tikaf. I tried to go to imagin8.com but got redirected to BriteLabs, an agency for digital marketing. I wanted to see if I could understand any of the audiobook.
