As most of us who endured the COVID-19 lockdown in China know, there aren’t many good reasons to leave for the moment. Some of us do not mind waiting it out until the rest of the world gets better, but many of us have an itch – and are dying to do something new! Therefore, we present you with a great opportunity to improve your Chinese and get up close with pandas by becoming a Panda Ambassador!
