Our story

Our founders met in France. When we just arrived in France without speaking a word of French, our life was inconvenient. We could not imagine that it is not easy to buy a bus ticket. We encounter difficulties in different aspects of daily life in France. Nothing went smoothly, until, we’ve started to speak some words in French. Then, we found out that French people are extremely friendly and helpful when we speak some French words even with our foreigner accents, even we could not speak the whole sentence, even we were making many grammatical mistakes.

We see it is how helpful and useful to learn some basic of another languages. It will open a new door of one’s world. Instead of mastering a language, just some words would already give you a completely different experience.

It is the best way to connect with new people if you can speak some words in their languages, no matter how good you can pronounce.
