Pastimes and Tea: Recent Episodes
Danny Bav
A podcast where I interview friends and strangers about what motivates them, their hobbies and generally just uncovering stories about their experiences.
Robyn and I talk about how she moved over from South Africa to London and some of the weird and wonderful things she's come across while being here. We then go full nerd and talk about Dungeons & Dragons, fantasy books and video games! :) Enjoy! Instagram: @robynschormann p.s. yes the title is a pun

Something different for this episode! I have a group of friends that I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons with for over a year and we've recently started a new campaign for Dungeons and Dragons.
For those of you who don't know what Dungeons and Dragons is, it’s a roleplaying game where people assume the role of a specific character, and play out a storyline, usually written or followed by the DM (known as the dungeon master).
I hope you guys have fun listening to this!
Characters:
Hugo playing as Eeldor
Leo playing as Adric
Chris playing as Freed
Katie playing as Augriss
Peter playing as Belwyn
I sat down with Karmen's friend and roommate Mary to learn more about her and Karmen and how they met, as well as her lifestyle as a whole.

I've been staying with my friend Karmen over the last few days, and asked some of her friends what they would want to know the most about her. This is the result! :)
Possibly a part 2 on the horizon?

I recently met Nick through my friend Karmen and wanted to ask him about his experience in and around Taipei.
It turned out to be a super interesting chat, as I learnt about his swing dancing & cycling hobbies, his goals for the new year and generally his experience living in Taipei!
