　　I’d like to talk about a taxi driver I met in Chendu, which is a city in the south of China.

　　I met this driver the first day I got there. After I walked out of the airport, I got into his car. After I told him my destination, he asked me, ‘You are not a local here, right?’ I knew he must have known that from my accent. So I replied, ‘No, I’m just a visitor. And I’m from the northeast part of China.’ Then he got so excited, he said, he’s never been to my hometown, as a person who lives in the south, he never gets to see the snow. He’s really curious about what snow looks like.

　　However, when I was just about to tell him what winter looks like, he changed the subject immediately. I mean, he didn’t mean to interrupt me, he was just so welcoming and talkative, you know.

　　He just suddenly became a free tour guide. He started to introduce all the places I should visit and all the snacks I shouldn’t miss. However, because of his dialect, I couldn't understand most of what he said. And he talked really fast, which was really hard for me to follow. It was about half an hour’s ride. The whole time, he didn’t even stop talking for one second.

　　So, you see, he’s the most talkative person I’ve met.
