Description

“I am from Matsu (我是馬祖儂),” declares our guest, taking us on a journey through her island home, its unique dialect, and an identity shaped by both distance and history.

Educator and YouTuber Eva Tsao (曹辰瑩) didn’t grow up speaking Matsu — but learning it changed her life. Today, she teaches the language and runs Chami’s Store (掐米亞店), a YouTube channel full of stories and voices from the islands. We talk heritage, humour, and why Matsu is so much more than its military past.
