In this episode, Terry, a young woman from Hong Kong who arrived in Preston five years ago, explores how she got used to the slow-paced life in Lancashire after a life lived in big cities such as Hong Kong and Toronto. Curious and open towards other cultures and languages, Terry learns patterns of good behaviour and useful expressions by observing the locals. With a dream to become a tree management consultant, she is now studying Arboriculture at the Myerscough College.
