About English Girls First Impressions of Burmah

Journey back to the turn of the 20th century with Beth Ellis personal journal An English Girls First Impressions of Burmah. This meticulously edited account takes you along for the ride as a young English woman voyages across the ocean to Rangoon and settles into a small European community nestled in the jungles of Remyo. Ellis, who embarked on this Asian adventure solo to visit her brother, isnt afraid to poke fun at her own overblown apprehensions. Her candid observations offer a raw and unfiltered look at the less glamorous life of British colonialists in Myanmar. Published in 1899, a mere thirteen years after Britains formal annexation of Myanmar following the third Anglo-Burmese war, this book is a riveting historical document. (Summary by Carol Fullerton-Samsel)

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
