Summary
I’m joined by Linda Panda, a DC-based woman in her mid thirties who opens up about how being raised in Utah with Asian parents impacted her dating life. She shares that while she didn’t have her first kiss until she was 25, a series of whirlwind romance stories would follow. We hear about her mindset with dating, how she’s approached meeting people off of dating apps, and why she’s open to finding a sperm done if she doesn’t find a partner. Follow along with Linda's adventures at @wanderwithpandalove on Instagram!
