Irish Born Chinese
{Origins of Irish Born Chinese}
Who am I?
I'm Vicky, owner IBC. Born in Cork and raised in Limerick, currently living in Dublin.
Why?
Out of curiosity in 2002.
Reason
Loneliness, no-one to chat to in Cantonese;
*thinking there must be more IBCs out there.
➠
Research (i.e. internet)
Found many ABC and BBC sites,
but not one single IBC site. Ended up contacting
Dim Sum to see if they have a sister site.
And?
Nope, nada... but the nice editor at Dim Sum poked
me to create an IBC site.
➠
Result!
Launched Irish Born Chinese in September 2002!
And have been going ever since. IBC's even been featured in magazines and newspapers.
The present
I give you the a cleaner revamped site, combining forum with articles. Let the article submissions begin!
Enjoy! -- 韋岐
