Expat experience
The beach, the fresh air, the less crowded areas, the beauty.
Trying to get a taxi outside my apartment. Not being able to read bus timetables. Not having an English map or tourist guide in English.
Managing my own English Teaching Department
A lot of good touristy things, comfort of expat amenities and socialising
The hot humid summers, wearing thermals in the winter, pollution, overcrowding, too many expats to think it is China, traffic congestion.
Adapting to UK lifestyle after so long away from it!
A lot of good touristy things, comfortable living, beach.
Cost of living vs suitable salary paid work
Teaching English, exploring a new city in China!
Pretty much everything!
The hot humid summers, wearing thermals in the winter!
Teaching English, exploring a new country!
It was China 10 years ago - everything was new in terms of an expat seeing an industrial city for the first time.
