Experiencia de expatriado
Returned to Australia for health reasons.
Home!!
Living abroad gave me an insight into how things are done. While I'd always thought that we did everything better in Australia, e.g that drivers didn't behave like those in Ukraine and China, on returning I found that things weren't that different after all.

A wonderful country full of wonderful people. Even when they're cheating you they're friendly and smiling! Not that many people tried to cheat me. The sights were incredible and the history was evident in so many places.
Nothing much! It was amazing. Probably the biggest thing for me was that the 'Chinese food' was very different to what I'd eaten in Australia. Beijing food has a lot of chilli, while the typical Chinese food in Australia is Cantonese style (Hong Kong and nearby areas).
Teaching English in schools and a university, Director and Principal of an English language school.
So many things - the people, the food, the sights, the snow in Winter, the flowers in Spring and the colours in Autumn.
Traffic is bad if you're driving. Road rage isn't just an American sport - I got shot in a road rage incident! Corruption on all levels from traffic cops to the politicians. Road surfaces in the city are terrible, because the money to fix the roads ends up in politician's pockets. Overall though, the good far outweighed the bad.
