Living in China for a year

Post new topic

OnTheRoad9

I'm planning to go to China later this year or early next year.

Live there for a year in 2000.

Want to stay long-term this time too.

Appreciate recommendations and advice!

Hello OnTheRoad9,


Welcome on board !


How was your first experience in China ?


Are you planning to look for a job or maybe set your own business ?


Regards

I was there from 2010 (world exhibition) to 2018 and this every year for 2 x 3 months. I had my office there.

A wonderful time and made many friends.

What binds you to China?


Greetings

OnTheRoad9

Thanks for the message Bhavna - nice to meet you!


I'd like to work part time. Hard to get a work visa this way. Any recommendations?


I'd also like to meet people - relationship. Other than in person, how can I connect with people all over China?

Any good dating sites?

Any good websites similar to craigslist?


Best wishes,


Chris /  OnTheRoad9
