Hi! im moving to guangzhou in less then 3 weeks to teach english to children and kindergarten. Just looking for anyone to help me out with a few things as im starting to freak out that im going to be so lost and not know what to do when i get there as this is my first time living somewhere other then my hometown perth, australia.
Where can i find access to a printer, scanner and photocopier. what are the costs of getting a personal wireless internet or am i better off going into internet cafes?

Also where is some good nightlife, restaraunts and shops.

Any advice or information anyone could give me would be great!!

Starbucks Cafe is a better place for foreigners to go to get access to wireless internet i guess, you can use the printer and scanner around the street in a printer shop, and its quite cheap like 0.2 yuan a copy.

Hello upside-down táitai.

Im a student from europe, been living here for 1 month, and its amazing
I love the climate and asians; what little i understand of them is awesome, so far :p

I was completely lost when i arrived, but excitedly so. You get the hang of GZ quite quickly.

Do you speak mandarin?
Tell me if you need an inexperienced guide when you arrive!

Hi Emily

I have assumed you've moved here now.

How are you finding it?
I moved out here end of March and it is an amazing city even if you find it tough at first.

Feel free to get in touch I live in the city and love meeting new people and would be more than happy to show you around a little.
