Can someone tell me if there are many ways to meet foreigners to hang out with English speaking in Jinan?   I am considering a job in the next city called Taian.

Hi,

I haven’t moved yet, I should fly in about the 14th. I am getting excited now, it’ll be my birthday on the 15th, so being in Jinan will be a totally different way of celebrating my birthday.

How long have you been in China?

CarlWayne

I've been in Jinan now for 2 months. I just love it here. I know how scary it can be to move to a strange place. My fears were false & unfounded. All of the things I worried about have not been a problem. Of course, many people have helped me get settled into my new home in Jinan. I'd be happy to repay their kindness to me by helping you get settled into your new home too.

Feel free to contact me on WeChat. My ID is CWA627. That is the best way to contact me. I don't check my Gmail very often nor the expat.com website. WeChat is used by everyone, everywhere in China. if you don't have WeChat, download it soon.

As you're getting packed & prepared, just breathe. Everything is going to be OK. It's been wonderful for me. I'm sure it will be for you too!

CarlWayne

By the way, although I am an American, I was born in the UK... Brize Norton.

CarlWayne

Settled in. Jinan has been great for me. Hope your experience has been awesome. HMU if you'd like to speak to someone in English for a change:)

I know this is an old thread, but I have just landed in Jinan. Im looking to meet any English speaking people for socialising and general hints and tips, I don't want to tread on toes within certain traditions etc etc.
If there is anyone that would like to get in touch please do.

Hope to hear from people soon
