Hi everybody!

I will probably move to Gaoming (Foshan's suburb) soon.
Coming from the North of China, I would like to ask the following question to people living in this region:
- Is Foshan a nice play to stay and live?
- Speaking mandarin, can I communicate easily over there with Chinese people or should I start learning Cantonese?
- Do they speak English, I mean better than in the North?
- Is there lots of foreigners? Some nice place to go out during we?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
Have a nice day!

I think Gaoming is some distance away from the metro stations in Chancheng District. To me it is always a good idea to learn a bit local language/dialect to communicate with those people who can barely speak the official language.

Basically I have no idea about Gaoming. Hope you can get help from people living in the place.
