Always had that feeling no matter how much money you make you don't seem to save any of it? Well make this a thing of the past. Day to day living in China is notoriously cheap, with living costs been much cheaper then the UK. Its dependent on what you like to spend your money on of course.

IS IT EASY TO PICK UP THE CHINESE LANGUAGE?

Mandarin is the most commonly used language in China. It is definitely a language that will require much practice before you can start using it comfortably. However, the Chinese people understand this and are very patient with foreigners often trying to speak English to you to make you feel more comfortable. We suggest to learn basic phrases before you arrive, as the locals will really appreciate the effort, even if its a simple hello (ni hao) or thank you (xie xie).

HOW ARE FOREIGNERS REGARDED?

In major cities such as Beijing and Shanghai seeing a foreign face isn't anything new. However, in less populated parts of the country seeing a foreigner is a whole new experience. Parents will often ask if its OK for a picture with their child and you will get many people trying to speak to you. It's a warming feeling especially when you see people smiling and looking so interested by simply having you around.
