Ni hao! In this blog post I will try to show you a litle bit more about general advice during your stay in Beijing! First you have to understand that everybody is very nice, curious of us westerners(Lao Wei) and friendly. Most of the times when somebody seeks contact with you, they want to take your picture or talk to you so they can practise their english and learn more english from you! The chinese, specially the younger ones, are very interested in you as you are a westerner. You both look and behave different to them, and you really have to understand this as they come on to you all the time. Need a break from this, don´t come to China! My advice is take your time with them, talk to them, let them take a picture together with you in their mobile phone! You will make new friends and learn a lot about how the chinese people are! I will tell you about some examples of this, but firstly I want to tell you about the bad side also. It never happened to me during one months ...
My first visit to Beijing, China, was 15th of April to 15th of May 2007. Beijing is in my heart forever since then. Our 3 room apartment is in the Minan Residential Complex at Dongzhimen Nei Dajie, Dong Cheng District, Beijing. Local street is Dong Yang Wei Jie. Close to Gui Jie food street & the subway station Dongzhimen, busses, bicycling or walking to see all of central Beijings interesting sights. I´ve been to Beijing also in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2014. Who could ask for more?
