Taffy, there was a time when the frequent contributors to this site shared a common experience of living and teaching in China. It appears now that most have abandoned the Middle Kingdom.I have retired from teaching but chose to continue to live in China. Relieved from negotiating the annual work permit process, I volunteer at a couple of universities where I taught in the past, do much reading and too little writing. I have a 10 year tourist visa that requires me to travel every 60 days to nearby countries, a task I am happy to perform.
China's current army of Foreign Teachers seem to be split between young college grads from NES countries that are escaping the damaged economies at home and Asian/African teachers working illegally who are escaping politically volatile homelands. I wish both groups well, but they do not seem to post on this forum. The ragtag platoon of NES FT misfits that landed on these shores with me a decade ago are mostly gone and are not lamented by our employers.
I continue to enjoy my time in China, communicating often with some of the 6000 college students that I have taught, observing their challenging lives in a country that is evolving at a historic pace.
Happy/Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Oh, you've taken me by surprise. I hope you are living somewhere nice (house-wise) and are now benefiting by doing things in China you didn't have time to do before.
You'll will probably recognise me in a one in a million circumstance if you ever spot me in China, so don't hesitate to to approach and say hello.
I hope you have good friends to cook you dumplings- home-cooked ones are twice as nice.
Have a good Christmas period.
