I'd definitely say if you haven't got yourself fully tied down with families and dogs and stuff, there's no reason not to, but at the same time I would certainly not advise China for numerous reasons, though your friends are there I guess.
I live here too of course but only because I established my life before knowing what i know now... so I discourage anybody visiting or moving here!
As for the cliff hanger... heh. I'm not sure that I'll continue it either =P
Oh I’m aware of the reasons not to move there, lol. I only have one friend remaining in China now. He opened up an aquarium business with another expat. Seems to be doing well, but I only know what he lets on. Kind of like you. :p
Just curious, what tier city is Anyang? I personally thought Chengdu looked intriguing. I’ll eventually visit China, but I’m staying clear of large cities. I actually just want to take a trip specifically to take photos. My life here in the states is keeping me busy at the moment though so I’m not moving anytime soon.
The anyang I lived in is in Korea, not China. There is an Anyang in China though, but it's more prefecture level than tiered.
I really need to see a bit more of China too, I've gotten myself stuck in Shanghai lol, but lots of travel due this year!
Ah, I see now. I guess I should have picked up on that when noticing coastline to the west, lol. Well, good luck on your travels man! May the steemforce be with you.
