Hello,
A few years ago before I became an LA I lived and worked in Shanghai for just under a year and it was great. Afterwards I got to travel all over China which was amazing. You can live in Shanghai for literally next to nothing provided you get into the Chinese way of doing things and don’t try to recreate a little version of home, which would kind of defeat the point of going there in the first place.
Its also a gateway to the wider region, My brother is an architect based in Hong Kong and he’s currently spending a week getting a tan on a paradise beach in the Philippines!
I am based in London, which I love as its where I’m from, but I look forward to hopefully working all over the world in the future.
Good Luck.
