- Looking for a flatmate in Yulin (800 RMB mid July)
  Classifieds > Housing > Sharing > Room Available
  Our flatmate has just gone back to Germany and her room is up for grabs from the middle of July!
  We live in a duplex apartment in Yulin, on the intersection of Fangcao Jie (芳草街) and Fangcao Dong Jie (芳草东街). The apartment complex as well as the apartment itself is new and looks great, however there is no elevator and the apartment is spread out across the 6th and the 7th floor.
  The top floor has a large green garden and an air-conditioned sunroom, great for parties, barbecues and currently used as a studio/napspace.
  The floor below has a kitchen (microwave + oven + washing machine), toilet (decent shower, western toilet and a BATH!), sunny living room with a great big sofa, TV, Wifi, veranda and a sound system, all hooked up to Apple TV and Airplay.
  Your room is a bit on a small side, has AC and a large wide bunk bed (sleeps two people comfortably as long as they are not over 185cm) with a desk, shelves and a deep wardrobe underneath.
  You'll be sharing the flat with two guys in their mid twenties who are working and studying here. We spend most of the time out of the house!
  The bills come to around 1-200 per month and we have a cleaner that comes twice a week to clean the house, tidy the garden and do the laundry. We pay her 1000 per month and that would also need to be split between us.
  Give me a call if you are interested – 186 1574 9983

  Has anyone recently applied for a Chinese (L) visa in HK? If so what was the length of stay that was granted? Also any recommendations for reliable and reasonably priced agents in HK would also be appreciated.
  Cheers.

  Hi, I'm applying for a name change (Deed Poll) and my application needs to be witnessed by an English Speaking solicitor/notary public. Could you please recommend one to me. Also has anyone on this forum changed the name on their British passport while living in China? How does this process work?
  I would appreciate any information.
  Regards

  Filling breakfast tacos + best cocktails in Sichuan + scrumptious waffles = by far the best brunch I've had in Chengdu!
  We stumbled out of shop completely gazeboed and elated beyond the level that we originally thought possible on a very hungover Saturday morning.
  (not cheap but worth it)!!!

  Best Quality:Price Wine in Chengdu
  (by a huge margin)
  I have been going to this place for the best part of the year and I love it, not least because it remains pretty obscure. I'm now worried that my personal contributions aren't going to keep their business afloat; so please give it a go, you won't regret it.
  The decor recently received an upgrade and no longer looks savaged by someone with a fetish for metal, concrete and torturous seating. It's comfortable, offers a reasonable amount of privacy, if needed, and is generally very pleasant. The curtains separating 'the booths' still feel like they've been pulled out of a bordello, but that just adds to the charm.
  The food still feels like it's flown in from somewhere very far away, but at least it arrives warm and they are happy to offer their hangry customers a discount (or some complimentary stuff) if you ask. The owner is usually cool with ordering in shaokao, noodles or chuancai from nearby restaurants... some of which actually go surprisingly well with wine.
  In contrast to the review below, I find the pricing to be sober compared to other places offering wines, and I'm not exactly working at Chevron. Though you might have to fork out for a bottle to really feel the value.
