Hi guys my names Royce I'm from Australia and I'm new here (but you probably already knew that Smile ). I have recently accepted a job (signed a letter of intent) and will be flying to China at the end of this month to work for the EF school in Shijiazhuang. I've read a lot of spook stories on EF but I've also spotted some good experiences with this particular school in Shijiazhuang so i'm not worried about the business end of things.

I'm an easy going guy and pretty accepting and I like a good challenge. (besides the whole teaching part) is there anything I should think about doing before heading off? I'm sure there are things i haven't thought of such as how cold does it get in winter?

I'm looking for some lifestyle tips or any experience you would like to pass on to a fellow FT
