Hi,

I have had a 6 month teaching offer starting in June Shenyang. I believe, from reading these posts, that there are not many foreginers in the city which is fine by me although I do not know any Mandarin and I don't want to be isolated because I can't communicate.

I would like to experience everything and my other option is Shijiazhuang in Hebei Province, I need to consider being able to get around and see the parts of the country as well. What do you suggest?

Thanks!
Keith
