Hey,
I am teaching in Zhoukou for a year starting in September. I was wondering if anyone could give me some idea of what its like.

To make things less vague, I am interested in:
- Living standard
- Daily activities of the people there (sports, nightlife, parks, etc.)
- Air quality
- Favourite local cuisine (I am half chinese and would like to know what the local cuisine is like, ie. spicy, sweet, etc.)
- Accessibility to other cities (Shanghai and Beijing in particular)

Thanks a lot!
