man, visiting asia would be nice
it is
ever went there?
who do you think i am
I'm going to chengdu and hongkong next month
Excited for first world break from mainland and some good spicy chengdu food
weren't you in Thailand a couple months ago?
Yeah and Taiwan. Both in October
whoa rich
Nah just nearby
eh
lets b honest though
china is not a nice place unless you are an expat for some global company
or have money
generally everywhere is better with money
The rich Chinese tell me China is not that much better with loads of money
everything is done in such a bullshit way, that no amount of money can solve
I honestly can't believe people, even the nongren dumbfucks think beijing is the surpreme city to live in given such pollution
chongqing likewise although it's pollution as bad, but SW mainlanders i've met are dumbfucks to the nth degree
the good parts of Asia seem to be Hong Kong, Singapore and Taiwan. And all have a certain trade off.
Hong Kong has Cantonese
Singapore has weird laws
Taiwan has impossible immigration policies
really the least you could ask is taxi drivers know some english
>be a foreigner
>get targeted
Taiwanese taxi drivers don't speak English often
there isn't much tourism in Taiwan anyway
Mandarin isn't hard to learn anyway
But moving to Hong-Kong kinda forces you to go through the Cantonese language clusterfuck
So much English in Hong Kong
a cousin of mine lives in Hong Kong with his Italian wife. He works for a global company and everyone in his world speaks English. His wife is depressed because in her world (grocery store, dude that came to fix the AC, bus drivers etc) no-one speaks English
lrn2cantonese faggot
but i'm not surprised that the business world can speak english while ordinary people cannot
most people in HK speak some sort of broken english
if you're on hong Kong island basically everyone does
puk gai and diu lei lo mo is the only cantonese you need to know

Guide to making Serpentza thumbnail: step 1. put the background as either chinese flag, or stock photo of whatever shit hes talking about. step 2: put an ugly chinese girl in front of it, or a weird picture of himself. step 3: speech bubble. step 4: profit
his latest one is literally the chinese flag, pic of himself, and an eagle
