How do I meet people in China?
When we asked people living in China about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"Expats in China often join language exchange clubs and international schools, which can offer social activities and events for their members. Expats may also join casual meetups focused on hobbies or interests such as travel, yoga, or film. The popular social media app WeChat is also a great way to connect with the expat community and make new friends. Additionally, expats can join online forums such as Internations, attend embassy receptions, or take advantage of the city's nightlife and bar scene," explained one expat living in China.

"It's a relatively small English-speaking expat community. There are clubs to join, but to meet others all you have to do is go to The Broadway, a Western restaurant in town. Every expat in the city ends up there at some time or another. For lack of another, it is our community center," said another expat in Tianjin, China.
