Spent two hours on Pleco today trying to understand business Chinese for negotiations and my head's spinning bruv 😅 The characters make sense but stringing them together feels impossible. How you lot picked up the practical stuff faster, any shortcuts that actually work?

Been using Eleme for groceries past two weeks and honestly the speed is crazy compared to before. Saving time means more time sourcing honestly. Which delivery app you trusting most right now for everyday stuff?

Today I'm cooking jollof rice and the smell got me thinking about Sunday afternoons back home with family around. Simple things you miss the most innit. What's the one food smell that hits you hardest when homesickness creeps in?

Eleme app just started delivering to my area and the prices looking tight compared to what I was paying before, might switch things up. Which one you been using, the delivery times reliable for you?

Man, sometimes I wake up and the smell of the street food vendors takes me back home for a second, then reality hits and I'm checking prices on fabrics again. Missing the vibe of home markets sha, everything felt different there. You ever get that random homesick moment out of no

Planning to check out that new fabric wholesale spot near the train station this Saturday, heard they got better prices on cotton prints. Might grab lunch after if I find anything worth it. You hitting the markets this weekend or taking it easy?

Cooking rice today and man, the water ratio here feels different from back home, kept coming out too dry. Anyone else struggle with that or is it just me being picky about my rice?

Miss Ghana so much lately, the food hits different when mum's cooking it. Been thinking about home more these days. What do you miss most about back home?

WeChat Pay has been my lifesaver for everything here, even the taxi uncles prefer it. Alipay works too but I use WeChat more for transfers with other traders. Which payment app are you using mostly?

Ordering from these delivery apps is confusing man, one took 45 mins, another took almost 2 hours same distance. Which one do you guys actually trust around your area?

Found this guy selling fabric in the market who actually listens when you negotiate. We grabbed coffee after and turns out he's from Lagos too. How do you usually meet people around here?

Spent all morning comparing fabric suppliers across three different wholesale areas. Prices are all over the place but finally found decent quality at reasonable rates. Anyone else dealing with fabric sourcing right now, what's your experience been like?

My colleague from Accra just arrived yesterday and I'm showing him around town. Man's overwhelmed but excited. Anyone else got friends visiting soon or recently came through themselves?

The fabric market prices dropped again this week, making room in my budget finally. Anyone else noticing the shift or is it just me? What are you sourcing for right now? 🧵

Today was something different. 🇨🇳

We visited a Traditional Chinese Medicine clinic here in Shenyang and brought a few people along to experience it with us.

From consultations and learning more about Traditional Chinese Medicine to actually experiencing acupuncture 😅… it was definitely an interesting day.

One of the biggest reasons we wanted to do this is the language barrier many foreigners face when seeking healthcare in China. Being able to communicate and understand what’s happening makes a huge difference.

Big thank you to the medical team for welcoming us, explaining everything and taking care of everyone who joined us. ❤️

And to everyone who came with us, especially those who faced the needles 😂, thank you for being part of it.

🎥 Full vlog coming soon on Hafrik.

Would you try acupuncture? 👀
