  • WhatsApp/Instagram/Google in China – What’s working for you?

    Just arrived or planning a trip? Here’s the real deal on staying connected:

    The Block
    WhatsApp, Instagram, Google (Maps, Gmail, Drive), Facebook, and X are blocked here without a stable connection tool. Don’t panic—it’s manageable.

    What actually works:
    WeChat = Everything (chat, pay, mini-apps, life)
    Baidu Maps > Google Maps for local navigation (Chinese/English available)
    Outlook/Hotmail usually works without issues for email
    Bing works for search (international version)
    Apple Maps works if you have iPhone

    Pro tips:
    - Download a VPN before you arrive (if you go that route—test a few, they vary by city/ISP)
    - International roaming: from your home SIM sometimes bypasses blocks (but check data costs!)
    - Alipay or WeChat Pay are essential—way more important than Instagram access

    My question to you:
    What’s your setup? VPN, roaming, or full "going local" with Chinese apps? Any apps surprisingly working better than expected?

    Drop your tips below for the new arrivals!

  • What is it really like studying in China as an African student?

    We spoke with students from Nigeria and Tanzania about their real experiences living and studying in China.

    From language barriers and culture shock to racial discrimination, freezing winters in Shenyang, and the opportunities that made them come here in the first place.

    Their stories are honest, real, and powerful.

  • Try out this hidden or not so hidden gem in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province it’s definitely one way to enjoy Shenzhen nights

    It’s called Woo Shisha Lounge and I’ve been there a couple of times now & just to say ; this isn’t me encouraging anyone to smoke, just sharing my experience.

    They honestly have some of the best shisha I’ve tried. So many flavors and you can adjust the strength to your preference. My personal fave? Earl Grey Smooth, slightly sweet, and different.

    Another thing was the cocktails because that’s what really impressed me. You know how some places are hit or miss with drinks? These were actually well made and balanced every time.

    If you’re in Shenzhen or visiting and want a chill spot to wind down after a long day, the vibe here is relaxed and easy.
