A new month means new opportunities, new connections and a fresh start 😎 Whatever you didn’t get right last month, RESET ✨ Whatever you’ve been hoping for, GO AGAIN 💪 This month, show up, stay consistent and put yourself where you can be seen. Wishing you a month filled with progress, clarity and real opportunities.

Yo, made new friends, it was quite easy making new connections, not just people to talk to, but people with various possible opportunities to offer. With this 3 things you could connect quickly when you meet new people, remember in china, and basically anywhere in the world, to be ahead you need people who know more than you do in such a field or pursuit. 1 - when you say hi/hello ( basically greetings) remember to comment on something they're wearing or something you could highlight about them. eg " hi, good day, I love this blazers though, looking real good" then your name and blah blah blah you go on 2 - make sure you have quality questions planned always, (create a frame work) many people don't have any sort of frame work, they say " just go with the flow" as much as this sounds doable, make sure you have a framework, eg firstly ask where they're from, second, their name, then repeat Thier name twice and up to 4 times in the conversation ( very important). And lastly but not the least 3 - ask about what they do, and listen like your life depends on it, then you can ask if you could take a picture, (after the whole discussion though) then ask for their WeChat/WhatsApp so you could send it to them, remember you are trying to build a connection, so enjoy the whole thing👋, Give us some of your guidelines on how to reach out to some new.

Less than 24 hours to launch. On the 13th, we made the decision to push forward and officially launch the full native Hafrik app. Since then, it’s been intense. Not just building and fixing things, but constantly thinking: Are we doing this the right way? Is there anything we’re missing? Can this be better? One thing I’ve learned through this process: Clarity doesn’t come before you start. It comes as you build. The more you build, the clearer the vision becomes. The clearer the direction becomes. But even with that clarity, there’s still a certain pressure that comes with bringing something real into the world. Especially when you know people are going to depend on it. The past two weeks have also come with challenges, especially with app store approvals. It hasn’t been smooth. But we’re here now. And we’re ready. Hafrik is more than just an app. It’s a platform built to connect people to opportunities, services, and a community, starting from China and expanding globally. If everything goes as planned, we go live very soon. Let’s see how it unfolds.

Living in a new country can quietly turn into a routine of work and home, class and home. Before you know it, months pass and you’ve met almost no one outside your small circle. If you’re in China, don’t let that happen. Opportunities here rarely show up through isolation. They come through conversations, shared meals, events, collaborations, introductions, and simply being visible. The people you meet today can open doors you didn’t even know existed tomorrow. Go out. Attend that meetup. Join that community. Start the conversation. Don’t just survive in China. Build something here. #LifeInChina #Networking #ForeignersInChina #BuildYourCircle #GrowthMindset #HafrikTv #podcast #Hafrik #horlaarsman

What we’re building with Hafrik is not just another social media platform. It’s a living network for Africans everywhere. Students landing in a new country trying to figure things out. Entrepreneurs searching for suppliers and real opportunities. Travelers who want trusted information from people who actually live there. Communities that need faster updates than rumors and WhatsApp broadcasts. Hafrik is where connection turns into opportunity. A place where Africans across China, Europe, the US, and beyond can share knowledge, move information quickly, trade, collaborate, and grow together. We’re not just building an app. We’re building infrastructure for the African global community. And this is only the beginning. #Hafrik #AfricanCommunity #BuildingInPublic

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. #Hafrik #HafrikTV #AfricanStudents #AfricansInChina #StudyAbroad #AfricanDiaspora #ChinaLife
