VINNIE77 Points: Join Date: Sep 10, 2005 Status: offline	Hello, Can anyone speak on the following activities and/or basics of daily life that we're used to at home and what they're like for a foreigner in China? I'm interested to know about the mail system? Have you found it a smooth transition to receive your mail in China? Do people use PO Boxes? What about the telephone? Of course it's possible to set up mobile phone service and make local calls. Does anyone use the phone for frequently calling international and keeping in touch with friends and relatives overseas? What is your recommendation for this? What about Internet? Are you finding many of the same websites and abilities for web search there that we're used to in the Western world? Any additional advice or recommendation that people can offer regarding their transition to life in China, please tell me. Thanks, Vinnie.

Hello,

Can anyone speak on the following activities and/or basics of daily life that we're used to at home and what they're like for a foreigner in China?

What about the telephone? Of course it's possible to set up mobile phone service and make local calls. Does anyone use the phone for frequently calling international and keeping in touch with friends and relatives overseas? What is your recommendation for this?

Any additional advice or recommendation that people can offer regarding their transition to life in China, please tell me.

Thanks,
