GUESTWHAT It's like going to England without knowing how to speak the English language. So how are you going to work with the Chinese who speak mostly mandarin? Teach English if you have the relevant qualification; if not no can do.

You cannot get a visa unless you have a job...so search for jobs on the Net and you will get some idea of salaries. You would not want to work for local salaries only expat ones...so it depends on your qualifications and skills etc. Rents can be as low as 700 rmb a month in small cities, but maybe 3000 rmb a month in Shanghai. Local travel by bus is very cheap, food is quite cheap, utilitities relatively expensive compared with other prices. How much for each of these depends on lifestyle... aircon is a big expense for most foreigners, food can be almost nothing to quite expensive...and so on.
