hello,

most questions are for your 4-year-old daughter. well, i don' t know where you'll work in Dalian. As i am a local, i think i can help you much.

the best double language kindergarten is in Haichang City, a community near my house for rent. they can teach your daughter in 2 languages and if you like, you can send her from 7am to 8pm or later. the price is 700/month, if you are sure to stay for half a year, the fee will be lower. as for governess, i think i can help you. ;)

well, if you rent a 2bed room apartment in the Haichang City, the price will be so high to 50,000~80,000 a year. however, my house is much lower than that with the same things in the house. you can take a comparison.

the above is all i can help you. though i can drive, i still don't think i need a car, so haven't one yet. if you need more information or help, feel free to contact me.

my phone number is 0411-81791240.
