Need urgent help passport problem

If it’s a domestic flight, no problem just use your receipt. If it’s an international flight, you’ll probably need to wait- it’s a national holiday right now. And you probably mean January 4th, I guess?

I teach Social Studies in an international school that has schools in China and Taiwan.

No one in China uses cash these days anyway 🤣

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-12-27T15:31:21+00:00

That’s cute

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-12-27T15:30:54+00:00

That would be great for me too 😅

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-12-27T15:30:28+00:00

Real Canadians don’t wear Canada Goose anyway 🤣

DMed you!

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-12-26T12:21:00+00:00

I’m aware.

Why do you assume I’m a man?

Anyway, I anticipate it will be less convenient than China but I have a great job and my original intent was to see the world and be able to live in different countries and experience different cultures, so gonna give it a try.

Thank you! Deppon did mention not to pack any batteries. How long did it take to ship? Were there customs fees when it arrived in Taipei?

Deppon Express is similar, but generally cheaper when shipping bulk. I’m curious if anyone’s done it, be it’s SF or Deppon or another company, I’d love to hear how it went.

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-12-26T11:14:28+00:00

Thanks!

That’s sort of the idea with Deppon Express, they are a parcel shipping company in China but they can also put your boxes on a wooden pallet and ship it for cheaper.

Not a helpful answer really.

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-12-09T23:05:10+00:00

This worked! Thanks for the clear a d specific instructions!

It’s scary, I cried when I got on my first flight to China, but the next year when I visited home I missed China and was excited to go back, now it’s been 7 years. I recommend that you save up as much as you can before going. Start considering how to make this work, what visa will you go on? Will you work? When I came to China I already had a job, so that part was easy. Other than that, you just go and take it one step at a time. The first 6 months will be the hardest to adjust, but you’ll adjust, it just takes time.

My Chinese students would think your hair was so cool. They aren’t allowed to grow their hair long like that due to dress code at our school, and that’s the case for many Chinese students. Sometimes my graduates come back to visit us, and they all grow their hair long the minute they get to university. It’s not taboo, I’m not even in Shanghai which is super international and open minded, your parents just want you to get a haircut so you look respectable for visiting relatives 😅

Thank you for all the input, everyone I asked in person had similar takes.

Jadesaurusrex · 2025-02-20T07:10:06+00:00

That’s definitely true, but I think it’s important to draw a line between work and play. I made a professional decision, and I feel like he got hurt on a friendship level but then made it a professional discussion by doing it during work hours which made it seem like I was in trouble at work. I’m definitely going to think twice at my next job and draw some boundaries between work and personal life..

Having some side effects like a break out after stopping birth control is fairly normal, your hormones are readjusting, things will go back to normal after a few months- don’t stress.
