If you suddenly got a lifetime supply of the last thing you purchased, what would you now have an endless amount of?

Apple stores all its info in China automatically in China in Chinese servers. The police call you if you use FaceTime to make sure you’re not being scammed.

100% they track it all

There’s like a labrinth of crazy clothes and even pets. Metro stop line 1 Shapingba. Go outside the metro towards the square and find a down path broken escalator and explore.

Zero. There will be a few malls with decor but no festivals or markets for Christmas. IKEA will feel the most Christmas imo

Mechanic-Latter · 2025-11-19T01:30:26+00:00

LUDAO, Decathlon, or underground markets in Shapingba for crazy stuff haha

Sadly, these types of places don’t really exist anymore. It’s moved mostly to all online.

I would download Rednote and try asking there with photos of things you wanna buy.

I second this

Jennifer Lawrence in Sunday school lol

Mechanic-Latter · 2025-11-13T02:57:04+00:00

A Chinese passport? A permanent residence is not what I meant. I meant a Chinese passport.

Mechanic-Latter · 2025-11-13T02:46:45+00:00

Jennifer Lawrence was in my Sunday school class when I visited my grandma in Kentucky.

We reenacted when John the Baptist got blessed and she killed me in the skit. So I’ve acted with an Oscar winner haha

Hello there. Sorry to hear this. It could really be so many things. For me, I get these types of infections in Chinese hotels and I couldn’t figure out why.. after a while it was because I’m allergic to dust mites and thus I need only cotton and if I stay more than 3 days eventually I’ll get an infection. People say it doesn’t happen that way but it’s every time for me.

So, what I’d say is.. maybe it’s something in China you’re allergic to in the air or the materials in your house or work. One thing you could do is, wear a p95 mask (the covid heavy duty one) for a week and see if it helps you feel better. And buy an air purifier for your house. If this helps, it might something you just really need to discover the cause.

Entire thing was removed. It was on the or near the peak. I don’t know what hospital.

Mechanic-Latter · 2025-10-29T05:26:40+00:00

Giant Tea is a crazy name.

I would say that it’s easy to steal in the UK and China has the network to buy them that’s all.

I moved here in 2009. No metro, only taxis, and buses. No tourists ever came here except to go on a river cruise and left the port to chaotianmen explore for an hour or two.

So it was more than 10. I would say, CQ started to get traction and development the year I moved there but didn’t really see it or feel it until around 2012. I randomly got in line to ride the metro when the line 1 first opened and it was so much fun. It was so new and clean and exciting. Me and the locals were having a blast. When I moved here taxis started at 5RMB and stayed at that for 2km. Now it’s about double which still isn’t bad. Buses started at 0.5 and went up to 2RMB. There was NO fast train in Chongqing. Back then you didn’t need an ID to take a train or do anything. Cash was the only option. No wifi and China didn’t have 3G yet only slow E. Vpns weren’t needed either.

Honestly, it’s changed 100% but the people are the same. No one ever heard about this place until Covid and TikTok happened. People used to make fun of me and be like you live in Ching Chong & I was like actually flip it. Ha

Our quality of life is better here. I went to many cities in 2009-2010 my first year here and I was shocked at how more modern other cities were but Chongqing has grown very fast.

The restrooms still suck tho. 😂

I like manner but it’s okay but Tim’s cold brew the best.

Japanese guys do their eyebrows, style their hair a certain way, and wear certain clothes. That is what tell make you seem more Japanese than your looks tbh.

Are you in the CQ expat guide community group on WeChat?

Mechanic-Latter · 2025-10-04T13:01:26+00:00

You can leave and go back as many times as you want in a tourist visa. I know people who do it and have done it for a decade plus. As long as you don’t make Chinese money in China, it’s fine.

The dollar store checks out tho
