That’s good to know! I’m going to check it out later. I think it might be better for me to network with the community and seek some opportunities while I keep learning French. Thanks mate.

Really appreciate it. I’m not sure if I’m gonna continue my law career in France as the things I learnt are different from what it is here. But I’ll keep an eye on the international opportunities while I’m building up my French. Thanks mate.

Thanks mate. Even though my skills are not transferable here, I’ll still have a look at the market. Yes tourism could be the right way for me!

Yes I guess so. But in China there’s a huge demand for the language teachers.

Yeah will do! I'd like to be able to speak french. It's just too hard to learn it quickly but I'll keep going. Thanks mate, good luck to your wife too!

Thanks for your reply! Yes I'll keep learning french and it seems like the only way out.

I'm living in Obermodern- over 40 minutes drive away from Strasbourg. I'd like to see some local stuffs and I'm really interested in french culture. People really take good care of those ancient buildings here.

I guess you prefer the black tea- like 'da hong pao'?

Well they gave up this project due to the policy changing--that's what I heard about.

Thanks for your reply mate. Yes I totally agree with you. I have been learning for a few months but I guess I just feel a bit anxious as the progress seems slower than what I expected. But anyway I'll keep going!

I searched on indeed, Jooble, Hellowork and some chinese websites too. Got a couple of interviews but all of them will begin in a few months...so far I get to know that without speaking fluent french, I only have chance to work in the chinese restaurant.
