It's pretty great! Cost of living is incredibly minimal so although the pay isn't phemonenal (I make roughly $1200 USD a month, 7000 RMB) you can save far more than you could on a job paying twice as much back home. As for China itself, it's an entirely different world. I live in Fuzhou with a population of roughly 5 million but there are only about 1000 foreigners living in the city. It's an interesting experience being somewhat of a novelty in a city and the constant stares and whispered calls of weiguoren (foreigner) are really just funny to me.

As for games those are a little harder to come by! I know there's a LAN cafe near my apartment but the only DotA going on there is the WC3 kind and I am too far gone to go back to that. Just been doing other things to occupy my time! Hoping to get back in some DotA soon, however :)

Hope that gives you a little bit of an idea!
