Todd in China
@toddinchina1.bsky.social
Lived in BeiJing Mar 2019 - Mar 2020. Now writing a book as I’m the only foreigner who really gets “China.”
I used to live in BeiJing so you can ask me anything and I can explain China to you

Lastly — enjoy this great people to people moment!

It’s like we’re all badminton players now doing ping pong diplomacy so be on your best behavior 😇

Also CiaoHongShoe is made by ethic Minorities so probably it will feel a bit more open and there won’t be any hate speech there. Feels nice huh 😊

Don’t feel weird if people take their shoes off at home.

It may seem crazy to you but that’s just the world! 😊

China has its own food concepts and they might be unfamiliar with yours.

So if talking about food, use descriptive language.

Like a burger is “A Chinese RowJawMore”

Don’t say Ni Hao say NIN Hao. It’s more polite and remember — your a guest!
