Hello everyone,

My name is Richard, a teacher, artist and psychologist from England.

I once worked in Hainan, I currently live in the U.K. working as a GCSE psychology teacher, as well as teaching art, history, science, maths, English and Mandarin to Primary and secondary school ages.

I intended to move back to China to live in Hangzhou in 3 years time.

I would love any and all advice and info on life in Hangzhou, such as best areas to live, living costs, how good salaries are, just anything to do with what life can be like for an experienced teacher living in Hangzhou.

Thank you anyone willing or able to help me out : - )

love,

Richard

What is true now might well be out of date in three years.
