I’m a bookkeeper, living in West Yorkshire. Discussing balance sheets is fine by me, but would love it even more if we could share stories about China. From 1995-2002, I taught English in Hong Kong, Beijing, Hunan and Taiwan. From 2012-2017, I worked as an agent placing Chinese students in UK boarding schools and universities.
