@yonight6871 21 день назад
Marijuana has been legalized in Canada, and teenagers can buy marijuana. This is terrible. Young people without self-control are prone to committing crimes for the sake of drugs. Therefore, smoking is not a very objectionable behavior in China, as long as you do not smoke in public places.

The summer there is too hot to bear which I don't like. The disadvantage of living in China is there is no old age pension for non perfessional occupations like if you live in western countries.

The pubs here in China can be pricy to but one thing that really helps is that there is no tipping here. Back home in Canada you pay 6-7$ a pint plus tax so it ends up being 8$ or more. Then on top of that you need to tip. Here I can get a pint of carlsberg or asahi for 5-6$ and that’s the final price.
