HI,
I've never been to Beijing before and don't know much about the cost of living in Beijing. I have a job offer that would give me 17,000 yuan a month for salary and another 11,000 yuan a month for housing. I've lived in other Asian countries before (Philippines and Thailand) and I've always enjoyed living simply and eating local food. Would this salary be a good beginning salary in Beijing? And what type of accommodation would 11,000 a month for housing allow me to get? Thanks!
