having some Vietnamese and Chinese employees in my office.
Still dont know where i can find English speakers to make friends:)

How about you?

Rubby

here just like the internetional union.
so many people from all around the world

Hello there!
Any suggestion about the place of English speakers?

Thanks

Rubby

Nice to meet you, Rubby.

Well, if you like beer or coffee, I suggest you hang out to bars in Taojin or Xiaobei. Many expats get together there in the evening.

by the way, If you use QQ or Wechat, you can search for nearby expats and join groups. Get to know each other and organise fun activities.

hello JoeDADA,
Is that ur name:)?
Thanks for your infos about the place for expats..
i'm interested in fun activities in groups:)
count me in any in the next time.

Hey guys,

I'm in the same boat. I'm from the Uk and I've been in Guangzhou for just over a month in Panyu district.

Been getting so bored because there is hardly any expats around here. I don't even know of any bars in the area to meet any. And I miss bars!
