My CN experiences

Hi everyone,

My name is Henry , and I’m originally from the CN. I’ve spent a lot of time 47 years in China over the years, especially around Beijing, Hebei, and the Pearl River Delta region. My first steps in the country were a mix of curiosity and learning—getting used to the pace of the cities, the transportation systems, and of course the food culture.

Day‑to‑day life for me in China has always been a balance of work and exploring. I enjoy the convenience of local markets, the efficiency of mobile payments, and the friendliness of people in different regions. Every city has its own rhythm, and that’s something I’ve always appreciated. I end up as a VP - GM in Imace com.

I’m looking forward to connecting with others here and learning from your experiences as well.

Warm regards,

Hi Henry,

Welcome to the community!

It sounds like you’ve built a wealth of experience across different parts of China. I completely agree that every city has its own character, and that’s one of the things many people enjoy most about living here.

It’s great to have someone with your background in the forum. I’m sure many newcomers will benefit from your experience, especially those relocating to China for work.

Looking forward to seeing your insights and discussions around the community!
