Celebrating my birthday in Beijing. 🎂🥂

Hello everyone! 😊

I am so excited to be heading to Beijing this November for my birthday! 🎂✨

I’ll be spending around 10 days in the city, from November 12, and since it's my very first birthday adventure in China, I really want to experience the best the city has to offer.

For me, the absolute highlight of traveling is connecting with people from all over the world. I'm an international professional who loves meeting vibrant, interesting individuals, and I'd be thrilled to share this adventure with fellow expats and locals!

I’ll be based around the Liangmaqiao and Sanlitun areas.

I would love to get your insider recommendations for the city's more exclusive and authentic side: think exceptional courtyard dining, high-end traditional teahouses, or sophisticated cocktail lounges where people go to unwind.

If anyone is up for sharing a delicious meal, grabbing an afternoon tea, or raising a glass to toast my birthday at a nice venue, I’d be absolutely delighted to meet up! 😊

Also, if anyone could kindly introduce me to any vetted or private WeChat groups for international professionals in the city, I’d be incredibly grateful.

I’d love to stay safely plugged into local events while I’m in town.

Can't wait to connect and share a toast! 🥂✨
