Just arrived in Beijing!

Hi, I've been in Beijing for 5 days and looking to meet new people! Only found out I was leaving the uk 2 weeks ago so it's all happened quite fast! I'm working as an English teacher in the tongzhou district and would appreciate any advice on activities to do either around here or in downtown Beijing to meet more people! Thanks :)

Jenn hi

Welcome to Beijing.  Are you living in Tongzhou? I live not far from there.

I organise get toghethers every Tuesday. I see from your profile that you are creatively inclined so maybe this Tuesday's Creative Industries theme will interest you.

Welcome :)

Come down to Culture Yard, in Dongzhemen whenever you get the chance, we organise movie screenings and events for our students to all get to know each other!

Welcome to Beijing, I'm sure the rushed move feeling will settle down soon once you get your bearings:)

I suggest you may go to sanlitun for fun in weekends.
