L.I.F.E : Living In Fear of Extinction

I've been to Guanzhou about three times, and on all instances it was during the winter. I was impressed with the weather,.. warm throught out the year.Very different from Shanghai.

More than anything, i was surprised at the number of black people there. Also the Chinese population there is so used to seeing foreigners, they dont stare as much. ;D ;D

Cool place, but i hear crime is high.

Hi, welcome to GZ. how long have you been in GZ? The long you have been in GZ, the more you like it. As matter as fact, the living cost is most cheap in all china big city( shanghai, BeiJing, Shenzhen), you only cost a little money to buy good products and service. 

People in GZ are very practical, they don't look down you by your clothing or shoes. they can have business meeting with you in  T-shirt and slippers. you can wear anything you want!

There are so many african in my living district in GZ. It seems like they enjoy their life in the district. people in this district use to seeing african, so they are kind to them. the kids more like african because they often get the candy from african .

It's true crime is higher than other city, especially rob lady by motomachine but I never hear of african were robbed, maybe you african all look like strong and powerful, robber are afraid of you.
