For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community. This website is maintained sporadically, people may still join and membership is still open, but if you are a spammer, stay away. The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date. There are plans to make it more useful for static information in the future. If anyone needs information about Changchun or China, you may post a message and it probably will get a response but not immediately.
China is a vast country of great contrasts, with quiet rural landscapes of immense natural beauty and large cities that represent China's economic growth, drive and power. Join us in this magical land of remarkable people, traditions, culture and languages.

A Roman Empire relics exhibition is now on show at Jilin Province Museum. I've been there for many times(don't have enough time to see everything at one time!). If you have interest, you should go and have a visit, too. It's so beautiful and wonderful. Very worth seeing. You know, people in this cold cold northeast Chinese city don't often have such a chance to glimpse the past glory of ancient Roman civilization!
The museum is in south of the Children's Park on Renmin Street.…

Beautiful chihuahua/papillion dog, just over a year old. Her former owner had to go back home and she's looking for a new place to live! She's had her first round of shots and does not have parvovirus. Comes with a leash, jacket, and some food. Message me for details!
See my photos!

As the year hurtles towards its climax, now is the moment for decision. In the cultural hit parade, it’s time to reveal what is Number One this Christmas. I know that some aesthetes will object to this simplistic hierarchy. You will say that it is like being forced to choose between Beethoven’s Fifth and the Sistine Chapel. Others will be partisans for one masterpiece or the other.
Ladeees and gentlemen, as we come to…

In this age of computers and smartphones, some of us are finding it harder and harder to write properly with one hand, let alone two.
But that is no such problem for Chinese translator Chen Siyuan.
She has been amazing onlookers with her ability not only to write with both hands at the same time, but do it in different languages - Chinese with one and English with the other.
