For the most part, the Changchun Friends website is not very active and has been superseded by the Tencent "Wechat" app by the local expat community.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 The archived information here is still useful, but some may be out of date.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.

pic. no 17 have a different base as the others because author translated to English by own self the meaning of different language. As example I can use the word like this "babka" in Polish this means "pretty girl" but in Slovakian language this word means "grandmother" so who is wrong ? ofcourse nobody - you can´t translate everything to English :-) ( the tea on picture is pure Chzech)
