The wonderful small city called Beihai

I only spent a short two weeks in Beihai, a tiny city in the south of Guangxi Province. It features a beautiful beach, tons of good restaurants and not many people who speak English - the perfect location for immersing yourself in the Chinese language.
Everyone here is very helpful towards foreigners. While the organisation from LTLs side was great, I often tried new things in the evening by myself (when there weren't any planned social events). No matter what I did, even with my Beginner Chinese skills, people would always help me out and it worked somehow. Whether it trying out some streetfood, going to the gym or just general shopping.

Great place to quickly improve your Mandarin, planning on coming back!
