Q: Did you ever wonder why and how this happens in China?

I have every window and door in my apartment closed yet a layer of dusty grit accumulates every two weeks and I have to clean. So I bought a air cleaner that does my whole apartment and the filter inside gets clogged maybe every two weeks as well (but its a lot easier to just clean out the filter than the whole house)

 

So I was wondering how does all this crap get into the house??? They do not use HVAC Central units in China so now I am truly puzzled.  Any ideas?

It's related to the air-tightness of your apartment. How much space between the bottom of your door and the floor ? A few millimeters loose can make a difference. Same goes for the windows, I've seen my lot of loosely closing windows here.

 

Standard, quality, craftsmanship, all those things have their own level in China. Like, craftsman almost never learned their job in a vocational school or through an at least semi-formal apprenticeship system.

It's probably your Western female friends who come to your place to do their Chinese homework together. If they wear skirts, it will be easier for your filter to get clogged. It can get very very very dry and dusty down there for Western females in China.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
