Q: Where can I buy wellies in Beijing?

Want to buy rain-proof wellies since it's been raining here non-stop. Anyone know of any shops that sell them?

Most bicycle shops sell those plastic cloaks. Cheap, ugly, but surprisingly and amazingly efficient!

non-brits may not know what you mean by 'wellies' (Wellington Boots) and only know 'rubber boots'.

         Sorry to say I don't know because I also had problems finding certain types of shoes. There are 300 billion versions of dress or running shoes but try and find something off-beat and where is it?

And I suppose almost all of those rubber boots are made in China. So where are they?

 

I'd have to believe somewhere like Silk Street Market might be the best possible chance you have. (and they do aim to find things westerners buy/like the most). 

         I do believe you will be the only person wearing what will appear to be ridiculous looking boots lol

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
