Many foreigners come to China with great expectations. They are excited about living in this ancient land and experiencing the culture, language, food and especially, the people. They will find all of those things and more. However, there are some things that foreigners need to know before coming here. There are some warnings that they would be wise to heed about living in China. 

One of the first things that they need to know is that some conveniences they enjoy in the West, will not be available to them here. There are a few food items that won't be available here, however, with the wonderful Chinese cuisine that they'll discover, they likely won't miss those items too much. I won't list them all now, but, they should be aware that they will likely encounter this.

Then, I guess one of the more important aspects of living in China is to know that Chinese society is largely a self governing society. Most people have told me and I've found this to be true, that society runs by relationships. It is a 'who you know' world that you'll be living here in China. 

Finally, The rule of law, as is so different in most Western countries, it is not black and white here. There are traffic laws that aren't much different than laws in the West. However, most people ignore them unless they are near the occasional police officer or near a traffic camera. Westerners aren't used to this.
