Yeah, they’ve been around for years though. These younger intern/backpacker types that only come for one year and bugger off are more common than they used to be.

And some of them are bloody good teachers well-liked by their students. Still, I wonder why they come to China as young adults. I think they're wasting their time over here. They'd be better employed trying to find real jobs in the west.

China's tailor-made for middle-aged louwai and older folks who are seeking cushy numbers, especially those who drink and smoke. Much more freedom to do so, and very cheap too!

That's what I think. But I'm not asking readers to debate this with me. In fact, I won't enter into a debate about this. Just my opinion, that's all!
