Q: What do you do with all your belongings when you're moving out of your apartment?

I mean far away, out of the city/province.

 

I'm sure you have accumulated a fair amount of things during your time spent there.

 

What do you do?

I took what I could with me. I gave some stuff to friends, threw trash away, and left a few things that were too good to throw out in the room. Either the cleaning person will use them, leave them for the next expat, or throw them away. It doesn't matter to me.

Take with you what you want, sell what you do not really want to take, and leave behind or give away what you can not sell.

Really, the only thing I've bought alot of are books. And when I go, they go with me, come hell or high water. Which is sad, 'cause when you move, books are just dead weight. But there it is. I'll spend the RMB to ship them with me. Now, whether or not they get there is an entirely different set of circumstances, lol.

Depends....most comments here seems logical and practical. Are you leaving for good to home or to another destination within CN? I move abit too....and depends as to if my next place provides housing or not? (furnished or not). You take what you need "practically', and the rest I guess you leave behind for the Landlord to offer to the next tenant. Should you find another place where another expat left behind say...a nice good heater for winter, then it's a bonus (u don't need to buy one then!). The big stuff.....sell it by having an ópen house'? or give it to your local friends etc.... Smile

 I stuff them up my arse.........stick my bare behind out of the window.........and fart. Anything that is still there after, I keep. My philosophy is; if I fart and a load of furniture and lamps and stuff comes flying out of my arse, I don't want that stuff anymore.

A:Good question!  I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
