KELSIE

Kelsie is a 27 year old jack of all trades but a master of none, having dabbled in nursing and completing a film degree, she's currently living in Beijing as an English teacher to toddlers. When not teaching flashcards, Kelsie spends her time trying to learn Chinese, exploring Beijing and trying (but failing) not to order takeaway every other night. While 2020 was a year spent mostly shut away in an apartment, 2021 will hopefully be a year that Kelsie truly makes China her home. She hopes to share her experiences along the way, if only to make sense of it all herself. Also she might help anyone else who's thinking of emigrating far away from home or simply thinking 'China? What the feck happens over there?'
