There are many places around the world for a student or young professional to live abroad, but one of the most exciting and important may be to live au pair in China. As one of the economic centers of the world and a place with the largest population, there is no shortage of eye-opening experiences and things to see across the great country.

 

Whether it’s immersing themselves in the most populous metropolis in the world of Shanghai or experiencing arguably the greatest man-made wonder of the world at the Great Wall, China’s history, culture and way of life will make a memorable impression on any young person. Numerous high-level au pair in China programs exist, like Wanderlust Exchange, which will pair accepted English-speaking applicants with Chinese families for 3, 6 or 12 month periods to give them both an experience that will help promote their own cultural understanding and diversity.
