In Episode 2 of "Alex In The City", I share my experience renting an apartment in China. I was surprised by what fully furnished means in China compared to the rest of the world. I'll give you an inside look at what is needed to start your life in Chongqing, China.
When shopping for furniture, I was happy to find China has Ikea. China became one of the many countries where IKEA implied its internalization strategy. Ikea is a Swedish company and designs its products in Sweden, but many manufacturing facilities are located in Asia, where China is a critical hub for outsourcing. As of August 2019, IKEA in China has opened 28 stores countrywide.
Editor's Note
My name is Alex, and I have recently moved to Chongqing, China. I was born in Canada, but I have always been interested in China. The population of Chongqing is similar to that of my country. Some people might think that a vlogger it's just a person talking about him or herself, and maybe that's how it was many years ago. Some vloggers create educational content, and others talk about their political views or experiences. I try to inspire and motivate people to change their perceptions about China.
I will not only show you China, but I will show you my accomplishments and my struggles. Join me as we explore China together.
