Looking for Laowai

Society & Culture


This is the last episode of the first season of Looking for Laowai! This week we talk about the transient nature of friendships as an expat in China, how people deal with this, and how they approach new relationships. Hannah and Toni are joined by friend and producer Averill, whose departure from Shanghai coincides with the end of this season. We’re sad to see you go, Averill, but we wish you the best of luck with the future!   This episode is dedicated to all our friends, new and old, here and back home. Thank you so much for all you have shared with us. Thanks also to every one of our wonderful interviewees for your time and for your golden nuggets of stories. And lastly, thank you to all our faithful listeners for your continued support and positive feedback.
