China sounds lovely but there is a downside, for instance, they love to smoke everywhere, even in hospitals. Also, they will drop litter anywhere and dogs allowed to go where they want because the Chinese believe it's the street sweeper's job to clean everything up. And the really bad bit, stealing stuff is rife in China.
