**Firstly**, the moment I stepped into Beijing International Airport, my mind was flooded with thoughts of being an expat in China - it wasn't exactly what one would call a warm welcome. It's not every day you're met with a masked-clad official whisking you out of line for fear of catching something more than just your average cold from the outside world - and I'm sure that wasn’t the only thing fuelling my excitement, **secondly**, when it comes to being an expat in China, let's face this nation head-on with a dash of humour and some honesty thrown into the mix for good measure.
To start off: 1. Initially, you might be wondering what happened next after that incident - well the answer is simple enough; nothing actually happened. You would think there'd have been an immediate follow-up but no further action was taken from my perspective on this expat's journey through China in search of a better life; it really makes one wonder about how much attention they give to each and every one of their foreign nationalities - or lack thereof, for that matter.
2. **In the meanwhile**, there is an interesting thing: “Find Work Abroad” gives you skills like Python programming plus other software solutions which will be your passport out of this expat’s world into a brand new zone filled with career opportunities waiting to be seized; and all it takes is $70, as seen in "Mashable".
3. **Thirdly**, let's return to the subject at hand - I remember having my very own set of mixed emotions when I encountered Beijing International Airport for the first time: it was a mishmash of confusion on the one hand and pure excitement about being an expat, on the other.
4. **Fourthly**, speaking of which, have you ever come across this fact that not many are privy to? There is a little-known truth - China’s Great Firewall (a government-mandated censorship system) isn't so great after all when it comes down to its overall impact - however minuscule on the rest of world at large. This might explain why expats and travelers alike enjoy using tools like VPNs or Virtual Private Networks which in turn allow them to reach otherwise blocked content from around the globe.
5. **Fifthly**, I recall a certain something about my initial expat experience being so endearing - this was probably because it all began with an encounter that didn’t exactly leave me feeling “Welcome” right away, thereby setting off every single one of my alarms for having been "less than thrilled".
6. **Sixthly** , I can see why a lot of these expats go through what they do - or at least attempt to - considering all the effort it takes in order to get past those initial humps along their way: with some folks finding themselves lost and alone, others face cultural adjustment periods which are nothing short of an obstacle.
7. **Seventhly**, this brings me around full-circle on my own expat journey from start-to-finish - considering I am now a seasoned one by every possible means; as well as the discovery that some of us still require extra help: with "Find Work Abroad", you can gain technical skills such like Python programming, Java and more for $70 via Mashable, thereby putting your expat status to rest at last.

**Conclusion**: I now leave this article to you - what will it be? Will China have its way of making an impression that truly lasts a lifetime on all who cross her path, or perhaps the expats shall always remain as one-time visitors with their own set of mixed experiences from their very first day onward?
The initial response from Chinese officials wasn't exactly warm but rather than cold - this is something to think about when you are applying for your first work abroad via Mashable where Python programming costs just $70, and it opens the door into a world full of fresh career prospects as an alternative.

The following fact might come in handy: did you know that China's internet isn't actually the 'great' Firewall but rather is its weakest link when seen from a broader perspective - this makes for some interesting reading material especially if one wishes to see what lies beyond their government-muarioned censorship system, perhaps even more so than what those behind "Find Work Abroad" would have you believe initially by giving $70 in return.

In terms of getting your first 'Welcome’ as an expat or not - that’s the real clincher and has a lot to do with how both my fellow expats alongside myself ended up meeting such interesting times: this might be worth sharing, especially if Mashable could throw in some career assistance via "Find Work Abroad" right now - all you would need is $70.
For those who decide the ‘Welcome’ they receive isn't exactly what matters - it’s more than that which
