ChinaMate starts with our family in Hunan and friends across China. We believe the most useful connection is often a real person who understands the place — and takes the time to understand you.
We’re based in Hunan and can explore tasks elsewhere through our personal network or arranged travel. Availability, access and travel costs are confirmed for each request.
