Kiwi in China
✨ Kia ora, I'm Nicola!
Life in Beijing, China 🇨🇳
Māori mum from Auckland, living in Beijing with my husband and daughter. Honest family life in China — the food, the cost, the culture, and what nobody tells you before you move.
Took a break from practicing law and now share videos about our life abroad, figuring out who I am without all the expectations of home and exploring life in China. Whether you're here to see more of what family life looks like abroad, life in China or figuring out how to belong somewhere that feels so foreign to you - welcome! I'm glad you've joined.
Click SUBSCRIBE so you don't miss out and I hope you enjoy the journey as much as I love bringing you along.

It's been 3 months living in China already! I'd love to know if you've thought about moving overseas and if you have, what's stopped you?

I'm counting down the days until the move abroad, but these days seem to drag on forever... Or maybe it's the piles of admin I have to get through that are making it feel like that.
