There are a handful of western restaurants and you're definitely able to get some much craved home comforts from the local Walmart or carrefore which is opening next year. One of the biggest advantages of being in this part of the world is the scenery. Around 5km Outside of the city you'll be completely surrounded by stunning mountains, rice terraces and waterfalls.

Temperatures are usually between 25-30 degrees in the summer and around 8-13 degrees in the winter. When it comes to expat life in Yuxi, there isn't an enormous expat community.

Everyone looks out for each other and will do as much as they can to make new teacher's lives as comfortable as possible.
