We will always be available around the
clock, whether it be by telephone, by email, or talking directly to one
of our representatives right on the spot. And even before departing on
your adventure, you and your family can find the answers to questions in
the detailed packet that has been prepared for you.
We will try to cover the answers to some
of the most frequently asked questions by participants of our study
program.
Safety:
Larger cities of China are very safe, but
you still have to use common sense and try not to walk alone at night.
Tourist sites are a magnet for pickpockets.
Traffic:
Traffic patterns don’t favor
pedestrians, so you have to be very much on your guard when crossing
streets or riding a bicycle.
Medical:
Ensuring personal health and safety is
our number one concern and we have never had a problem with the health
or safety of any of our volunteers. We ensure volunteers can reach one
of our representatives
24 hours a day. We have safeguards in place to cover all possible
scenarios as to the health and well-being of everyone in the program.
China is generally a very safe country--urban crime rates are among the
lowest in the world, much lower than in major US cities, and the health
care systems in Beijing, Yunnan, and Hong Kong are state-of-the-art
and able to address any medical problems which might arise.
