After exploring Ireland for a month, I found myself back in Beijing, alone. In this vlog, I share my life in Beijing, and my journey of learning how to live alone by taking care of myself, making over my apartment, and making an effort to make friends. I also talk honestly about my money struggles of having to pay a higher rent without a stable income, and my decision to invest in myself.
