  • Speaking Mandarin is a non-factor for visas. What you want is to have a useful skill that can gain you employment in China. The most popular (and arguably the easiest) is having education experience and a university diploma to go there and teach English.

    Don’t think that means you’d be free of America forever, though. There’s no path to citizenship for a white foreigner in China. But you can make a long-term career there and live very, very well.

    That being said, Mandarin is super useful for living in China. It solves a whole lot of problems in daily life. And if you really learn it to a degree that you can work in the language, it’ll open up a ton of better-paid employment opportunities.

    My recommendation is for you to go visit as a tourist. See for yourself what the country’s like. It’s a wonderful place but it can also be a real challenge as a foreigner because of cultural differences. Best to experience it yourself.
