    Is this for real? Or a joke?

    Hi Sabine, it's very real i promise!

    This is what i do in Xi'an, business has been growing steadily and we're looking for more drivers to join the team! Videography skills are a plus since we offer a video option for our guests on tours.

    If you're interested or know someone who is, you can email Thomas directly at thomas@insidersexperience.com

    Cheers,
    Felix

    Can't see any pics here but the website was very well done.

    You have a great idea and awesome business there. I think it would not work that good in western world but in developing world there should be plenty of room for growth for your business, if you are skilled enough in business and lucky.

    You're website (agreed, very well done), under foreign languages offered, says you can offer guides that speak Canadian and/or Quebecois!

    Ya found some hosers, eh? Tabarnac!

    If you offer beaver tails, poutine and/or maple bacon, I'll definitely book a tour! Mid-January, of course, when the climate is more like home.

    Any ice hockey rinks in Xi'an? It is where we canookles settle our differences.

    I curse I am not there. I can guarantee that I would be very good in that job, if I just would have better English and could understand China.

    No one understands China. Those who say they do are only deceiving themselves. I've been here 23 years and understand less every day.
