Many of you have been extremely helpful on some other questions I've posted the last few weeks. Thank you for that! Now, I have another question/concern regarding the weather in Dec/Jan.
My family is moving to KMG the first week of December and we have been informed from multiple folks that weather will be an issue. We were told to expect frigid temperatures and plenty of sickness across the city. We have 3 children and are trying to prepare ourselves for the 'winter' in the 'mild' city of Kunming.
How do you typically handle the KMG winter?
Is it difficult to keep your apartment warm during the winter?
Is there anything we should bring (winter sleeping bags) from the States to help adjust to the winter?
We are from the midwestern US and winters are generally pretty harsh...but carpet and insulation make a huge difference. :-)
I'm moving my family to Kunming at the end of November and I'm curious on how we should best go about looking for an apartment. We've spent months browsing the forums/classifieds on GK and a few other sites...but it seems near impossible to get a good feel for the market.
Does anyone have any recommendations on where to begin my search?
