Then seeker should plainly write seeking Muslim.
Common netiquette to say: seeking rich, tall, handsome straight man or woman.
Tactless to say: no poor fatties, no shorties, no uglies, no gays. That just doesn't come out right. :)

To follow-up on Lijiang's beaten tracks where checkpoints may be of concern for foreigners, particularly as national day looms:
For main entrances to Old Town Lijiang, facial recognition implementation on the spot at turnstile. Your face will be photographed and facial biometrics unloaded to database in real-time for automated passage. For foreigners, passport info will also be recorded on paper.
Similar ordeal at Lijiang Railway Station. Face biometrics will be recorded and passport info written down.
Lijiang Black Dragon Pond Park requires presentation of ID. Screenshot image of ID/passport on phone would suffice.
Usual green health codes presented pro forma in above cases.
For Suhe ancient town further north, just show health code at main entrance, and make mandatory zero-fee Meituan purchase. QR code receipt to be scanned at turnstile. Laxed or no checks enforced at side entrances of Suhe 古镇 for frequenters.
No checkpoints whatsoever to smaller Baisha 古镇 closer to Jade Mt.
Less strict for Dali, but some smaller hotel/inns have been ordered by local police to not take foreigners due to the Ruili scare. Touch base to verify with hotels in advance. Bigger and more established hotels in Dali like Hilton, Dali International, Indigo, Argyle, etc. are fine.

Kunming Metro Line 4 and Line 6 (phase 2) officially in operation
Posted byJust a subway map, blob.
If Yereth hasn't started, perhaps take the easier route. Have someone shoot a high def photo of the official KRT poster at the station and upload the image here. They should have English pinyin alongside the Chinese. Done.
The first of gaggle of gulls has arrived
Posted byLocal news on Douyin is reporting first flock of sea gulls have returned to Haigeng dam. 20 days earlier than usual. Eye witnesses living near Dianchi, have you seen them first hand? Tough Q1 for them in Kunming. We, the locals and tourists, will make it up this time around.
Kunming one of best cities to live in China
Posted byAgree with all sentiments above. Absolutely love the climate here. Low humidity level agrees with me. Furniture don't rust nor get moldy.
When you visit other places in China, while mingling you tell people you're from Kunming or Yunnan, they'd often respond 昆明是好地方！And they are right.
I'd add Shandong is also a worthy destination to look into for those who haven't been. People amiability culture surpasses all provinces on average. The stereotype is valid.
JanJal, adding covid experiences, perhaps Kunming stands out more. Based on limited first hand comparison. Though I can't speak for outskirt Dali where showering is a rare, luxury commodity, lol.
