The Journey of Building a Community Platform in Spain
After living in Spain for seven years, I recently made what some might consider a “silly” decision: to invest my time in creating a Chinese community service platform tailored specifically for our fellow Chinese expats. 🌍
Why This Platform Matters
Over the years, I’ve faced numerous challenges that many other expats might relate to:
- When looking for a job, the overwhelming number of WeChat groups can lead to confusion with mixed information.
- Searching for housing often means hopping between multiple platforms, only to get scammed in the process.
- Trying to find reliable moving services or language classes, yet lacking a clear direction on whom to trust or where to look.
🌪️ It’s not that Spain lacks information; rather, the data is scattered across various platforms, making it hard for us to find what we need efficiently.
Creating a Central Hub
With this in mind, I envisioned a space where you can:
- ✅ Find trustworthy job opportunities and post recruitment ads.
- ✅ Access genuine housing listings.
- ✅ Sell second-hand items.
- ✅ Locate reliable Chinese services in your area.
- ✅ Share daily life updates and make new friends.
Although I am not a programmer, I am learning as I build this platform—determined to make our lives overseas a little lighter and smoother.
Seeking Name Ideas for the Platform
Currently, the platform is still nameless, and I am open to any suggestions you might have. This isn’t just about entrepreneurship for me; it’s about staying true to my original intentions and helping our community thrive.
