Purely in terms of the pursuit of leisure and pleasure how do Kunming and Dali compare?
I ask because after spending the month of February in Kunming I have the option of spending March in Dali and beyond.

I will be needing accommodation in Kunming early in 2009. I am looking at a three month stint from January through to April. I speak Mandarin, read Chinese, teach English play guitar and chess, and am a Londoner (Barnet). Any offers/suggestions/leads appreciated.

我2009 念初要住在昆明，需要找到房间。希望有人能帮助我。我会普通话，念懂中文，教英文，弹吉它，唱英与汉哥，以及打国际象棋。名字叫公孙海，英文名字叫克里斯，是从伦敦来的。

I am contemplating an eight week visit to Kunming from mid-October to mid-December to see if it's a nice enough place to live for an extended period next year. I have a masters degree in Chinese and several years experience as an English teacher. Is it easy enough to find temporary part-time teaching work paying around RMB125 a class?
Any leads/offers?
