This is not an precise "how to" do search in China.  Rather this session offers a collection of tips and strategies to increase likelihood of positive outcomes. This information is compiled  from years of travel search assistance, following the work,  and observation, coupled with individual anecdotal summaries.  This session provides insights into likely avenues, useful tidbits and cultural insights.   It is an important topic that can create ripples of consequences into future generations, so it is topic approached respectfully and offer some attempts at wisdom of balancing the complex characteristics of the adoption triad.  We hope to offer tips forr good outcomes, while minimizing time wasters.
