I extremely recommend this website. It offers language service and all the interpreters there are students from all over the country, so it’s trustworthy. The website provides a program from which the local students can have a part-time job as an interpreter. If you don't know Chinese and are not familiar with the place you go, they can be your language assistant and tour guide at the same time（They won’t force you to go shopping, because that is not allowed according to their work instruction）. They also offer other kinds of translation service.

If you don’t want to live in the hotel and want to live in Chinese people’s home, this website can help you. There are foreign members and Chinese members here. Chinese members introduce their houses there, from which you can choose the one you want to stay in.

If I find out other useful websites, I will add them here. You can also contact me by writing e-mail to 346407505@qq.com. ^^
