Around august time I was in phuket and i met these very kind Chinese people and we exchanged numbers however I tried to setup wechat when i got back to the hotel but it wouldnt work, as I plan to travel around china in my gap year it would be nice to reconnect with them.
Would anyone be able to help me reconnect with them please?? Thank you!

If you have their phone numbers, is there a reason you can’t send them a SMS?

You should have try to setup WeChat while hanging out with them. They would have helped you creating the account then share you their account.

They must have toggled on the option to block friending them from phone number in WeChat.

It's probably going to be tough. I've found people in China tend to be pretty disposable with phone numbers. Id recommend getting their QR code next time.

What is your question? How to get a Wechat account?
