Benny,
Is the correct way to say i’m inside my house “Wo zai li mian de jia”?

Does “wai mian” mean outside?

Hi Kevin, you are right that wai mian means outside. But when we say I’m inside my house, we usually say wo zai jia li mian. And when you want to say I am outside, you may use Wo zai wai mian.
