    I am just a beginner and I thought maybe I could understand about half, however, I think I understood 90% because you speak so clearly and at a pace that my brain can just keep up with. Also, your story was extremely captivating so I was fully engaged. I have lived and worked in many countries in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia and I can relate to how difficult it is for so many people to find their place in this world. Most are trapped and have to just accept their pre-arranged life. You are an inspiration to others. I am so happy I found your channel, you have a great talent in teaching.

      Yes, that is a true statement! Having known many Chinese people and lived in China, I learned that most of them do have that way of thinking about the world. They think there are two basic groups of people: Chinese and “foreigners”. Chinese often have misconceptions that “Chinese people do things this way, and foreigners do things that way.” Really, there are many different cultures in the world. Chinese culture is just one among many, and there are no generalizations that can be made about “foreigners”.

I found this video inspiring and I’m so impressed that you followed your heart towards a life that makes *you* happy. That way, you can bring more of that happiness to others, as you have done. Somehow, your rejection of collectivism makes you *more* valuable to the collective, i.e. all the other people around you. You could not contribute so much if you were trapped in a miserable job, or a miserable life. Jīa yóu!!!

    I’m an expat living in China for 7 years already… What you’ve said about the mindset here is spot on. It is so difficult to have ‘normal’ conversations with my Chinese friends. I find that my conversations are all so shallow and meaningless and so nationalistic to the point that I prefer to just stick to meaningless simple conversations.

    I am Canadian, and have lived and traveled in many countries. I understand your frustrations with China, as I have experienced a lot of them living here for the past year. However, I am so glad to have the chance to live this experience - as China is so closed off from the rest of the world, I've had the chance to face my own prejudices, learn about a beautiful culture and lifestyle. As for the closed-mindedness, while it may be exaggerated in China because of the restricted internet access, I've found that trait in every country. Things are changing as many Chinese young adults are studying abroad and bringing their experiences back.
    Funny thing about the “你应该。。。” though - it's a common source of tension between me and my Chinese friends/boyfriend... but I realized they don't actually want to tell me what do, but it's a way of showing they care. But independent, 28-year old me doesn't want people telling me to button up my sweater! LOL

      So true. I have found its like this in every country I've lived (Germany, Netherlands, Spain) incl home country Australia. Seems like no matter where you're from there's always Conservative people (normally nationalist to some degree) who close themself off from the world and purposefully don't want to interact with people from anywhere else or that look different or speak different to them. Even the ones that aren't overt bigots still think their country is the centre of the world and everyone else is alien. But the world becomes more international everyday, at least I feel like younger generations feel that way (Internet generation), so these people will be left behind culturally in a way.

    I feel that frustrations you have with your country are the same frustrations a lot of people have with the country they were born in and spent most of their lives in.

      Sounds more like she hates the social order, and not because it's too "familiar". If it wasn't for the internet and western media, most of China would not know how conservative and repressed their beliefs and lives are. China is a huge place, and no one can truly be bored with it or too familiar with anything, in theory. It's the government itself, in it's effort to control everything and make a singular state, has turned everything homogenous and "boring".

      I agree with you. I have lived in quite a few countries in my adult life and they all got their issues and their more positive aspects. I have learned that I feel more comfortable in some countries than in others. I also think that as you said, for some people the stability of living in their hometown with their people is very precious, I would actually say that the majority of people would rather stay in their homecountry or even hometown, while some others are explorers and we need the space to move around, to explore and to find out our way in the world. Having some distance from family and the place you were born can bring some of that freedom as the expectations of what you should do or be like are removed.

    Honestly, some of the reasons that you mentioned are exactly why I want to leave my country too. Most people in my country are closed minded too and the society always want to boss around like, you shouldn't do this you should do that, get married early, do not dream, only work because apparently for them that's the best life...study hard and work. And I don't want to live like this. I am currently 22 as well. I want to explore and learn new things and do what I love in life and meet new people from every walk of life and experience new things. That's something really wonderful to me. Doesn't mean that I hate my country, I just hate this close mindedness of the society. I loved this video. Instantly subscribed 😁.

    I'm a US citizen, my son lives in Shanghai, and I've visited China 4 times in the past 10 years. I've been to many places in China, including 3 times to Liaoning province where I have friends, not a place many foreigners visit. I really enjoy traveling in China, I've only had good experiences with Chinese people, and if there are prejudices against foreigners I haven't noticed them. I think it's very important for Westerners and Chinese people to experience each other's countries, so that we can learn that despite the differences in culture, we have a lot in common.

    As a side remark, I feel sorry for you leaving China but honestly, Thailand is a fabulous country to live in too especially if you like Thai food as I do. One major barrier is the official Thai language which perhaps you've already overcome by now. On the other hand, China is also a good place to live too and I've considered moving there after living in HK for many years as I do not mind negative reasons as you stated.

    Your story is inspiring. My Chinese teachers in college exposed us to "real life" Chinese for listening; announcements over the loudspeaker in a crowded train station or airport, advertisements on the radio... listening to you made me realize just how intensive my language training in Chinese was because they spoke to us 95% of the time in Chinese at the same speed they would speak at home. I had Taiwanese teachers, teachers from Beijing, from Shanghai and from Lanzhou. So even though I've done no focused listening in Chinese for the last 12 years or so, I understood probably 65% or more of your story without looking at the subtitles. =) I just can't read anymore, and I have to think a lot longer before trying to speak Chinese anymore. I forget common words I could easily use in conversation after graduation. =(

    why people keep saying learn "Chinese". Chinese is not a language. It's Mandarin.

    我觉得你说的有点太夸张了。感觉像是十五年前或者二十年前的中国。那时候的中国人确实像你视频里描述的那样。但现在,起码是年轻人已经完全不是这样的了。

      大学毕业两年了,认识的人里大多数都在做不喜欢的工作为了稳定或者赚钱。好为人师的人还是很多甚至不觉得自己这样不礼貌,特别对于女孩子来说,每做一个决定都会有人否定和指责。
      或许不同的人看法也不同,但是博主这么看并且做出了改变的行动,而不是埋怨的同时又随波逐流,真的很令人钦佩。希望听到更多关于在泰国学习工作生活的指南~

      我也是中国人,承认她说的有那么难吗?大多数的国人还真的连国门都没出过,对世界大事也并不关心。很多人工作只是为了一份收入忍受着,虽然这一点在其他国家也如此,但我们的情况要重些

      事實上我在不同的工作上,遇到的中囯年青人跟上一代的不同,大部分都為了自己喜愛的工作奮鬥,有IT,有電影電視製作,有工程師,有劇作家,也有化裝師,攝影師,導演們更是愈來愈年輕!而且大多都不是富二代。

    I accidently came across your video and initially I was skeptical but I decided to listen anyway. From the start I was hooked. Truly the best conversational video out there. I would appreciate it if you would please post more lenthy videos about China. This is a double-win. People wish to learn Chinese and simultanously hear and learn Chinese. An ideal time limit would be 10-15 minutes. I especially like the way you posted the Chinese characters, English and pingyin. Awesome job. Soon you'll have a massive following. Xiexie

    You don't represent everyone in any country. Appreciate your work but stop talking like you know the country because you were born there. It's disgusting. Since you have a master's degree and full access to the internet, you should have done better research on the topic you talked about.

      She is expressing her opinion. That’s something many in China CANNOT do. You should respect her point of view. I wonder why you are you so sensitive about someone criticizing China. Could it be in your heart you know she’s right?

    I really love your video and loved hearing about your views and how you want to live. I've lived in China as a foreigner for 1 year and I agree with you on a lot of your points! It's so nice to hear a Chinese person say these things :) and also you speak at a good pace so it's easy for me to try and understand :)

    I understood 80% of it by reading the pinyin and listening to the story! You are remarkable and very courageous. As a Chinese learner for the past 3 years, now preparing HSK4, I truly value your videos. Opposite to you, I sometimes dream of going back and live in China! (I currently live in Canada, where is also too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter). Keep it up girl :)
