  • As it has just been my 3-year ‘Chinaversary’ and I have had a lot of new followers recently, I thought now would be a good time to share with you my China story and why I moved here in the first place. I hope you enjoying seeing a bit more about me and what I did before I came to China and also the reasons behind it.

    Great Video! I love it when people actually go to China to find out how it is actually like, rather than making assumptions about the country when they haven't actually been there before.

      Without CZcams, we would all be living pre 1980's before the WWW and continue to think China is just temples, pagodas and the Great Wall. Now we watch what we want to see and not what the media wants us to see. Thank you for sharing your journal with us Nico!

      Yeah nothing about the atrocities of the CCP , the slave labour camps , the lies about Chinese flu that cost hundreds of thousands of lives around the world , their silencing and disappearing of doctors , their threats to withdraw western supplies of antibiotics , threats to anyone who wants to investigate the Chinese flu outbreak . Massacre of tianamen square .. this lady would not be free to make videos if she decided to shed light on these issues , there is a reason the devil influenced eve to influence Adam , that’s why they allow this woman to go around making what she calls content but is now propaganda lol

      Eduardo Viajero sorry to hear that. Restaurant foods tend to lean more toward the more strongly flavored Sichuan Hunan type of foods.

It’s nothing like restaurant food. Oh how I miss it.

    I’m so glad I was linked to your channel, so much fun watching your videos.
    As a southerner (born in Yunnan) living in Beijing for more than a decade, I’ve got used to the life here in the north, which many compatriots from the south don’t. You’re right that China is so huge, which makes the difference between south and north tremendously big, not only geographically and climatically, but also in dietary habit and life style ...
    I saw you’ve experienced the beauty of ancient China (Beijing, Nanjing, Suzhou, Xi’an ...) and modern China (major cities) , so I would suggest you to go to the west and southeast of China as well to feel the beauty of nature, in particular Yunnan, western part of Sichuan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Hunan’s Fenghuang (Phoenix town) & Zhang Jia Jie (sets of Avatar), Xinjiang, Tibet etc.
    In the end, thanks for sharing your experiences with us, Nico. Look forward to the upcoming ones. Peace & love.

    Hey, Nico, I would like to see some contents about Guangzhou. After all, when it comes to food, Cantonese cuisine is one of the 7 major Chinese cuisines. and it will be interesting to know how you feel about it. Of course, when it comes to food 7 is way too small to describe the entirety of Chinese cuisine. Have a nice day.

    • @petrichor4753

      Dear John, actually it’s 8 in total, not 7. They are 鲁菜(Shandong’s) 川菜(Sichuanese) 粤菜(Cantonese) 苏菜(Jiangsu’s) 闽菜(Fujian’s) 浙菜(Zhejiang’s) 湘菜 (Hunanese) 徽菜(Anhui’s). And I agree with you that even these 8 major cuisines can’t represent Chinese food completely. Me for example, besides fascinated by Hunanese, Sichuanese and Cantonese cuisines, love Yunnan’s and Guizhou’s as well. 🍻

      It's more correct than you realise.
      I lived in China many years.
      And a lot of sources they use comes directly from Chinese people / Chinese websites / Chinese government leaks.
      Some media sound more angry than others but the basic information don't change because you can't change the facts.
      You can only present it in different tones.
      What the CCP has done they've done.
      There's no doubt what they've done
      Why they've done it is the the topic open for discussion and no one knows at this point.
      Neither WHO nor independent Investigation team has been allowed to investigate the lab to confirm or deny the final pieces of the puzzle.
      No one innocent will deny then block investigation
      No innocent party will hit back with the same allegations as they are receiving without ample proof.
      No innocent party will remove information as it is being discussed.
      No one innocent will make threats when asked about the facts.
      No one innocent will arrest it's citizens when they receive criticism.
      No one innocent will work so hard to hide the truth.
      That's why China got patriotic education.
      So people won't ask questions.
      But the truth is most students taking gaokao right now hate being taught how to be nationalistic.
      In the "west" education system is working very hard to make people less nationalistic.
      Because that's a source of extreme right / left wing terrorism and racism.

      @@user-vg9hs7xt8r I personally didn't know much about China before. I associated China with the great wall, hard working people, and being the manufacturing house of a lot of products. I've met some cool people from Mainland China as well. However, the actions of the CCP in relation to this virus are extremely disturbing and made me review more about them which led to me realizing that this wasn't new, the regime has a string of inhumane acts. There are too many horrible realities about China that have surfaced during the pandemic for me to view China in a positive light. I'm sure there are a lot of good things, but I see more harm than good coming from the CCP's government practices and influence on the world.

I had a rich friend who took me places. But when traveling alone, Guanzhou is not as charming as other cities. But I want to see the new tower... and Food in Guanzhou is delicious. Well Food everywhere in China is great. But best bao is in Guanzhou. If not this virus, I was going to Guanzhou just to eat.

But Guanzhou has Shamian island. I somehow like Wuhan better. I’m not a big fan of Shanghai either. I just like the idea of Shanghai. Shanghai feels cool. But Beijing is more interesting. Well, I didnt love Guanzhou. But before the lockdown happened, I plan to go to Guanzhou to get to Fujian or Hainan.
