Katherine's Journey to the East 阳离子东游记

Күн бұрын

Is life in rural China boring?? Why have my parents STILL not come to visit? Can I order packages to rural China? and most importantly of all... BABIES 😂

I feel that you epitomize the American spirit of the general American population, which I greatly appreciate, from my friends here in the U.S. Of course there are good and bad people just like anywhere. Unfortunately the bad ones seem to be likely ended up becoming politicians, and they run the country. That is how I lost my faith in democracy. I think the only hope to prevent conflict and build up better relationship among countries is to have people like you who are open-minded, optimistic, generous, and full with good-wills toward other people, whether Americans or Chinese or whatever, so the world can live in harmony instead of human tragedies all over as we are having right now around the globe, and not to mention the potential climate disaster likely to come.

I am a foreigner living in China, my husband's family lives in Ningxia, so we go there very often. There is a lot of archeological sites to visit, very interesting and so pretty ! Wish you also can enjoy the Helanshan pretroglyph and the Xixia mausolee :)

Your channel is so interesting and unique because you bring content that is interesting and unique and not easily obtained through the internet. You bring us into rural life in China that 99.999% of the population would never experience except living it vacariously through your videos. Another important aspect of your videos is that you are so genuine and intelligent. These are important character traits that are rare in today's quick sound bite world we live in. Keep up the great work!

Nah, not when you get bitten by that bug she shown there. A bite from that will cause you terrible fever. However, it is probably the case that you want to go to a geographic area that is not similar to where are used to. People in the tropics, want cold climate, vice-versa.

Wow what a revelation about yourself and your future in a personal level! I do wish and hope you will find a loving and suitable partner and build a family in Rural China! From your story, seemingly you are living in Utopia ! I live in a village in England but we don't even have 5G and our internet speed is diabolical! Like you I bought things online and delivered to my house. If I am not at home the deliverer will leave it on my doorstep and risked being stolen, you see the difference from where you are? I look forward to seeing your exploit in North China. Oh lastly we hope your parents would come to pay you a visit anytime soon. Take care! x

Although all these major achievements are great (amazingly fast and effective constructions of infrastructures, high-speed rail, airports, space station, lunar explorations, EVs, battery technology, AI leadership, aircraft carriers, money-less payment systems, etc., etc.), however the most aspect and characteristics of China is its peaceful nature in its global policies. The friendliness of its population toward visiting guests is another beauty of China. The tasty and affordable food also helps a lot.
