things we miss most about china: the food and the safety. I don't have to explain food, but safety... there's just an indescribable feeling of peace where you aren't constantly on guard for your personal safety when out and about.
@Nicofilms

Totally agree about the safety it’s such s as relief not having to think about your stuff.

omg that's the main reason why i want to move to China...im born raised in America and when i visited China because American media doesn't really show China in the brightest light, so i wanted to visit it for myself. The peacefulness in that country is as you described it, indescribable.

Awesome video Nico. There is so much value you put here into an 11 minute video! I think your points particularly on working culture and job opportunities are really relevant. These aspects are really difficult to know / find credible information online, before potentially being in China. Keep up the great videos!
