› HOW I ACCESS KZfaq IN CHINA:
The VPN I'm using to access all the western websites from China (such as Facebook, KZfaq and Instagram) is ExpressVPN. You can get it here: bit.ly/2BgvMTI
I have used since 2015, and so far I am very satisfied. During certain times of the year, I struggle to get on it - but the great thing about ExpressVPN is that their customer service is always available through their live chat, and they always try to help me if I encounter any problems.
› ABOUT ME
My name is Miriam Follin. I’m a Swedish woman who has been living and traveling in China since 2015. 2017 I married and began living with my husband in his hometown in north western China. On this channel I share videos on life, culture and food in rural Qinghai, and sometimes little videos from other parts of China or from Sweden.
› THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!

This is so peaceful, touching, and full of love. The way you bring smiles to your family’s faces, the way you bring the two cultures together, are definitely some of the things humanity needs in this era. The last section when your family gathered to chant Merry Christmas in Mandarin, English, Swedish, and Qinghai dialect all together brought tears in my eyes. And as always, kudos to your background music selections! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Canada!

Merry Christmas Miram and family! This was such a lovely video and so nice to see how you (and others) celebrated this year. I know it is hard to be away from your family at this time of year but it must be really nice to have such a loving family around that welcomes your customs as your in-laws do. I got teary-eyed watching the end it was so lovely.

Sending much love from Germany. P.S. We are a Chinese and Korean couple :) I can relate quite much to you as my fiancee is also from rural area of China.

Merry Christmas Miriam, Yonghong, SanSan & sweet baby on the way. A very lovely video I have been waiting. You are awesome preparing Christmas activities through December and the best is Christmas Eve breakfast and dinner with all your beloved in laws. You have touched their lives and open the way for them to see a little of Swedish Christmasy. May God bless you and your family abundantly in everyway.

This is such a heartwarming clip Miriam… I can’t get enough of Yong Hong’s and your KZfaq clips. Ever since I stumbled upon your KZfaq, I’ve been watching them everyday for several hours a day and even up until 2-3am. San San is insanely goodlooking and extremely clever speaking at least 2 languages at just below 2 years old. Li An is super adorable and all he does is smile 😃… and not forgetting your parents in law are super supportive and love y’all unconditionally. I love watching her cook. She could just knead out any form of bread, dumplings… you name it. And of course not forgetting your Swedish family. Everyone is so full of love ❤️ I just wish I could understand Swedish to fully understand your videos made when you’re back in Sweden. Until then, I just have to catch up with all the KZfaq videos both of you made. There goes my sleep tonight hahaha 😝. Please give San San and Li An the warmest hugs for me.. take care, ❤️ from Malaysia 🇲🇾
