We road-tripped 3-weeks across high-altitude Tibetan Sichuan - 50 minutes of Wild China
Tibetan China is difficult to access so we were excited to have a chance to explore by campervan; it made enduring the frosty nights and mornings possible. The culture and landscapes in this part of the world are simply fantastic and the 4-5000m altitude in parts really adds a surreal touch to it all that is impossible to portray here.
I hope our experiences here can give you a window into this remote realm!
PS. For clarity: this is the Tibetan part of Sichuan in Western China, not the Tibetan province (where you would need a guide and be limited to exploring set destinations).
Thanks to 房车生活家 for the campervan.

I cried 8 times and was healed | My first 10-Day Silent Vipassana Meditation Retreat
มุมมอง 12014 วันที่ผ่านมา
Since the first time Scott completed a 10-day goenka meditation retreat in Bali, I've been very curious about vipassana. Now I finally know what Scott's been doing when he's been sitting in silence every day, and on the way, I learnt more about myself.

มุมมอง 230ปีที่แล้ว
Singing Bowl Therapy sounds like mystical, pseudoscientific experimentation when you first hear about it, yet the experience is quite profound. The whole-body relaxation you acquire after a singing bowl therapy session is evidence enough for its healing effects. It's a very natural and calming technique to help your mind still and go to sleep. Thank you Deepak for helping us to try!

    Hey Ella & Scott, I started watching your channel to improve my Chinese before my first trip to China in August this year. I started to explore more of your content and it turned out that you're two amazing human beings. I got inspired by your story and how you navigate your relationship. I also turned 30 this year so I can relate to so many things and thoughts our generation share...I'm doing yoga almost every day, I struggle with mediation (was also doing Win Hoff method for some time). I just can't find peace in my mind, anxiety kicks in the moment i wake up to run the mundane schedule. I spent 2 weeks in Beijing this summer and got totally mesmerized by China...I also met someone there and we found ourselves attracted to each other, which totally messed my return to Europe. I constantly feel I'm missing out something in my life now, and I'm growing so many doubts in my head. I'm living pretty boring life here, just bought apartment with my girlfriend (mortgage ofc.) and have an office job; it's stable but these things doesn't satisfy me nor bring joy. I just felt I wanted share it with you, don't know why, lol, probably because this video focus so much on inner self. Anyway... wish you all the best for your future endeavours, even though you have small audience, your content is top notch. Thank you for sharing your story🙏🏻

      Sounds like our lives have some crossover :) I feel like getting good at life is getting good at making the right decisions, that’s all it is. And meditation has definitely helped both of us get clarity on what the right choice is sometimes, especially because it seems to help slow everything down when the world can feel like it’s spinning too fast. I’m happy our films could give you something and I’m sure you’re on your way to a better place, even if it feels winding. Live life for you!

      @@EllaScott thank you for answering. Yeah, you're right. It's all about decisions and trade offs, what can we sacrifice and what we just have to accept. and I'm conflicted by desire of wanting to have it all, experience as much as I can but at the same time having the comfort of stability. Life is short and that triggers anxiety (especially after experiencing China for two weeks...) knowing that every day of hesitation works against me. I hope that getting back to simple medidaton and some breath work will make decision making process a little bit easier. I'll be watching your endeavours as I'm curious how your relationship will grow what your life will turn into over time. Best wishes from Poland, Jakub ( 湖明泽).

The whole “pee” scent comment was unneeded, next time please book a nice airbnb or a hotel where you’ll have those amenities. Just because you have been inside on resident doesn’t reflect the entire city. Let’s avoid the generalizations we are making here. UB is a modern city with inequality just like any other city in the world. There has been a strong move to rehouse the ger district into apartments but the rural to urban migration trend has been growing.

      Hey! Thanks for your comment and I’m sorry if it caused offence. We try to travel as slow as we can to really get a sense of a place and help us get a more rounded view but a week is still only enough for general impressions. We shared our real experiences, nothing more, and I think it was the (enormous) gir district that left the biggest impression

      ⁠@@EllaScottnot unlike rural parts of China that are dirt poor. I stayed for a night in a motel near the Beijing airport because it was convenient. It was one of the dirtiest, most disgusting places I’ve ever stayed at. I didn’t even take my shoes or clothes off to sleep because I was afraid of catching bed bugs.

    Cool adventure, the ger looked more modern than I thought with a flat screen TV and a fridge. And the daughter's place looks quite modern like the interior could be a British home (albeit without the pee stains).
