Come with me and my dad on a day and a half trip in Chongqing, China! This was recorded back in February (in case you're wondering why we were bundled up). We went to the must-see sights, like Hongyadong, Ciqikou Ancient Town, seeing the pandas at Chongqing zoo, and more...

Love this! I didn't know about this place. I lived in China a few years ago an am moving back soon. You gained a new subscriber!
Thanks🫶and welcome back! I highly recommend Xishuangbanna if you ever need a relaxing vacation somewhere tropical :)
@@ailianr Oh perfect! Thanks for the info!
china copied even Thailand
Is it possible to drop the URLs/shop names for the clothes and food? I've been surfing and looking for good shops on taobao.
Yeah of course! clothes: “vintage” sweater vest - 一炫批发店 purple hoodie - 迪丽服饰 strawberry shortcake shirt - 大璐璐生活馆 avatar sweatshirt * - 小美家外贸女装批发 food: japanese import - 妈妈咪呀日代小铺 international store * - vanilla groceries * I recommend these ones, I’ve bought more from them multiple times, though I'm happy with all of the clothes/food I bought in this video I’ve also ordered from 叽咕叽咕家大码女装 (the brown dress in my Mongolian wedding vlog) and I liked the quality, but while it's one of the more popular plus-size-carrying stores on Taobao, I’ve also heard it can be hit-or-miss, if you don’t need larger sizes there’s a lot better stores out there, but because I’m plus size in China, I haven't tried ordering from a lot of the more popular stores :,(
The loft is actually quite good, maybe because of how you designed it but looks so cozy and does not look cramped
Uma graça seu lar e seu gatinho. E bem espaçoso para vc e ele. E que bom que vc pode ter uma geladeira normal, nada de frigobar 😂, e uma lava-seca. Isso é essencial! E também gostei muito que o dormitório vc pode andar em pé 😂. Vejo lugares que se a pessoa esquecer, levantar da cama, bate a cabeça no teto. Gratidão por compartilhar sua fofa casinha... ❤❤
Very much unorganised.. could have been better 😢
Gui Fei = Noble Consort 🥹
Yes, I originally thought of naming her "Yang Guifei" lol, as my friend and I had a joke of calling ourselves "Tang Dynasty Beauties" (as we were both round-shaped), and Yang Guifei is one of the most famous women of the Tang Dynasty, but since the name was too long, she ended up just being called "Guifei".
Omg luv it ❤😊 Much Love from America
How did you pay for 5 months worth of rent for your first apartmen - like before you had accounts and stuff set up in Chinat? Did you use cash or was there a way to use a foreign bank account for what might be a pretty large transaction?
I already had accounts from when I lived here before the pandemic, but I also took out some of the money (from my foreign account in the ATM) in the few days before I moved in, and the realtor was nice enough to let me give the rest of the money a few days late
Hi girl, Do you still have the agency of this studio? I'm looking for something similar this summer:)
I can't remember what it was called, but most of these small hutong houses are rented out by smaller local realtor agencies
8:38 A d.i.y.-girl obviously.......
I'm from china but i'm in London my/English is not good😅ಥ⌣ಥ
rent or sell?
thank u for making this video 😭😭😭 i wanted to see what it'd be like to study abroad so this is very useful (。•̀ᴗ-)✧ is Beijing Film Academy a good place to learn animation?
It is! I actually have a few friends in the animation department, it is one of the best in China. I believe it splits off into 2D animation, 3D animation, Game animation (and there might be one more, I'm not sure). Though I've heard the best school for animation is CUC (Communication University of China), and the entrance exam wasn't as difficult (when I did it at least, I actually also got into animation at CUC but chose art at BFA). I think both are really good options, and if you ever choose to apply to study abroad for animation, I would suggest applying to both.
@@ailianr omg that sounds like a dream 🥹💕 I will definitely look into that, just to have the option of studying outside of the u.s ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
omg the rice cooker is so cute where did you get it i didn't know there are tiny rice cookers like that i hope it's cheap enough
it's a midea brand rice cooker that i got on taobao, if you're outside of china, i'm not sure if there are places that sell it, but the price is pretty reasonable (i paid 100rmb / about 15usd)
@@ailianr thank you so much for replying 🥰🥰 i'll see if i can get it
Wow, so pretty! The city isn't bad either :D
Welcome to xi'an
I heard Chongqing have spicy hot pot,my friends love it 🥰
Yes! Unfortunately, hot pot tends to make me nauseous, so we didn't eat any :(

was waiting for your new video!!!!! 🌸🌸
thank you for waiting 🫶🫶
hehehe first
actually i was first 🙄🙄🙄
i would love to live here in China Tiny house i am ok with this
Your apartment would be cute if it were clean and organized
The living condition in beijing hutong is generally terrible.
Since you know about the kidnapping you know more history than an ordinary Chinese. Jamming a lot of sight seeing in a short time. Hope you and daddy enjoy the tour.
wow i really like the apartment.. look so cozy🤩🤩
Nice❤
Maybe that skylight can be cracked open to let the warm air during summertime? That much space is actually a luxury in city centers in Asia, atleast in the country I live in. I used to live in a similar layout for a few weeks but quickly got tired of it(because the bathroom was upstairs).
ikr! and unfortunately we tried that, but it didn't seem to help :(
@@ailianr there also needs to be a source downstairs that pulls cool air in creating sort of a cross breeze. But it really doesn't help much when the temps get too high. Congrats on your move, hopefully that issue isn't in your new place.
Beef bun and soy milk, your stomach’s almost Chinese.
This is the real authentic and original version of the “Japanese culture”, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Japanese culture is a replica of the Tang Dynasty. Xi’an and Luoyang were ancient capitals of 13 dynasties, including Han dynasty and Tang dynasty, the two golden ages. Google search for “Japanese missions to imperial China” and “Japanese missions to Tang Dynasty”. Japan sent tons of kentoushi 遣唐使 to wholesale copy the Tang culture back to Japan. Nara Period and Heian Period were contemporary periods of Tang Dynasty, and saw suddenly blossoming of Japanese culture becuase those envoys applied everything they had learned in the Tang imperial court back to Japan. Nara and Kyoto (formerly Heian-kyo), capitals of these two periods, were built based on the model of Chang’an, modern day Xi’an. Xi’an was also the capital of the Qin Dynasty (221-206BC) which preceded the Han Dynasty (202BC - 220AD), which reunified China after the broken up Zhou Dynasty that resulted in the Spring-Autumn and Warring State Periods. Qin Shihuang (Qin = Qin Dynasty; Shi = Beginning; Huang = Emperor) Ying Zheng (his name) built the Terra Cotta Army and the Great Wall of China, and standardized weights and measures, chariot axles, currency and writing system. From Xi’an was also where Han Wudi (Martial Emperor of Han Dynasty) won the battle against Xiongnu and annexed Yuezhi, modern day Xinjiang, and opened the Silk Road to connect trade with the Roman Empire. So Xi’an is loaded with ancient Chinese history. If you want to revisit the authentic Japanese culture, revisit the Tang Dynasty capitals Xi’an and Luoyang. If you want to revisit the authentic Korean culture, visit the Ming Dynasty capitals Nanjing and Beijing. Japanese culture = Tang Dynasty culture replica. Korean culture = Ming Dynasty culture replica. Japan, Korea and Vietnam are collectively called the Sinosphere….❤❤❤ We went to Xi’an and Luoyang a few years ago. Visited historical locations like Terra Cotta Army, Huashan, that Tang Dynasty imperial garden Huaqing Palace, Muslim Street, Bell Tower and Drum Tower, Great Wild Goose Pagoda and Small Wild Goose Pagoda and the Ancient City Wall. We also visited the Daming Palace Archaeological Excavation Park. Daming Palace was built by Wu Zetian during the Tang Dynasty. Then in Luoyang, we visited the Longmen Grottoes where the biggest Buddha bore the face of Wu Zetian, the Empress of Tang Dynasty. I don’t know if you tried the roujiamo, which is the grandfather of hamburger. Since Xi’an and Luoyang were capitals of so many famous Chinese dynasties, they are loaded with ancient archaeological sites from those dynasties. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from a Chinese American from Los Angeles.
Spring and Autumn is the best time to visit Xi'an, winter is cold and smoggy.
Sorry but Xhina have the dirtiest toilet.

Very cute and functional/cozy apartment. Good for you! And your cat is absolutely beautiful. I've never seen a pure solid white cat!!!! Gorgeous! Suggestions from an ole lady who lived in a studio apartment for years. Go through weekly and begin to toss those things that you really don't need to have around anymore. Or put in box and slide under the bed. Keeps things simple and uncluttered.....which keeps the mind clear. Good luck with your life there.
Beautiful

5500 yuan a month for a whole unit in central Beijing I think it’s very fair price lol I like to watch beijing hutong house tours, I stayed in a hotel inside a hutong when I visited. It was pretty cool and the amount of public toilet there was shocking lol
Feel like first time!
