Thanks Katherine, you made me realise that the Chinese Government really cares for it's people. Lovely.
What is Uncle Bob TH-cam?

Do ppl still use instagram? 😅
"You are from northeast China, I am a local" this sentence is too classic!! I also know that Hainan Province is now going to many, many northerners, my parents have also bought a house there, and my hometown is in the northwest of China😂😂😂
Thumbs up
海南是东四省
Locals mean local born.
哈哈 你怎么打的英文 😂lol
Nice one! Unble Bob, if you are reading this - most of those who asked you where you are from were not being aggressive or phobic of any kind. They were just surprised to see a non-Chinese in the middle of nowhere. They were even more surprised when you told them you live there. They just don't know how to respond.
Agree. Actually no big deal.
@Danny Qin, at least they don’t tell him to go back to where he came from like so many Asian people often get told by the Americans whenever they walk by or worse get murdered by some racist lunatics (Talking to you BLM folks).
@@grandwonder5858 but you can not "go back" when they told you "go back", if you do, Americans will call you 'traitor'😅
你怎么不说说美国对待华人华裔和亚裔呢？还有美洲本来就不是他们的，是别人印第安人原住民被屠杀掠夺而已，他们是移民国家，我们中国不是移民国家别把那种移民思想拿到中国，中国是中国人的中国，靠的是我们上下五千年历史文化文明还有我们聪明的祖先建立起来的，不是这些外国能理解中华文化和中华民族的伟大和成就，我们欢迎友好遵纪日本大多數媒體還是反中反華的，大多數日本反華和反中，畢竟日本主流是帝國主義右翼的人才还有好人来中国旅游，学习，工作，但是中国不是移民国家，别以为来了中国就以为是当地中国人没有资格敢走外国人。我们可不是移民国家靠移民发展。
Like the black basketball players racially abused by Hans recently?
From your videos I am discovering China, a country which I didn't know at all. A very beautiful insight of this nation. Thank you
Glad you like them🌞🌞
Thanks to Katherine in sharing your life and traveling in China… show us more about my motherland… since pandemic… we can not travel and this is the only way of travel thru your channel… for sure following Uncle Bob living in China too🥰🥰🥰
This is what real freedom in a peaceful country. Even a white elderly Uncle from the western country can wander around in the remote area alone without have to worry about being robbed, bullied, or facing any discrimination. Instead, he is well respected by the friendly locals. If a Chinese elderly man doing the same thing in those 5 eyes countries, he probably be punched on the face by young local men or ask to go back to Asia.
Yea, uncle Bob is truly turning Chinese!!😂😂 Great fun video guys, thanks! 👍👍
Wow, it is such a beautiful and peaceful place. Thanks for another awesome video. Seems Wei is doing better. So happy to see him smile. Having a ton of fun traveling around China!
"The only one of your kind here." I liked that. Mostly, birds of a feather flock together. Your British friend, Uncle Bob, is, indeed, a bird out-of-place.
very sad, just like the last of the mohicans :D
I wish China would open up for tourism again. I so want to visit some of these places. Thank you Kath and Wei for these videos.
let's hope the covid pandemic end soon
This kind of life is exactly what I've always been dreaming of! Travel around and suddenly fall in love with some small cities or towns then decide to settle down😍
Hainan is indeed a tropical paradise in China.
The temperatures during the winter months are very pleasant, ranging from 18'C - 26'C.
true👍
Your mix with animals always make me smile. Those chicks were so cute.
I only know about Wuzhishan (五指山) from one Journey to the West (西遊記), one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature.
Also, enjoyed to watch that he is glad to see you in person, and a Western foreigner, too, so that he will not be alone in a peaceful life. ⛰
I am the monkey living under the mountain!
@@hainanbob6144 Hello from Australia !!!
That is Wuxingshan(五行山) not 五指山
@@danli901 yes, actually many Chinese make the same mistake😅
哈哈确实
From your journey to every part of China, I think it will be really interesting to visit China and experience the same experience as you.
Hi Kat. You are so lucky. Smart people make luck for themselves.😂
I have followed your journey for a few months now and I have found your videos very informative and entertaining, I just subscribed because I would love to kee watching.
I really love your videos, the people you talk to and the scenery is just wonderful! I feel very warm and happy when I see you and your husband {don`t want to leave him out} in this fog I live in called the u.s.! They have passed a law that states the u.s. government won`t tolerate Americans speaking up against the government but it won`t be permanent while they are arresting Americans for any reason they want. It should sound familiar if you read and know History! Thanks for all that you do and for the smiles, we need you!!!!

Love to hear your stories, Katherine. You are telling story well; I am never tired of these kind stories. After we retied, we'd love to invite you and Wei be our guest to our home too, if you visit our area (could be anywhere, lol). But guess at that time you might be too famous, and being a celebrity probably would make you inapproachable by then!!!
Didn't know the 'snowbird' phenomena is so prevalent in China. It is definitely a very Canadian thing. Learned something new from this video.
Uncle Bob, what a happy, grey hair foreigner, yet a local in Hainan Island.
The weather of Hainan, may be compared with Thailand or Vietnam.There are many Russians, and Northern Chinese would spend their winter in Hainan.
as well as Japanese, South Koreans and a number of Europeans too
Wonderful. Glad to see you and Wei are doing well. I love this place you just showed us. God Bless you both. Your devoted friend from Florida.
Hi. Uncle Bob. Happy CNY to you and wife. And many more CNY.
Great to see a waste treatment plant and concrete roads built by the government for the people for trade. Nice place. Cheers
What a wonderful place...
It's heartwarming to see uncle Bob is happy to begin new adventure in life
Katherine, love your zeal to push on on to every nook and corners around China ( is a big place to explore ). 👏👏👏
And you able to converse in Mandarin 👍
👍❤️❤️Happy Valentine’s Day Katherine, your background made me feel like I’m just right there with you and following your bike to whenever you go . Mom is gone just a few hours later after I saw your last message . When I woke up this morning I forgot she left . I used to grab my phone just to click your video to go to her room as part of my routine to tell her mom let’s see what’s new with Katherine today even though it’s the same video but I accompany her to watch the same one over and over cause mom has dementia but she has already remembered you because we watched too many times . I used to click your video no matter if it a new one or we just play the same video over and over . From now on I will watch your video alone and thinking about all memories I had with mom while we were watching together . We never know what’s going to happen tomorrow it’s why we must treat each day is the last day and try to live our life the fullest will always cherish every moment we can spend time with our loved ones so we have no regret . Mom loved natural and animals . Mom also told me “ Katherine is a very special young lady who loves to explore China and learn so much about history and culture differences through many people just by listening how fluently her mandarin is to know how much passion she has “ How you feel is how I feel for America and I experience the same kind of difficulties even much longer than you do ever since I was little but that doesn’t change my love for many people who live around me and many of them do care about me and love me dearly specially many of my friends here in US and some of them are white , Latin Asian black as well . they all have been very supportive through out my life until now Even the government here initiate any inappropriate language towards people like me but their selfishness doesn’t change my passion for my community and my friendship with many of my friends here . It doesn’t change my vision to live the fullest of my life and how much my love and caring for people will never end . I have faith in God . I hope you do too . Love is to forgive as how God always forgive me as how my parents used to forgive me that’s true love and that’s the real definition of Love .I will always always be there for you and encourage you and think about you no matter where you are . Do not give up your dream . You must realize no situation is permanent, no one can be number 1 forever but what’s the most important thing is never give up our hope . Never stop loving , forgiving and support each other no matter where we live . We are all living in the same planet . Don’t forget that ! I hope one day we could cross each other hug each other to say that we finally made it .Even though losing my mom made me devastated but I remind myself mom is rested in peace would want me to continue my journey and I want to care about people as I always do . I will always support your blog for as long as I have a phone . Mom used to watch with me that light up her daily life . I will pretend she is next to me whenever I see you with beautiful villages and many kind people in China in your future video . Thinking about you . Please take care ❤️🥰
Happy Valentine’s Day to you too and so sorry to hear about your mother, my condolences 😭😭😭hope these videos can help a little to cheer you up during this sad time 💔 may she Rest In Peace 🍂

Amazing life story...love that area ..on my bucket list when I go back to China ..hopefully soon ..regards from Canada
Loved this vlog! It's so interesting seeing Uncle Bob's life in a part of China that is so different from what I've seen. It looks so beautiful. My husband's family has condos in Sanya, and I'd love to visit in the near future!
My wife is from Dalian, i love the rural areas outside the city!
I live in Hefei (Anhui) and visit rural areas all the time, i just love the culture/atmospher there.. nice video guys. hats off to uncle BOB
I have been watching your video from the start and am in love with it
Your videos are absolutely heart warming & educational. Thank you for always taking the time to connect with locals, which enables the locals & your viewers know how enriching life is when you connect with people around you regardless of how long it is. Exchanging kindness goes a very long way. Much respect & love for all you & your beau do. GODspeed to you both.
He is definitely a local I can see uncle love the place and is fully compatible with the neighbors nice
This is so cute! Thanks for sharing.
Love to uncle Bob and his wife.
Tell him to go whole food plant based. He will love another twenty years.
I didn't know Hainan is such a beautiful place apart from Sanya as Chinese. Thank you for showing so many amazing parts of China to me. It is terrific to have bilingual subtitles👍👍👍
It's such a harmony to see a British man living with his Chinese wife in a remote tiny Chinese village.
I can’t stop watching your videos Katherine,love it.
Soooo lovely! Love the travel stories and people we met on the road with you Katherine and Wei together.
I love your videos, Katherine. It’s unique, ranges from urban cities to rural areas. 👍
Nice to see your Wei accompanying you on your travels.
Such a lovely place. Country side feelings within city reach
Loved tnhis adventure. You are the real thing, Katherine!. Much
Love to you and my motherland from California💕💕💕
Another amazing video!
很开心看你们这一期的旅行节目，这么好的地方很适合养老，不如顺便也介绍一下，当地买房房价，租房价格，物价，一年四季的温度和湿度，让大家有个立体的了解，这样很多中老年朋友 也会多一个养老的选择。
Oh wow! How interesting :)
I don't blame Uncle Bob - it looks like a very tranquil and peaceful spot!
Interesting episode! Kind of wish it'd last longer!
Uncle Bob are so nice and friendly. Glad to have someone full of energy.
Great video! Wuzhishan is a fantastic and unique place in Hainan. I will definitely find time to visit Uncle Bob!
You're amazing katherine sister as always, God bless you and bless your family amen 😉☺️
Hi Katherine and Wei, It is nice watching your exploration of China town videos. Stay safe, healthy and happy. Do your best and good luck! 🙏🏻👍🏻😍
👍👍👍 As usual, love your charming vlog of people you meet in China villages. 💐😘🧧
Blessings.
A fan of you from the honest drink vlog, keep it up gal n boy
Loved this story. This is what life is about.
Enjoyable vlog, thanks for posting 👍
Thanks for sharing! Keep it up!
阳离子的视频真的好，作为一个外国人，也不舔中国混流量，就是单纯的讲故事，很真实。
Always fill with pleasant and peaceful feeling by watching your videos, 😊😊
I am from Manila, the Philippines.
But I have my "roots" back there in Fujian, China!
我是您的粉丝了 Katherine!
Very beautiful and peaceful mountain village, a perfect place for retirees
Wow. That final meal! 🥘😋🏆
Thank you Katherine for making these videos of your cycling trips (and camping in a Tesla) I loved them all.
好期待下一期啊！善良美好的的人总是遇见善良美好的人。
这句话是金句啊！
Lovely Katherine!

Uncle Bob is adorable
Amazing story!
Hi Katherine. I love your videos and I learn English from your videos. Thank you
happy new year uncle Bobby.
That is so nice there. 🤩
Looks like a peaceful place.
Nice vlog!
Nice video!
Love your channel
Nice video ☺️
這個老爺爺好可愛
"Here is the donkey." Gotta love British humour.
You speak very good mandarin wish you always happy ❤
Beautiful scenery no wounder Uncle Bob choose this place
Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍👍👍
云南也很适合生活，如果我跟我老婆不外派美国工作的话，想等有了孩子去云南一个叫弥勒的地方。羡慕你在年轻时做了对的选择，我们现在岁数大了，年轻时忙于工作现在又要考虑要孩子的问题，没办法这么快乐自由
Wow interesting place
The old man speaks pretty good Chinese.😱😱
My condition of subscribe foreigner in China channels is the owner must speak decent Chinese. I regard people who praise China yet not put efforts to learn the language being potential opportunitists.😐😐
It looks so beautiful and tropical there, to think the northern provinces are frozen, such contrasting places ❤️🇨🇳
wow, it's really so beautiful where live in here
Bless him and his wife.
Thanks Kate for bringing Wuzhishan to my living room in Singapore.
😎😎
好耶 更了
Keep going.... 👍
Wat an interesting video. Kinda nice to see this side of hainan
Those goats at the end is living a dangerous life😂 yolo.
very gratifying to see Hainan hasn't softened uncle bob's upper lip
支持你正能量
Good ol' Uncle Bob one of my country folk.
