    Honestly I’m with Leo on this one. Staying in HK seems a lot more healthier for you and your family. I don’t know how safe America really is! Plus you have your loved ones always by your side in HK. Just find a bigger place or smaller home in the suburbs.

    • @JYYB
      @JYYB ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Depending on where they want to live, there are many nice, beautiful safe places in America, you just have to look it up not all of America is bad you know!
      I do understand help is needed and nice, in the end it’s up to them and see where it takes them.

    • @nataliee5236
      @nataliee5236 ปีที่แล้ว

      ​@@JYYB we know. But a lot of America is bad, especially for women of colour, especially for mothers of colour. Ya'll literally have one school shooting a week. This is not the time for you to defend America lol.

    I love Saikung, slower living, expat-friendly, awesome views. The 4th place you were showed had the best room for Auntie Rose. I hate how often helpers are mistreated in HK and it shows even in the floorplans.

    • @iamkareno
      @iamkareno  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I agree! Love sai Kung and the last home had a great space for auntie rose

    If I had a choice between HK and US, I wouldn't even need to think twice about it. HK is literally one of the best places I've ever lived, it's such a fun city, easy access to everything and it's safe. I move back and forth between HK and UK and I always feel so depressed and sad when I'm in the UK. Can't wait to be back in Hong Kong again.

    Dove is sooo smart for her age, she seems to know what the doggie is not supposed to be eating @6:48. She’s so observant.

    • @iamkareno

    Judging by how well dove has been raised. Baby number 2 is a must 🥰🥰

    @meemeelipota ปีที่แล้ว +66

    DOVIE IS SO ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! when she has her "oh" face she looks exactly like Leo. She's so precious!! And her saying she wanted to go to school HAHAHA I laughed so hard!!!

    • @meemeelipota
      @meemeelipota ปีที่แล้ว +2

      omg she's such a smart baby!!! realised cookie shouldn't be eating and she was about to interact herself but knew it was better to let you know!

    I know you mentioned this in the vlog already, but your skin is really glowing! I can't believe Dove wants to go to school now 😭I've been following you for so many years now, and I'm just grateful that you continue to share snippets of your life with us. Love this vlog as usual ❤

    If you bring your nanny you’ll have to pay for the cost of living in CA. My brother lives in Chicago and with 1 child he was paying $60K plus her health insurance. They are now paying more with another child. Just something to think about if you decide to move back!

  • @virginiaraine2207

    Honestly you moving to Hong Kong really showed me as a viewer and fan, how much happier you could be . You seem so at peace ; surrounded by family a feeling of safety and exploring a city and enjoying life with your precious baby , I think that is worth pursuing that life of pure happiness .

    • @iamkareno
      @iamkareno  ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The 4th house was nice. I liked that the living room view was not obstructed.

    I also have been thinking about life, and how I want to be more quiet, and low-key. and omgosh Dove really is the cutest!

    • @iamkareno

    I just watched your lovely video. When you said “Why am I telling the whole internet this” I smiled. You are telling the whole internet because your heart is filled with joy over the thought of having another baby. Joy is amplified when shared. Keep sharing ❤️❤️❤️

  • @taylorburdette2518
    @taylorburdette2518 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I feel like it’s easier to stay in HK since you have help there anddd new baby can learn the language 💗I also have to mention the U.S is so unsafe right now. I remember how relieved you were moving. Best of luck💜

    Hello from another who just relocated back to HKG! Sai Kung tbh is 20 mins from Choi Hung on a minibus.... totally easy to commute via transportation! I'd also recommend Clear Water Bay, buses are great there too..! I currently am on Lamma and with the ferries every half hour, its pretty good!
    If your budget is similar to what these houses are, I'd recommend other village house areas (shatin, taiwai, fotan) that offer the convenience and comfort.

  • @SA-ol6nv
    @SA-ol6nv ปีที่แล้ว

    I used to live in Discovery Bay and it was my favourite thing about hk. I could spend the day in the busy city but come back home to a calm and chill neighborhood. Living by the water was also amazing and the community in DB is so friendly.

    I’ve been following you since I was in middle school many many years ago for your fashion content and I just needed to comment to say I don’t normally follow TH-camr’s once they begin their family stuff since I can’t fully relate at this current moment but even though I don’t watch family content, whenever you have a new video I always tune in 🥺 I’ve been following every family vid since the pregnancy announcement video and Baby Dove has grown so much and it’s absolutely adorable seeing her talking as well! I’m wishing you all the best in the journey to a new home and potentially a new baby as well!

    @sydneychristensen2058 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow, that city was so beautiful. If I could live somewhere like that I'd never want to come back to America, seriously!! I think the pace there would be great for a young growing family, so peaceful and those homes were gorgeous. Plus you could keep your helper without having to struggle with visa troubles.

    Well the United States is a bigger country so it may seem like there is a lot going on here and like it is unsafe, but it really isn't. We just have a huge population and things going on around the country. There is a lot of opportunity here and honestly I feel like there is nowhere like here. I've lived in Spain for a few months and there is no place like home in the United States. Plus many amazing schools and Dove will thrive.

    @ningh2118 ปีที่แล้ว

    Beautiful family❤❤gut feeling is to stay in Hong Kong till baby #2 is a few months even 1yo so you get enough help. Then if you still want you can go back to OC for bigger space. By this time bigger sis would be enjoying school better already. Anyways, good luck and I’m sure you will have a clear path following your heart❤

    My previous employer wanted to take me to states but my application got denied twice:( So I recommend to get a tourist visa for her first and not a working visa. Some of my friends made it to the USA but with tourist visa. I believe they got 10 years tourist visa. So that would be OK.

    • @walyduj

    Dove is so gentle and adorable 🥰
    School can be awesome lol I can’t wait for dove to be a big sister.
    Also idk why people are saying “America is not safe” ???? There are many other states one can live and is safer, especially way safer than California. So sad how people think. Where ever you are happiest is the best place, no matter where you end up. Good luck

      @@iamkareno "Tofu-dreg project" (Chinese: 豆腐渣工程; pinyin: dòufuzhā gōngchéng) is a phrase used in the Chinese-speaking world to describe a poorly constructed building, sometimes called just "Tofu buildings". The phrase was coined by Zhu Rongji, the former premier of the People's Republic of China, on a 1998 visit to Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province to describe a poorly-built set of flood dykes in the Yangtze River.
