      @@GarciaFamily4 I have been enjoying your videos for some time. However, you may be aware that expats who post videos in praise of life in China ( the Barretts, Matt of Jayoe Nation, Jason ) can be accused of being funded by the evil Chinese Government. Can you tell your followers whether you are funded by the CCP ?

      I must correct you not to read the western media all the time!They are full of falsehood and self-righteous, the US infects tens of thousands of cases a day and does not see them reported, China infects dozens of cases because of imported cases as if the whole world is going to hell!Considering that China has 1.4 billion people so far with only a few dozen cases by the end of the year (mostly infected by the virus brought in from abroad) what a remarkable achievement it is, unlike your western countries which treat human life with such contempt!

      @david wong I know what you’re saying, but we seldom get accused of being paid by the CCP. I think the reason why is because we don’t care to discuss politics in our videos. Actually our videos aren’t even aimed to be about China, but rather a glimpse into daily lives here. Thanks for watching!

      @@GarciaFamily4 actually in China we talk about politics a lot , criticize the government everyday too by Chinese social medias. The national tv medias have been criticizing the government everyday, we have hot line number 12345 in every province for the complaints of residents, 8 languages in Beijing including English service. Just mostly constructive instead of destructive. The only difference is we can’t organize a lot of people to overthrow the government , because it will led to chaos . 1.4 billions population is difficult to manage. we are not like the western media says like Chinese can not criticize the government. Hopefully you have a good week!

    I lived in Boise and Eagle for 10 years before moving to China in 2006, so now have been in China on and off (when not traveling in S.E Asia) for almost 14 years. I love it here and really get frustrated by all the negative media regarding the country. Anyways good to see people showing the positive side of life here. Recently I started recording vlogs in order to showcase a more positive perspective of the country and the wonderfully friendly people that is the real China. Thanks for sharing.

For instance, about Xinjiang, becoz the western audience don’t understand the majority and minorities’ languages, they twisted the words of the interviewees when translated them, selected photos, cut videoes, used grey filters and bribed some Chinese individuals to prove the presupposed conclusions, to make fake news. Dilraba and Tong Liya who performed in Spring Fratival Gala 2021 are from Xinjiang. If there is torture, isn’t that strange?! Use their brain plz.

    Worked in China in 2019 and it was the best year in my career's endeavour. This amazing country has progressed so much since my 1st trip there in 1999. The Chinese in China are truly hospitable and eager to exchange and embrace cultural nuances among foreign visitors. Your kids are going to grow up wonderfully in this kind of positive environment. Everyone should at least visit China once in their lifetime to wallow in the astonishing array of senses. Good choice Mr and Mrs Garcia.

    I used to interned at Boise Idaho for 3 months. When I saw that drone clip, that reminds me of so much memory there. The capital has a Main Street before it. Boise is such a chill and quiet place. I liked to walk down that main street in downtown. There werent that many people even in the weekend. When I interned there, I lived in Meridian.
    I’m in China now. Really hope that the relationship between these two countries could get better and people understand each other more.

      @alexgang408 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      GarciaFamily4 yes! The apartment I rent has a water park right across it. I already forgot the names of many places I went to when I was there. Idaho definitely has a lot of beautiful nature to offer. I remember I took a 3 hours train trip that went through forests, creeks, grassland finally end up somewhere in the mountain. We got off the train and i remember the guide said that people used to come here to dig for gold and diamond or some sort. So they had this tiny market where we could buy a bag of rocks and we rinsed them to get bunches of colorful stones. That trip was really dreamy. I saw people tubing in the creek (or lake?). I also went to Sun Valley to ski. Nampa, Boise and another place together is called treasure valley.
      I still have a couple close friends who live in Boise. And they still sent me some goofy pictures asking me to visit them. Like they sent me a pic of a Vietnamese restaurant called “thang long” the other day 😂.
      Idaho is just so chill and different from the busy life in CQ China. I can totally relate to your feeling and homesick, reversely. In that, I’m more used to a fast-paced lifestyle. but that memory of Idaho never goes away. Sometimes the memory of I waking up in bed in a quite Sunday morning in Meridian still strikes me in my mind. Hope you get to go back soon!

      And China who thinks they stand for peace and stability in the South China Sea yet want to take over the entire region especially Taiwan and potentially start A major war with devastating consequences. I'd say it's sad for the 1.4 billion people who live in China and are brainwashed by the CCP.

    Do not involve too much politics just keep a neutral eye to view the good and bad. You will feel more peaceful and ease. Also it's a very good opportunity for your kids to learn Chinese. When they so young it's easy and quick to pick up. It's another personal skill and assets in the future. China is a huge market and developing fast. Chinese people usually treat foreigner nicely.

      @Narglar Wing those nationalism are because China have been invaded and distorted by the west for hundred years since 1840 in Qing dynasty , that’s a shame and painful history for Chinese , expeclly the western countries still distort China today which make a lot Chinese sensitive and got angry. I am not sure if you really live in China “many years “. As a universal value for human being , you are the client to visit another house, is it decent to keep finger point other families? If those problems happened in that school, why you don’t complain to the teachers and headmaster? why you don’t call 12345 to complain about that? My relatives live in the USA , his kids got bullied many times, they even called him Chinese virus and hit him and the policemen were not even cared for about that. Call the xi,an policemen I am 100% sure they will take care of that if your “ story is real “ . I believe if you respect your self enough, you will earn respect from others , Chinese also get discrimination in China, you could be discriminated in your own country. I totally agree with “ when you can’t tolerant people where you live , just leave “. Everybody is different in any society, that’s the reality, when you benefit from the society and can’t tolerant the any flaw , just leave then .
