    What an incredible guy... so warmhearted and welcoming even though we were complete strangers. Chinese people are some of the most hospitable people we've ever encountered.
    What's a random act of kindness that you've encountered?

      Father and son.
      I love this video
      I love watching your father's having full admiration for this old man's simple life. Don't you wish you could have this back in UK???
      Chinese people by nature are very friendly,non-aggressive.
      Sadly this is slowly changing for the younger generations because of these anti-china rhetoric from the Five eyes.
      Nevermind, this reminds me of those days when I was living in HK (NT).
      My grandfather was the most friendliest person on earth, always smiling, smoking one of his rolled up cigarettes, even offered his tobaccos to the British soldiers, when they were doing military military exercise upon the hills.
      Good old days.
      But will not return.
      Apologies, my uncle should offer both of you Green tea with some organic honey.

      I went back to rural China back in 2007 to explore my roots. A tiny village community. What people dont know is that the Gov actually expanded electricity and running water access to these very remote areas. They also created aqua farming facilities for them. They didnt have to BUT THEY DID. Not a lot of people know this. This is why the people of China trust their government.

    Oil, 綠茶產自江浙,不是山西的,老伯是以他認為珍貴的東西來招待你的,所以才叫那女士多給你們一些...。
    中國人是愛和平和及友好的民族,我們有句名言:有朋自遠方來 不亦樂乎;意思是:朋友遠道而來,歡喜快樂。對大部分中國人來說,只要經過門前也是客人,招待遠道而來的客人喝杯茶,是很平常禮貌的事。這一點,對於習慣人與人之間保持距離的西方人來說,是很大差別。
    如果所有西方民眾都能客觀公正的了解到真實的中國,拒絕政客、傳媒因私利製造出來的謊言,那麼世界將會減少很多紛亂,地球人民會活得更和平美好。
    期待你們更多新視頻,讓世界上更多人了解到real China.

    Thank you Barret! This is very precious. Now many foreigners are willing to go deep into the countryside of China to tell the true stories, to tell the truth about ordinary Chinese people. This is very precious especially during such time that many foreign governments and their people are hostile towards China. I am so happy that you enjoyed making this video and were welcomed! You deserve very warm hospitality!
