      China is too big. For European countries, the inter-provincial distance in China is far greater than that in Europe, and the cultural differences and changes are also far greater than in Europe. The so-called foreign tourism in Europe is nothing compared with China's inter-provincial tourism.

      China is amazing but still very inaccessible for westerners. Your bank cards don’t work, credit cards aren’t accepted and even trying to use cash is problematic. If you’re not set up on wechat, which virtually impossible for foreigners, it’s extremely hard to do anything in China.

    888rmb for a buffet of this quality is extraordinary! It will easily cost a few hundred pound in UK restaurant especially new year event. You guys were so lucky. Glad you enjoy for feast. Best wishes to you both and thankyou for making all these beautiful videos about China.

    Take it easy with physical activities during recovery. Sanya is quite pricey compared with the rest of China. Lots of Dongbeiers bought properties in Hainan to escape the bitter winter cold. Kind of like New Englanders stay at Florida during cold seasons. I have the same "Don't waste room on veggies" mentality😃. Always take some digestive enzymes if you are not sure whether the foods contain milk products.

    11:05 In the Philippines it is popular and you eat it with shrimp paste (Bagoong) and sometimes a bit chili.
    It is very interesting to see how Hainan specialties are southeast asian specialities as well.. I think I heard that quite a lot people who emigrated from there and other typical former emigration regions of China, are remigrated back to here, Hainan, and brought those treats with them.. Or maybe some of them of course brought their stuff to southeast asia in the beginning.. I think its a mix of both.. At least the mentality, culture and other stuff I saw in Hainan has a lot of southeast asian vibes

    Such a lovely video, we went from Shanghai to Sanya on the 24th, and yes just recovered from covid. Stayed in Yalong Bay Sheraton, terrible food. However the food outside was out standing, we ate soo much. Went Houhai as well as we met up with a friend there and stayed for the day. Went diving in the main Aquarium at Atlantis one day which was great. It was nice to see you with all your mixture of friends, thats what I love about Shanghai, its such a melting pot, however this year we hade no xmas and no new year party, as all of our friends have left China for good, we are the only ones left now. We ended up having a Wechat group video call on NYE. And yer the Buffets at the resorts are crazy prices, even during the week. Best food we had was at a Hainan restaurant in the Marriot Resort, Thai, out near the supermarket as well as Korean BBQ, but the Hainan chicken had me hooked. After having Covid the week before we traveled and then a week in the sun, it was really a good way to recover, we both feel great now. Roll on the end of Feb and off to Thailand for some more sun, feels so great to be open again, people are happy and optimistic now, I am loving China again.

    The tradition of "uvas de la suerte" originated in Spain.
    As the clock strikes each hour to 12 you eat a grape.
    Go for the small ones so you don't choke.
    My first New Year's in Spain, I just about choked trying to stuff and eat all 12 by the stroke of midnight.
    Good thing there was a magnum of champagne nearby.

    Hey, it’s so glad to see u enjoying your trip in Sanya, and just for your safety and a bit of more info, it’s not really recommended to get a ear cleaning service anywhere else other than hospital (for people who have the wet type of earwax or stacking too much), normally the earwax will move itself out when chewing and speaking, and actually they could protect your ear along with other things on skin to some extent
